We are excited to announce plans to offer Taekwondo classes in Sídlisko Ťahanovce in the near future, with exact timing and format depending on community interest and input. These sessions will aim to provide a welcoming environment for teens and adults to explore the enriching world of Taekwondo, with flexibility around class times based on participant preferences.
Classes will be conducted primarily in English with traditional Korean terminology to create an authentic experience, while additional support is available in Slovak and German. As a foreigner in this beautiful country, I appreciate the community’s support in establishing these classes, and your involvement means a great deal to me.
Your instructor, Mario Boser, a 4th-degree black belt and Chairman & Examination Director at the Independent Taekwondo Organisation (ITO), will be leading these sessions. With extensive experience as a Taekwondo instructor and referee, as well as expertise in fitness coaching, nutrition advising, and welfare, Mario is dedicated to helping you achieve your personal best.
Under Mario’s guidance, you’ll have the opportunity to enhance your fitness, confidence, and martial arts skills in a safe and supportive environment. Whether your goal is to get in shape, learn self-defense, or explore something new, these classes will cater to all experience levels.
By joining these sessions, you’ll also develop essential life skills such as teamwork, discipline, and social interaction. There will be opportunities to advance through belt promotion exams and even compete in Poomsae and Kyorugi competitions. We look forward to seeing you on the mat, where Mario will personally guide you on your Taekwondo journey!
As we settle into our new permanent home near Lidl, we are exploring the possibility of establishing a dojang within this area. Initially, classes will be offered on weekends to accommodate my main profession in IT, but the final schedule will be shaped by the interest and input of the community.
At the heart of Taekwondo4Fitness is Mario Boser, our esteemed Head Coach, whose dedication and passion for Taekwondo transcend the dojang. With a martial arts journey that began in 1989 and a specialized focus on Taekwondo starting in 1992, Mario brings a wealth of experience, expertise, and a deep love for teaching to every class.
Mario’s philosophy is built on the foundation that Taekwondo is more than just a martial art; it’s a pathway to discovering one’s potential, pushing boundaries, and cultivating a disciplined, healthy, and balanced lifestyle. His commitment to excellence is mirrored in his qualifications, including being a Kukkiwon-certified black belt, the Chairman and Examination Director of the Independent Taekwondo Organisation, and a seasoned instructor with a rich background in both competitive and traditional Taekwondo.
For those curious about the insights, motivations, and the driving force behind Mario’s approach to Taekwondo, we invite you to explore our Q&A with Head Coach Mario Boser. This intimate Q&A session offers a peek into Mario’s thoughts on martial arts, teaching, and the transformative power of Taekwondo. From discussing the nuances of martial arts philosophy to sharing personal experiences and advice for practitioners at all levels, the Q&A reveals the depth of knowledge and passion Mario brings to Taekwondo4Fitness.
Choosing Taekwondo4Fitness means joining a community that values respect, perseverance, and continuous learning. Under Mario’s guidance, members from all walks of life come together to challenge themselves, support one another, and grow both in and out of the dojang.
Whether you’re aiming to enhance your fitness, gain confidence through self-defense skills, or embark on a competitive Taekwondo journey, Mario and the Taekwondo4Fitness team are here to guide and support you every step of the way.
Join us on the mat, and let’s embark on this transformative journey together.
