Para taekwondo seminar held in Peru
April 2017
The Peruvian capital of Lima staged the first international Para taekwondo seminar in the Americas on April 2017.
The first international Para taekwondo seminar in the Americas took place in Lima, Peru, on April, aiming to raise awareness of the sport across the continent.
Coaches from Argentina, Belgium, Chile, Colombia and Peru participated in the event, which was supported by the Mexican Taekwondo Federation.
“It is the first seminar held in the Americas, which is why we focused on explaining what Para taekwondo is about because people did not know much about it and they had many doubts,” said Veronica Santana, Mexican Para taekwondo national coordinator.
“Anti-doping, the Paralympic Games, communication between athletes and coaches, injuries and nutrition were amongst the topics covered during the session.
