Saturday 9 March temperature is expected to be 40'C!
We still have class (cancel if above 42'C) but leave it up to parents' judgement if you wish to attend.
Make sure you stay hydrated, and take rests if you feel unwell.
Also:
Monday 11 Mar is a public holiday, so we will be closed that day.
Enjoy the hot weather and stay cool!
note:
We used to cancel at 38'C many years ago, but after a few heatwaves of multiple weeks of everyday above 39'C, we decided we will continue training but at reduced pace, otherwise in this new climate environment we will miss too many classes!
Resilience, anti-fragility and adaptation to changing conditions for the future is what we choose to focus on.
Take care!

<< Flashback Friday >>
Before Grand Master Lee arrived in Australia, he opened his own Dojang in Seoul as well as taught Taekwondo to American soldiers.
Master Lee actually served in a special Korean Unit of the US Army instead of the regular Korean Army (Korea has mandatory military service for all males) as he spoke English and passed the required entrance exams (he was also an English teacher).
Here are some pictures from before his arrival in Australia.
