What have been their successes?
➢ Patterns are an essential part of martial arts training. ➢ We train in the CORE classes on the last week of each month ➢ In recent years the Patterns competitions in the UK have massively improved in that: ➢ they are now judged by a panel of black belts ➢ The scores are averaged and displayed on a screen instantly and transparently
27/12/2017 10
➢ Unfortunately most competitions in the UK are in the Midlands and hence 3 hours+ drive ➢ We have 2 Nationally Qualified judges in the clubs ➢ Aiden Palmer competed in the National Poomsae Championships (In Nottingham last weekend) ➢ We are planning to take a team to a Patterns competition in Basingstoke in June 2018
➢ The Sports Pathway focuses on Preparing students for Olympic Style Sparring competitions ➢ Specialist coaches run these development classes on Monday, Tuesdays and Saturdays ➢ Martial Arts training is centred around combat, and sparring competition is the ultimate test of nerve and skills
27/12/2017 11
➢ The club has invested in Electronic Scoring equipment so that our members can get correct competition preparation ➢ This year our small team has competed and medalled around the country British Masters in London, Cadet Selection Championships in Doncaster and the National Championship in Manchester
➢ Very successful season with five events – excellent opportunities to advertise the club to the public and prospective students ➢ New team members joining from core classes ➢ Fantastic opportunity to learn new skills – transferable across pathways and core classes ➢ Retained team members – who are still enjoying it and coming back – eager to keep learning!
27/12/2017 12
➢ Most successful demonstration at the Littledown Fireworks night last month – slicker, faster and better than ever! ➢ Smashing slabs of ice to great effect in front of massive crowds! ➢ Great confidence building for students – performing in front of strangers!
➢Get a copy of your child’s next grading syllabus so you can see what they need to learn ➢Encourage general fitness: jogging, skipping, own body weight exercises, press up's, burpees, sit up's etc. If you are unsure ask an instructor to give you some ideas or variation
➢All can be done at home inside or outside and key to get their heart rate up. ➢Stretching - again ask instructors for ideas if you are not
➢Holding a kick target if you have one for your child and practice all kicks ➢Only needs to be a couple of times a week but will make a big difference ➢Your engagement is a big part is helping progress.

Littledown is “The Hub” centre for the club and the other clubs are Satellites

Littledown CORE classes are often oversubscribed and students will benefit from training at other venues that are less busy

Green tags and above need to train twice a week to progress through the Grading Syllabus

Students should try and train at our other venues and with other DTA coaches in order to maximise their learning potential.

Feedback from members and parents is always
lesson plans to make them enjoyable and engaging

Support – Please trust us that we know what we are doing but be supportive of your children. Don’t push them to be Olympic standard overnight but be positive and help develop that relationship between pupil and instructor
