PLANET P.U.M.A. Hello and welcome to issue 22 of Planet P.U.M.A. Have we got a great issue for you! The last few months have been packed full of top events, at which everyone enjoyed themselves immensely. We have reports on the last Black Belt grading, with some inspirational messages in the essays. Meanwhile the competition circuit has been buzzing! First we had the University Kickboxing Fight Night featuring the University of Bath vs. Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin Universities, and this was followed by the 2 nd P.U.M.A. World Open Championships in March 2012. For those of you who don’t know (where have you been for the last couple of months? On holiday on the moon??!!!) Master Gayle was awarded his 8 th Degree Black Belt on the Sunday. Congratulations, Sir! Most recently we have had the Ghana Fund Seminar Day, which featured all the top P.U.M.A. instructors. The event was attended by almost 100 martial artists of different ages and grades, and had something for everyone. With such a great events schedule, we are still buzzing with excitement! Also in this issue we have the next instalment of the ’Musings from Korea’, which offers a fascinating insight into Korean culture and thinking. Meanwhile, ’A look Back In Time’ gives us a glimpse of how Black Belt grading used to be ‘back in the day’ and how they are now. The Planet P.U.M.A. Pub Quiz and other features will test your Taekwon-Do knowledge, amuse and entertain you. We hope you enjoy this issue. Do remember Planet P.U.M.A. is the ASSOCIATION magazine and we do need people to contribute material. We are always around at competitions and other events, so don’t be shy just come and say hello. All the best for now, Mandy, Pete and Matthew 3
