Big congratulation from all at Leeds Lions to all the clubs who competed in the competition in Germany last weekend, they came back with a total of 13 Gold, 9 Silver and 8 Bronze medals. Along with our very own AllStars there were also kids from Quest, Scorpions. Liverpool Academy, Kings, NTC, BTS and Chi taekwondo. Well done all!

2011
Student of the year: Macy Simmons
Highlight of the Year: Knowing that Michael was losing a sparring match 8:7 with 10 seconds to go, seeing him look at the score, then telling me afterwards if thought he was the winning colour so didn’t attack! Classic!
Second Highlight: Michael being slightly concussed after a bout and asking the same questions 20 times on the way back home. Still we managed to convince him that the England women’s netball team had helped him to get changed.
Third Highlight: The day at the British Open. Brilliant.
Fourth Highlight: Taking Michael to train with Master Sykes in Doncaster and him finding out that Steve Jennings was teaching the class. The reply of f’ing awesome sums it up quite well.
Lowlight of the Year: Some parents not understanding that running a taekwondo club is very time consuming, and comes at the expense of family, friends and a private life, lol.
Challenge for 2012: To make sure all of the students finish 2012 better at taekwondo than at the start of 2012
Second Challenge: To convince parents that I have no plans to stop teaching in 2012 (not sure if that’s a positive or negative, lol)
Third Challenge: To triple the number of students we have competing at tournaments.
Fourth Challenge: To not bring a grumpy mood to any taekwondo class during all of 2012.
Finally, thanks to all who know the Leeds Lions, have a great Xmas and all the very best for 2012.
