We are excited about the return of Master Paul Olson, accomplished
Poomsae Coach, and the learning opportunity that we have with his knowledge and experience that he will be sharing during this learning weekend of Poomsae.
Friday (August 8) Instructors/Leadership Poomsae class (invite only):
We will start Friday (August 8) with an Instructors/Leadership Poomsae class (invitation only). This will be prep work for the foundation of the weekend for Instructors and Leadership that need a deeper understanding of Poomsae. If you think you might be a good fit for that class, please contact Master Boltz.
Instructors/Leadership Poomsae (invitation only): 6:00-8:00pm�Cost $75
Saturday (August 9) color belt Poomsae:
All the color belt sessions will be structured with learning during the first portion of the session and finish with a Poomsae Ribbon competition. This will place participants into groups of 4 where they get to compete with others in the form they just worked on and putting to use the information they just learned. This will be a fun way to wrap up each session.
Special Note: The sessions are based on rank and advanced students can participate in multiple sessions (and gain greater knowledge over the day/weekend). The cost will be for one or all eligible sessions. This means you pay for the session for your rank and any additional lower rank sessions are included.
