Just to quickly update our members. All in person classes that are currently running are staying the same. No change to kids class in person training We know a lot of you have questions after yesterday’s announcement but rest assured there are no changes to our current in person training! Having said that, we know many of you are missing class and would like to get back into the dojang. Trust us we feel the same and can’t wait to have you back! Unfortunately we still only h...ave limited numbers allowed for in person training and it is for kids only. Remember we are doing zoom classes as well that run while the in person class is running. We have had a few members take this opportunity to continue their training and it has been a lot of fun actually! It was difficult at first but now it is getting easier and the students enjoy interacting with the other students at home! Please try this out and have some fun with the kids. Even if just for a few nights , the kids would love to see you also!! Please remember that all dues must still be handed in prior to the first of the month. For in person or zoom training. If you have any questions please contact us to set up a meeting time. As always thank you everyone for your understanding during this time. It’s been a long year and we are trying our best to keep running and be positive and your support is what keeps us going!! Thank you

This is just a friendly reminder that your April payments are due by March 31st. Thanks

I hope you all are having a great weekend. This is just a friendly reminder to please have your October payment in by September 30th. Thanks

Hello Everyone, just a reminder theres no class this evening. Its a holiday.

Just a reminder that Monday September 7th we are closed for the long weekend.

Good day members, We cannot wait to see a majority of our students return to training in just a few days. We just want to remind all students and parents that many changes have had to be made in order to begin classes again this fall.... Obviously due to Covid 19 these changes are a must in order to reopen successfully. We ask that all members take the time to read all posted signage inside and outside of the dojang. Our training and visitor policy can be found on the web site and numerous locations on site. Cleaning and sanitation stations are clearly marked and easy to find along with visitor and parent viewing requirements are also posted on site. Our school policy is in place to follow provincial health requirements and keep our members safe. We ask that everyone please follow tenets and show courtesy and respect to one another within the dojang. Instructors, Students and Family alike. It is our hope to make the transition to regular class as easy as possible for everyone, including your instructors as this is a major transformation for us also. Please when arriving to class, -stay in your vehicle until your class time has begun. -The waiting room is too small to have students arriving early and will be open only to parents of small children. -Please Show up to class in uniform. You may wear a track suit over top but the change rooms will still be closed. -Once the previous class has exited the building, the next class will be permitted to enter. Thanks to all of you for your understanding and we will see you this week on the mats Instructors of Family TKD

Please make sure your September payment is paid by August 31st. Thank You! Have a great weekend.

Feel free to nominate Mr Boudreau/Family Taekwon Do. Hes never been nominated and I think he really deserves it. He teaches all his knowledge to all of his students every week for 20 years.! https://www.facebook.com/124651797620486/posts/3123237784428524/

Good evening Family TKD members. Here is a new video for our beginner members to try out. The following exercises are great for new students to get a better feel for certain parts of the required movement. By taking a seated floor position the student can hold the kick longer and focus on striking tool. Once you feel stronger from the floor seated position move to standing with support from a chair or counter top. Enjoy https://youtu.be/cMmQBvNcpdM

Hello Family TKD members!! Hope this message finds you all doing well. I just wanted to take a moment and keep everyone updated on our current state as far as the school is concerned. As you can tell we will be keeping the dojang closed through the month of April. As we approach May we will of course give additional information and updates. For now continue to be diligent in staying home, stay safe and avoid going out unnecessarily. On a brighter note, as you may have notice...d, we have posted a number of videos on our Facebook page and the website. We have had lots of feed back as members try the workouts from their living rooms. Lots of four legged fury students trying out the classes as well,lol!! As we head into April we will continue to make more videos for the next few weeks, again until we have a new updates. I hope you take the time to try them out as though they are different, they are still a lot of fun. Tonight I will be training with Master Barker and Mr.White via live session from my home. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your dedication to the Family TKD school. A number of members have offered to continue their monthly training payment or half payment to help cover the cost of our lease on the dojang during this mandatory closure. Words cannot express how much this means to me, that even with the doors temporarily closed you still believe in the successes we have accomplished within those walls. I truly am and forever will be grateful. Over the next week my wife Stacey/Mrs. Boudreau and I will be sending out private messages to everyone just to keep in touch and see how you are doing. We truly are a family and we care for each and every single one in our TKD family. If there is anything that you or a family members needs, we are here to help. Take care and we will talk again soon. Taekwon Mr. Boudreau

Good afternoon members. As promised here is the first workout focusing on one technique to go along with your training videos. The first technique we are focusing on will be the downward kick.

Have fun and keep training. You might be at home but you are not alone!!... Mr. Boudreau https://youtu.be/vdBttWloFEY

Hello Family TKD members. Hope everyone is doing well and making the most out of our time spent in our isolation. Mrs.Boudreau, my sons Dominic and Mason and of course myself miss all of you very much. As most of you are aware we will most likely still be self isolating for a few more weeks. Hang in there we can make it through this I promise. Be strong and believe in your tenets. Mrs. Boudreau will be sending additional emails to everyone very soon on how we will be proceed...ing moving into April. In the meantime we, your instructors will be posting small workout and tutorial videos, along with some additional accessory work for you to try at home. We hope you enjoy and take part in these as they will be a lot of fun and give you something to do rather than binge watching your favourite Netflix show. Just kidding, go for it, get a whole season done in one day!! Bellow I have attached our first video. It is about 20min long. Lots of me talking for ever and ever just like at the dojang but still a fun fast little workout to try. This is my first time trying to teach via social media so please let me know what you liked about it and some things you would enjoy seeing in future posts. Thank you all for being so understanding in this strange time, Family is the best and we will see you all very soon! ENJOY!! https://youtu.be/dlJsStF2WmU See more

Dear Family Taekwon Do Students, Due to the worldwide effects of COVID-19, we have decided it is in the best interest for the health and safety of our community that we temporarily close our doors as of today March 17th. We do not have a time frame for the closure but well be listening closely to the government and CDCs recommendations and will re open when it is safe to train again. This was a very hard decision but if we can do our part to stop the spread of this virus, we feel like its the right thing to do. Just continue to monitor the Facebook page with any new information. Tiger Paws testing will be rescheduled. Please stay safe. We will miss all our students and families. Taekwon

March 13, 2020 RE: Tournament Cancelled Dear Masters, Instructors and Students,... The response to the upcoming Kamloops Invitational Friendship Tournament on March 21st has been overwhelmingly positive. Unfortunately,in light of the recent announcement by the British Columbia Public Health Officer with regards to the COVID-19 pandemic, our numbers will exceed the allowable limits. Although the risk of infection remains low, we feel in being responsible hosts we can no longer move forward with the tournament at this time and it is therefore cancelled. We look forward to reschedule the tournament for a future date when concerns have settled. Any tournament entry fees that have been paid will be refunded as soon as possible. Students are asked to see their instructor to receive a refund. We appreciate your patience while the details are sorted out. Thank you for your support. Be safe. All the best, David White and Ryan Oevermann

We are still open. Just disinfecting TKD more than normal. We are still having the test tomorrow. The belts and certificates will be handed out at Sunday classes. The Kamloops Tournament has be cancelled. We won't cancel classes unless health Canada advices otherwise. If yourself or your child are sick please stay home. Please use your discretion.
