During the 2 days (10 hours) Master Nardizzi introduced the participants in the different topics of the program, with some theory, but the main part of the course the participants could enjoy the practical side of the program. Although adults, the participants really enjoyed it, feeling children again. It was great having the course in the true spirit of Taekwon-Do, learning how to introduce Taekwon-Do to young children, how to educate them and giving them tools for life.

Master Nardizzi conducted the course in a very inspirational manner, and everyone had the opportunity to learn and to ask questions.
This way the instructors were teached how to teach and how to deal with certain situations.
