Why Join the Competition Team
We take our athletes to tournaments throughout Quebec nearly every month during the season — from local opens to the Jeux du Québec — so students gain real competitive experience close to home.
Our team trains both Olympic disciplines: kyorugi (sparring) and poomsae (forms). Athletes develop the timing, control, and precision that win matches and impress judges.
Our certified instructors don't just run practice — they're in your corner on competition day, warming you up, calling tactics, and guiding you through every round.
Sparring (Kyorugi)
Kyorugi is the fast, tactical, Olympic side of taekwondo. Our athletes drill footwork, timing, and combinations until they become second nature.
We build each competitor up safely — from controlled drills to live sparring — so they step onto the mat prepared and protected.
Coaching
Our certified instructors have competed and coached at the highest levels. They tailor training to each athlete's goals, from a first local tournament to a provincial championship.
On competition day your coach is right there with you — preparing you, reading the match, and helping you adjust round to round.
Achievement
There is nothing like stepping onto the podium after months of hard work. Our competitors regularly bring home medals from opens and provincial events.
More than the hardware, it is the confidence and pride that come from testing yourself and rising to the challenge.
Compete in Quebec
Most of our competitions take place right here in Quebec, with events nearly every month during the season — so students get real experience without long travel.
From the Jeux du Québec to regional opens, our team is a regular presence on the Quebec taekwondo circuit.

Team
Competition can feel daunting, but our athletes never step onto the mat by themselves. Coaches and teammates are right there — warming them up, steadying their nerves, and cheering every point.
That sense of team is what keeps our competitors coming back and improving together, season after season.
Beyond the Medals
Stepping onto the competition floor does more than fill a trophy shelf. The discipline, focus, and resilience our athletes build through competition carry into school, work, and everyday life.
Learning to perform when it counts — with judges watching and the clock running — builds a composure that stays with students far beyond the mat.
Preparing for a tournament means setting targets, tracking progress, and putting in the work week after week. Competition turns effort into measurable results.
Win or lose, our athletes learn to compete with class — respecting opponents, coaches, and officials, and supporting their teammates every step of the way.
