In the weekend from 19 – 20 – 21 of September there was a technical seminar in the southern part of the Netherlands. Master Willy van de Mortel 7th Degree has invited Mr. Mariusz Steckiewicz 6th degree from Finland to conduct this seminar, like in 2003 and 2004.

There were 70 people coming from Belgium and from all around Netherlands.

On the Friday evening there was a kids-class, with a mix of funny games related to Taekwon-Do and new technical exercises. Kids enjoyed it really.

On the Saturday and Sunday there were 2 sessions a day. The main subject on the whole seminar was “ How to generate power”. Mariusz explaining his own idea regarding this subject. With a very good understandable theory and exercises were you must try and feel it he reach the students with it. Every time he was asking if they were feeling the different, don’t do only things because you must it. Ask always why and listen to you own body, these words were coming back frequently.

The comments after the seminar were good and question came already when Mariusz Steckiewicz were coming for his next seminar?
