Open House
Thursday, December 31, 2009 / 4:10 PM
Hey,
There is an open house performance rehearsal organised by the council on the 4th and 12th of January 2010. For those involved in this performance, I really hope you can keep yourselves free on the following days.
4th Jan [School Rehearsal]
6th Jan [Normal Training + Club Rehearsal]
12th Jan [School Rehearsal]
13th Jan [Actual Performance]
On the coming Monday, the duration of the rehearsal is from 1pm to 4pm. However, so far our rehearsed performance had several problems. Firstly, we do not have full attendance for even one time. Secondly, much prompting is needed. Lastly, we have not tried the performance with the music. Hence, we have to come down in the morning on Monday to carry out our own rehearsal and practise with the music before puting up a good show in front of the school. As you have noticed, I have set the time to be at 8am. I urge everone to be punctual even though it may not be official training. There are altogether 18 performers this time. The club needs every person to be responsible for your part in the performance so as to impress the juniors.
Generally...
Poomsae: Coordinated, Precise and a Loud Shout at the end
Self Defense: Aggresive, React Fast, Don't hesitate
Target Kicking: Scream and Shout, Move Super Fast
Plank Breaking: Shout and Scream, Break the plank, Kickers and Holders must adjust the distance
I have listed the individual points one would need to note. Please be clear of them and come for Saturday trainings if you have any doubts or want to practise more.
1. Yi Ling [Poomsae/Self D/Plank Breaking]
-Self D, after winning, you may want to go to the centre and bow before everyone gets up and leave the mat to signal the end of this showcase and that you won. Plank breaking, you will be holding the planks for Kai Yu and Bertram. You will be part of the human obstacle for Ren Jie's flying side kick.
2. Elizabeth [Poomsae/Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Poomsae, some changes were made in the training yeseday with regards to the formation. So just ensure that you are clear of your position. Plank breaking, you are holding a plank for Kai Yu.
3. Luo Hui [Poomsae/Plank Breaking]
-Poomsae, you will also have to note your position in the poomsae formation. Plank breaking, you are holding for Wei Jing.
4. Wei Jing [Poomsae/Self D/Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, the people holding your planks are Luo Hui, Jomain and Wen Jing. Do adjust the distance so that your strikes can break the planks.You will also be an obstacle for Ren Jie's flying side kick, beside Jaron.
6. Jomain [Self D/Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Plank Breaking, you are holding a plank for Wei Jing and you will do a side kick as an obstacle for Ren Jie's flying side kick.
7. Jaron [Self D/Target Kicking/ Plank Breaking]
-Plank Breaking, you are holding for Wen Jing's Back Hook and lying down beside Wei Jing as an obstacle for Ren Jie's flying side kick.
8. Sam [Self D/ Target Kicking/ Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, try to choose the 5 planks you are comfortable with doing your mega chop earlier. You are holding a plank for Bertram. Basil and Jonathan will help to set up the bricks.
9. Basil [Self D/Plank Breaking]
-Self D, I feel that you revived a bit too early after getting hit by Sam. There's a part where you got to stone quite long for Sam to finish hitting Jaron before you can use the pole to hit Sam. So maybe you can get up a little later so that after you grab the pole you can hit Sam without much lag time. Plank breaking, you will help to carry the bricks for Sam's mega chop.
10. Yit Khai [Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, I think you have not tried with the planks yet. So in the next training, you can familiarise yourself with the formation and try out the slamming kick and jumping back thrust. Ren Jie will be holding the plank for your jumping back thrust and Wei Qi will be holding the plank for your slamming kick. You are holding a plank for Ren Jie's flying side kick.
11. Jasmine [Target Kicking/ Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, you are holding a plank for Jonathan's slamming kick. You will need to know the formation so that you will know when and how to enter and exit.
12. Wei Qi [Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, you are holding a plank for Yit Khai's slamming kick. Just practise the formation more and it will be fine.
13. Zhen Ping [Target Kicking]
-Target Kicking, as yesterday was the first time you are doing the kicks, do train more in your free time. I'm sure you can be ready for the performance. Do ask if you have any doubts on the formations.
14. Ren Jie [Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Plank Breaking, you are holding a plank for Yit Khai's jumping back thrust. For your flying side kick, Yit Khai will be holding the plank at the end. Your human obstacles are Yi Ling, Kai Yu, Jomain's side kick, Jaron and Wei Jing. Just adjust their positions and the plank if necessary. I think the plank should not be too far from the last human obstacle because yesterday when I held the hand mitt, the distance was too far.
15. Bin Hao [Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, you are holding a plank for Wen Jing's back thrust.
16. Jonathan [Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, you will help with the breaks for Sam's mega chop and Jasmine will hold the plank for your slamming kick while Bertram will hold the plank for your jumping back thrust.
17. Kai Yu [Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, Yi Ling, Elizabeth and Yit Khai will hold the planks for your strikes. You will help to hold a plank for Bertram before becoming a human obstacle for Ren Jie's flying side kick.
18. Wen Jing [Target Kicking/Plank Breaking]
-Plank breaking, Bin Hao will hold a plank for your back thrust while Jaron will hold a plank for your back hook. You will help to hold a plank for Bertram and Wei Jing.
All the best, hope to have a great performance for Open House. Happy New Year!
Bertram

Those who have not been turning up for cca without very valid reasons will have to face the consequences and Dr Siva will not hesitate to dismiss you if necessary.
Just wanted to reinforce the new
attendance policy again.

be early for training. If you are NOT there for any ONE of the attendance takings without telling your section leaders beforehand, you will not be counted as present.
2. MCs and Parent's Letter (for absence from school and household emergencies only) are to be handed in to your section leaders by the NEXT training. Any MCs or Parent's Letter not handed in within one week of the absence will not be accepted. Only MCs are allowed for medical reasons.

anyway tomorrow is orientation for the j1s BUT j2 life goes on as per normal, fall in punctually at 330 outside the audi, full gi. guna will be training you guys.
j1s will be registering with joce (outside audi) at 315pm. we'll all be falling in together, then some peoples will be running off to lead them through orientation while the rest of you get to kick things DDD:
also considering that the comp is in LESS THAN TWO WEEKS, for tomorrow's training, pattern people will be doing patterns (those who aren't in orientation anyway), namely the il/ee?! jang and sa jang groups.
i actually need a Runner to run with me to coro halfway through tomorrow, so if any of you want to throw yourself at me, you're more than welcomed. just tell me plz thanks.
... in short:
J2s: TRAINING TOMORROW IS AS PER NORMAL
J1s reading this: 1. Wear dark tee and shorts
2. Be outside the audi, dressed, by 3.15pm to register with Joce
3. Bring 116$s, we'll give you cookie.

New aim for hctkd:
Gaobean says that by the time he returns (March), he wants to see beautiful 360s from us all. All. Otherwise, he will zham.So. This should be incentive enough for self training :D. We're training at the tkd room every weekday from 2-3pm onward (except for tomorrow, since there's X-country), so come down, grab mats and
practice. Actually perhaps better to contact me first, 92380098, since there are days we might be using the Room Under Audi for pattern practice. You can come along and correct your 360 in the pretty mirror if you want.
Love,
Chreees.
Ps.
I love you 17 days and counting (Go go pattern teams!)
Pps.
J1 orientation's on Wednesday, 20th Feb. Next proper training's on Wednesday, 28th Feb. Will update soon!
