Since few years a special courses only for black belt holders take place between December and January each year. The last course was held in Lodz in January 2012. We wrote about that in our news here: http://www.itfeurope.org/NL2012-01-07.html.

However, there were courses missing which would be dedicated only to the colour belt holders. As there was a demand and many instructors asked for it, the club Centre Taekwon-Do in Lodz leaded by Mr. Michal Cytryniak, 4th Degree, has organized a seminar mostly for 10th – 1st cup holders.

Mr. Jaroslaw Suska the most known and titled polish competitor was invited to conduct the seminar. Mr. Suska boasting of the best technical level in the history of Polish Taekwon-Do is able to demonstrate exceptionally easily and powerful the most difficult Taekwon-Do techniques. He is also a very qualified and successful instructor at MKS Lewart Lubartow. He graduated from the University of Physical Education and is continuously working as a PE teacher at one of the schools in Lubartow.

The skills of Mr. Suska made an enormous impression on the young participants. The main goal of his demonstrations during the classes was to make the practitioners believe that the techniques that sometimes may look impossible are possible.

After the seminar Mr. Suska praised the youth. He said their commitment and enthusiastic attitude lifted him up.

As there was so much interest it was decided that the seminar dedicated to the colour belt holders will become a regular event in the calendar of the PTA.
