SMK Methodist (P) Klang, 2012


I still remember, I was still a small girl when i joined Tae Kwon Do classes. It was an AMAZING experience.


Most of our members here will welcome you warmly with open arms because Tae Kwon Do isn’t just a place to train but also a place to make new friends. Till today, in our classes here, SMK (P) Methodist, Klang. You can barely or RARELY see anyone standing alone like a loner. Thats what so special about TKD in MGS, Klang.


What I learn from training in TKD are, to achieve something, you need to reach out to get it, in other words, hardwork. Moreover, learning TKD isn’t just for self defence actually, more to train your body to be physcially active and mentally smart to achieve excellence in school.


Furthermore, a HUMONGOUS THANKS to Mdm. Yeap Swee Bee, 7th Dan and assisted by Mr Yap Ping Hong, as well as Mr. Tan Seng Huat. Without them I don’t know how this training can continue on. Training in TKD will build up attitude and discipline. So take this initiative to learn up TKD anywhere. It could be in your school or other centre or even in our school. Don’t take a step back because of your age, take a step forward to change your view and environment by joining US !


You can always join us during our TKD sessions at 4.30 pm to 5.45 pm every Satuday. It will change if there are replacement of school days during the Saturday and it will be push to Sunday, same time. Remember, the MORE the MERRIER. 🙂

Taman Megah Night Class


Taman Megah night class was initially started for those students who were formerly training in the Taman Megah school. When they moved up to form 1, they stayed back as they still wish to continue their training under us. That was more than 15 years ago. Now, it comprises ex-students from as far as SK Assunta, SMK Bandar Damansara Utama 3, P.J. and other colleges nearby as well.

The class starts at 7.45 pm sharp every Tuesday, and usually by 7.15 pm we would already be there teaching and guiding those who come early. The form 1 students would come straight after school (they will only take their dinner after the lesson). To see them coming faithfully, week after week, despite the long and hard day at school, really gives us the motivation to give them our best.

This is an unique class. It is unique in the sense that unlike other classes, here, the students who had left for further studies overseas would come back to train when they are back for holidays. Some would even come and assist us to teach. One such person, is Kenneth Kuan (graduated several months ago as a medical doctor). Oophs…, I should address him as Dr. Kenneth Kuan, now, as he is currently serving and attached with the Sg. Buloh General Hospital.

Make a Difference


Someone sent this inspiring movie to  me a few days ago. I thought I should share it with all of you too. I was totally transfixed, with tears welling up my eyes as I watched the awesome story unfold…

Tenby International Secondary Schools


For the first time this semester the secondary boys and girls from the Tenby International Schools commenced their training without the primary students. Before this and for the past 3 years, both the secondary and primary were training together in the school auditorium. It was until recently, when the group got a little too big, and we have more secondary students that could come on Friday, that we decided to split up the group.

The primary remains training on Thursday, and the secondary on Friday. However, they are still given the option to attend either one, most convenient to them.

The Art of Forgiving


Some might consider it strange that I post this article here in a taekwondo blog like this. But the truths therein are so powerful and liberating that I would consider myself thoughtless if  I do not share.


Author Unknown

  1. The most creative power given to the human spirit is the power to heal the wounds of a past it cannot change.
  2. We do our forgiving alone inside our hearts and minds; what happens to the people we forgive depends on them.
  3. The first person to benefit from forgiving is the one who forgives.
  4. Forgiving happens in three stages: we rediscover the humanity of the person who wronged us; we surrender our right to get even; and we wish that person well.
  5. Forgiving is a journey; the deeper the wound, the longer the journey.
  6. Forgiving does not require us to reunite with the person who broke our trust.
  7. We do not forgive because we are supposed to; we forgive when we are ready to be healed.
  8. Waiting for someone to repent before we forgive is to surrender our future to the person who wronged us.
  9. Forgiving is not a way to avoid pain but to heal the pain.
  10. Forgiving someone who breaks a trust does not mean that we give him his job back.
  11. Forgiving is the only way to be fair to ourselves.
  12. Forgivers are not doormats; to forgive a person is not a signal that we are willing to put up with what he or she does.
  13. Forgiving is essential; talking about it is optional.
  14. When we forgive, we set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner we set free is ourselves.
  15. When we forgive we walk in stride with our forgiving God.

Intensive Poomsae Training


A few new faces joined in the poomsae training last Sunday. Muhammad Suhaiyl Hamdi, 11, a red belter, who hails from Shah Alam was one of them. It was really encouraging to see such a young one like him, training with the team with such great determination even though it was his first day.

It was already the 3rd week of intensive training for most of them under the watchful eye of the coach, Mr. Tan Kien Tat. Learning the basic executions the correct way through repetitive drills may seem monotonous to some, but not to them. They are bent on mastering the right moves in all the Taegueks, from 1 to 8, and later the senior patterns as well.
