Sparring Competition

2009-10-19T17:34:00.008+08:00

Since there will be a MBW sparring competition that will be held during 14th or 15th of November, E.X. Academy is currently hosting a sparring training package for all Taman S.E.A. people!

For a measly RM40, you can attend sparring training continuously for 3 weeks, starting from 19th October to 14th November! You can attend as many as you like, and the price will be the same. If you only attend once, you still have to pay RM40, so it's your loss if you don't turn up for practice.

Butir-butir lanjut ialah :-

Price: RM40
Time: 8 - 9.30pm
Day: Everyday, including Saturday and Sunday, 19 Oct - 14 Nov
Venue: E.X. Taekwondo Academy

Don't miss this rare chance to enhance your sparring skills! For inquiries, call Beh at 012-4555817.

P.S. This training is not compulsory, and you may participate in the competition without attending the training. But, there is a filtering of applicants who wish to participate in the COMPETITION. Attending the training will help you train better, giving a better chance of entering the competition.

New Event

2009-08-18T19:32:00.002+08:00

Hi Members,

Our academy is organizing another event during the school holiday ,
Check out the details in the EVENT page.

E.X. TAEKWONDO ACADEMY

E.X. Academy

Sparring Competition @ Kuala Lipis, Pahang

2009-08-03T22:40:00.006+08:00

Where? Kuala Lipis, Pahang
When? 2nd August 2009, Sunday. Whole day.
People? 6 from Taman SEA

Early in the morning, 6 of us (Kok Keong, Mun yi, Amelia, Jason, Huey Chee and Wai Phun) left Taman SEA to meet up with Sir Ben Wong after the Gombak toll. Somehow, your awesome seniors managed to make it there safely, where a lot of last minute shirt tucking in occurred.

Our group was the brightest among the 4 cars present, with two outstanding banana-like people. Out of the four cars, 3 were Honda's. LOL.

Made the long 2 hours plus drive to Kuala Lipis, where everything became more and more ulu-like. There was a point in time when Kok Keong and Jason agreed that it looked a lot like Seremban.

Stopped at a mamak for food. Roti canai and drinks. Wai Phun regretted not ordering more.

After that it was time for the competition, nearly got led into the wrong place at first. AIR CONDITIONED HALL. So cold, that I wanted my jacket.

Sparring competition was mainly for primary school kids, and some secondary. We were told that it was somehow like a MSSD for them.

Sorry to say, but it wasn't very well organized. Even Taman Sea's one flowed smoothly compared to this. Perhaps not enough manpower? The waiting time between bouts at first was a killer.

And since it was little kids, it was probably the only time you'll see the referee help them tie vest, put on guards and pick them up when they fall down. == But at least we got the experience of standing in the ring and making judgments.

Made new friends, and Sir Aiman found out how lame Seaparkians are. He claims we have killed his brain cells.

Lunch was provided, using our hands as spoons. Quite an experience watching Sir Ben eating with his hands as well.

The competition ended around 6 or 7pm. Had a quick stop before heading back to PJ. We could have had a durian fest. But, SOMEONE's (who just came back from US, guess who) mommy was looking for her.

So we had to head back ourselves first. Luckily it was all the way straight. Or your awesome seniors might still be lost somewhere in the uluness of Pahang.

Latest Update

2009-07-27T18:12:00.004+08:00

Members,

We will be having 1 event this coming Sunday (2/8/2009).
Please visit our Event page for more details.

The pricing structure for the fees has been changed slightly.
We have listed out the available time slot for different type of classes.
Please visit our schedule page for more details.

E.X. Academy

Here comes the T-Shirt

2009-07-21T23:24:00.005+08:00

I have collected the T-shirt!!

For those who paid for it, please collect yours from me (Your sir KK ).

For your information, my friend that went to collect with me got the 1st piece, because he thinks it is a very cool t-shirt. (Mia: because it is!!)

Announcement: Pricing Structure.

2009-07-20T16:04:00.005+08:00

The pricing structure for the fees has been changed slightly.

Now, E.X. Taekwondo Academy is offering two kinds of classes, normal class and sparring class. Normal class times depends on the students and availability of coaches, however sparring classes can be held any night 8pm - 9.30pm.

You can either take a normal or sparring class. Or even both.

Prices are as follows.

MBW members (Those who are already training with any MBW clubs/centers)
1 class per week (either normal or sparring) - RM40
2 classes per week (either two normal, two sparring, or one normal one sparring) - RM50

Outsiders
1 class per week - RM60
2 classes per week - RM70

As seen from above, just by adding RM10, you can get an additional class per week, which is VERY worth it.

Normal class syllabus will cover everything for example, self defense, performance art (fancy kicking!), technique sparring, 1 step sparring, pattern, and general Taekwondo stuff. Whereas the sparring class will only focus on sparring, nothing else.

Personally, I recommend that you take the normal and sparring combination.

SIGN UP OK. =)

MSSD: Congrats!

2009-07-19T17:06:00.002+08:00

MSSD is over and done with, proper update about it will be up soon.

For now, congratulations and well done to all the fighters. Also many thanks to those who went to help out, especially the coaches.

Without all the help, we would probably be in the same chaotic mess that the MSSD people were in.

Prepare for MSSS and the next tournament. Train hard.

PS: MSSD is just the beginning of our journey, we have a long way to go.

Best Wishes To All Seaparkienz Fighters

2009-07-16T01:47:00.003+08:00

Best wishes to all the fighters in MSSD from Taman S.E.A. ,

No matter Win , lose or draw, as long as you do your best ,

you are consider a winner.

Best wishes from all the coaches and trainers.

We are proud of your performances during these days.

Good Luck.

Thank You.

The Blog Address

2009-07-06T12:59:00.004+08:00

Attention to all the members..

Since we have decided the name of our academy,

The blog address will be changing to http://extaekwondo.blogspot.com in 2 days time.

Please spread the word. =)

E.X. Sparring Team

2009-07-04T17:52:00.008+08:00

For the sparring team, we decided that instead of nominating people, it's open to all who wants to join.

HOWEVER, not everyone will be able to join.

Firstly, remember that a sparring team is different from a sparring class. This team will be sent to participate in competitions, whereas if you do NOT want to participate, it's better to join the sparring class.

Another important thing is parental permission to join the sparring team. Obviously, when kicking each other, this may result in injuries right? So some parents might not be too keen.

And keep in mind that like stated in the previous post, the training fees are RM5 per month, which is actually used just to cover the electricity bill. The schedule of the training will only be decided after picking the members of the sparring team.

So, how, you ask are we going to pick people?

We're gonna hold an audition/interview.

Date: 11 July 2009
Time: 11am onwards (umm just realized got the pattern competition, will ask kk about it)
Place: E.X. Academy Training Center, Taman Megah

So if you are interested, please attend the interview.

Oh, and also please be aware that if you wanna join this team, you at least need shin guards and arm guards.

If any questions, you can call Kok Keong, I guess.

And spread the word, cause not everyone reads this blog. I think.

P/S :
For those who having pattern competition and prefect's AGM, you guys can come later , because the interview will be starting from 11a.m. and end around 4pm.
If those who are interested but really can't make it, kindly look for Keith Tan for further arrangement.

E.X. Sparring Team

2009-07-02T21:50:00.003+08:00

Attention to all the coaches,

Every coach have to nominate 2 person for E.X. Sparring Team before this Saturday.

Then we will pick the best among the nominees.

Sekian terima kasih.

The E.X. Fighters will receive the E.X. windbreaker.
The monthly fee will be RM 5.
The schedule of training will be decided soon.

2009-07-01T00:27:00.013+08:00
