Hi All,
After an initial promising start, this site seems to have died right down in activity, which is a shame.
I have a small idea, that may help that a bit. As some know, I produce the magazine 'Totally Tae Kwon Do' but of course havn't promoted it here at all, as I feel that would be against the sites terms, but what I could do, as an issue comes out each month, is post the cover and the good folk here can discuss it. If they get the mag, they can discuss the articles and if not, they can speculate on the articles mentioned on the cover (Though I could also list the contents, as thats online anyway).
That said, I don't want anyone to think this is just for promotion, as its not - its just an idea to get members chatting and of course, like I said, I don't wish to break any site rules.
Let me know your thoughts, especially the Web Master :)
Regards,
Stuart

Hi Stuart
Like you, I have been supprised by how quick the site has quietened down. I assumed it was due to many clubs re-starting face to face training options and therefore concentrating on that for the time being?
Personally I think it's a good idea to add extracts from magazine to promote conversation on the site and about the TKD in general. I am sure others would enjoy the input too.
I hope the webmaster agrees

Yes the traffic have gone down. I felt like it was mostly me who recruited people here and when I stopped promoting the site in my social media the recruitment stopped to.
So I figured that if the site have the right to live it would live. Me and my son use it to log trainings, and when the competitions start I was thinking to log fights and medals here. And if others started to do so the site would be active again. In time people will discover it and start using it.

I would like to say that what you have created here with the concept and intention of this site struck me as a great world wide connection of recognized students and the instructors of the art we have not been hit here in Australia as severe with the currant problem we are facing compered to other countries but we have had our share of lockdowns etc plus the bush fires then the floods which my own Dojang sustained some damage so we are all trying to recover both financially and time wise all over the world. When you create something new people tend to sit back and see what happens I believe this site will become even stronger as time goes on I will soon be getting my senior Instructors to join your site. I think it would be a good idea to add magazine extracts and other informative info of the Art to make it the go to place for genuine learning and connecting.

I’m new here and came over from the BJJ belt checker first. That site is jumping! Hope this one will gain traction as well. Great concept.
