My Happy Students from the Online Classes!
Embarking on a virtual journey with Master Joël’s online poomsae training has proven to be a transformative experience for my coaching endeavors. As a dedicated instructor and athlete, I sought to enhance my skills in competitive poomsae, and the results have been nothing short of remarkable since the inception of this collaboration. The structured lessons, coupled with Master Joël’s clear and concise instructional style, have significantly enhanced my understanding of the technical aspects of poomsae. I highly recommend him for anyone passionate about advancing their skills in the competitive poomsae arena!!!

Training with Master Jöel was definitely the best decision I made in 2024. He asked me what I wanted to work on specifically and he made me perform drills that were specially tailored for me. He did not just focus on accuracy, but also gave equal importance to the presentation aspect of poomsae as well. If I compared my poomsae before and after his session, a huge improvement was evident. Ever since I joined Master Jöel’s online classes, I have also been really motivated to train regularly and improve my poomsae.

My husband & fellow poomsae athlete Alan McGowan and I started training with Master Joël van der Weide about 2 months ago. We needed an independent assessment of our capabilities and guidance in our training to elevate our poomsae performance to the high standard required at international level. Master Joël provides this very professionally, with insights from his own personal experience. Each session builds on the previous session with key focus points and review of progress gained. I use this knowledge within the national team and club sessions. We highly recommend Master Joël sessions for any aspiring athletes trying to improve their poomsae knowledge and performances.

Joël Van der Weide is an inspiration. I had explained to him about the history of my neck injury and how it affected my subsequent course both professionally and physically and instead of him passing it by or giving me advice like most did. (As if I wasn’t trying it alone on all levels (emotional, psychological and physical)) Joël Van der Weide on the other hand he really sympathized with me and we are making real progress step by step and we have incredible communication. It corrects and relays to you what you really need to work until the next time you have the next lesson. And because it is among the top athletes, you see and correct yourself on the top developments of Poomse. However, it’s not just Joël van der Weide’s technical skills that impress me. It is a pleasure to work with Joël because of his character and amazingly positive attitude.

As a young poomsae practitioner from Norway with Dutch roots, I teamed up with my dad and coach to level up my skills. We sought help from Joël van der Weide, drawn by his Dutch background, which instantly clicked with us. Since training with Joël, I’ve seen some incredible improvements in how I perform. His expertise and personal approach not only sharpened my techniques and presentation but also deepened my understanding of the art. Shifting from physical to online classes can be tough, but Joël makes it feel seamless. He knows how to adapt his teaching to match my learning style, making learning quick and easy. I’m excited to keep training with Joël, knowing that even more progress is on the horizon.

Training with Master Joël was the best decision ever. I met Joël at a Poomsae seminar in Austria and was immediately hooked. The online training with him is great and has taken my Poomsae to the next level. I will definitely continue training with Master Joël. I look forward to every lesson because it is special to train with a top athlete like Joël. I am grateful to train with the best of the best and look forward to many more training sessions.

As a coach Joël is really nice. Its always easy to schedule a training class with him and Joël also wants to have a class with me, which is important for me. Joël’s classes are always effective, and I always get something new from him. The classes are diverse, we can focus on small details or bigger things. The feedback that I get from Joël is everytime developmental, also the way he gives the feedback is nice, he wants me to fully understand what he means so I can get better. So in short, Joël’s coaching is very good and for sure, worth the money.

My Happy Clients from the Poomsae Seminars
It was our pleasure to have the opportunity to train with the best Joël van der Weide x5 European Champion ! Joël’s recent visit to Greece for a poomsae seminar left an indelible mark on our athletes, showcasing his prowess as a champion and a distinguished instructor. The seminar, focused on competitive poomsae, drew a diverse group ranging from 11-year-old youngsters to seasoned 50-year-old Greek instructors from 3 Greek Teams. One of the standout aspects of Master Joël’s teaching was his ability to bridge the generation gap effortlessly. His expertise resonated with participants of all ages, fostering a remarkable learning environment. The communication and interaction between the master and the attendees were exemplary, creating a harmonious and productive atmosphere. It was a transformative experience for all ages!!! We hope that he will honor us again soon!!!

Joël’s classes were very productive and interactive. When a competitor of his level becomes a teacher, you can always learn new key points that are very useful to improve your poomsae.
Noëlia Perez
In the past year we have invited Joël twice to our taekwondo dojang as a special guest instructor at seminars. Aside from showing deep knowledge of taekwondo poomsae techniques, which is to be expected, Joël is able to transfer knowledge and insights in such a manner that the teaching materials are interesting and fun, as well of added value to all kinds of students, young or old, beginners or high-ranking belts, active tournament competitors or recreational taekwondo practitioners, thereby improving taekwondo skills of all participants. Also, Joël is a charismatic person, he is easy to approach and he takes the time to talk to everybody and have pictures taken with them.

Success comes in a lot of ways. It doesn’t come with money nor with fame, it comes from having a meaning in your life. Doing what you love, being passionate about what you do and having the ability to impact people less having. That’s having a life success. That all is Joël Van der Weide.

Savo Kovacevic
At IPC 2024 Bulgaria & Austria we had the opportunity to work with Master Joël van der Weide from the Netherlands. He is a very ambitious coach who is able to teach groups of all levels with great dedication. In addition, he has a high level of technical ability, so that all students can benefit to the maximum from Coach Joël. He is also very good at motivating everyone to perform well. An absolute recommendation on my part.
Peter Nestler
Simply amazing! Joël is able to transmit his knowledge and energy in each of his explanations. Only great athletes are capable of leaving those who observe them hypnotized. The methodology used in his seminars makes the student get the most out of them. Raging news in the development of technique and poomsae!
