TTU hoved dojang_850x357

Dear TTU members.

I hope you had a good summer. I also had a good summer. At this year's sommerfstival we were over 400 participants. It was a very harmonious festival this year. I want to thank all instrutører and participants................
After the summer festival was the Korea trip. At this year's Korea trip there were 23 participants. We were on TaekwowndoAcademy at Chosun University fore one week and we were a week in Seoul with Ki-training and sight-seeing and shopping. (Four participants had two weeks of additional kyrugi training at Chosun University). We had a nic trip. But we were a bit unlucky with the weather last week. It rained very much in Seoul.

When I was in Korea I received terrible news from Norway. Our good member Diderik Aamodt Olsen from Nesoddtangen Taekwondo club lost his live on Utøya. I had made honorary diploma an black belt in Kukkiwon. After I came back from vacation, I visited Nesoddtangen Taekwondo Club with members and Diderik family and friends. It was a nice memory ceremony for Diderik.

This was sad news. But I have good news to us all.

We have now TTU main Dojang in Bergen! We have purchased Helldal school from Bergen city. The valuation was 6 million, and it is a gift from Trond Mohn.

This is an old school that we need to renovate and change for it to suit our purposes. We want to build new Dojang. For the future we will organize several seminars in TTU main dojang! At the same time, I would like this to be a center that presents Norwegian and Korean culture.

Therefore, we need your help and support. I hope you all will make an effort for us and future generations.

Now we are starting a new training season. We must keep good concentration and high effort. I wish you luck!

Sincerely, Grandmaster Cho
