Inscape House School students take on Taekwando

After five weeks of learning new skills in Taekwondo sessions at Inscape House School with British Taekwondo Instructor Jason Mayoh, students visited the Olympic Taekwondo Centre to put their hard work into practice.

They spent time watching the professionals train and then took part in a Taekwondo session, showing off the moves they learnt with paralympic Taekwondo athlete Amy Truesdale. They also participated in a workshop with Paralympic Silver Medallist Beth Munro, where they learnt about what it takes to be an athlete, how she got into the sport and what her day-to-day training life is like. The students also had the opportunity to ask her questions about her life, including what she did before Taekwondo. The students engaged brilliantly and were curious about her life and the sport.

The students had a great time learning the sport of Taekwondo during the last half term, and visiting the Centre was an amazing brand-new experience for them all, which they thoroughly enjoyed!
