Lots to Do – including Taekwondo at Lakers !

Lakers is always on the look out for new activities for our members, so we were delighted when Rory Murphy volunteered to lead an all new Taekwondo class. Rory is a black belt in Taekwondo and has been an amazing influence on our members who have a huge respect for their new Sabom (Instructor). You can see from our pictures that our members are already a dab hand at certain moves, and are enjoying learning how to hold their moves and stances correctly.

Taekwondo is a sport with a long list of benefits including:

• Improved muscle tone and appearance
• Increased strength and stamina
• Improved confidence and self-esteem
• Improved flexibility
• Improved agility and reflexes
• Improved concentration and focus
• Improved leadership skills
• Greater self-discipline & patience
• Reduced stress

Classes have only been running for a couple of weeks, and already the feedback from members and parents shows this new class as a resounding success.  Thank you Rory for your support! and well done to all our members who are working hard at this fantastic new sport!

If you have a skill you can share, and would like to volunteer, or are free to support one of our other sports at Lakers please get in touch with mark@lakers.ie. We can guarantee you will have fun with Lakers, learn new skills and meet some amazing people.
