GMAC Martial Arts held a life-saving Heart Start Course & Defibrillator training October, which was attended by over 30 students, parents & instructors.\u00a0 The course was run in conjunction with the British Heart Foundation, and Scottish Ambulance Service.\u00a0 The four-hour course covered life saving skill and how to administer emergency aid if someone suffers a cardiac arrest, via the use of a Defibrillator.<\/p>\n

In June 2013 GMAC helped to organise a fundraising competition in aid of fellow Instructor Mr. Patrick Timoney who unfortunately fell ill during his Black Belt Grading and suffered a heart attack in November 2012.\u00a0 The competition was held earlier this year to honour Mr. Timoney’s life and to raise funds for the British Heart Foundation as well as purchase Defibrillator (A.E.D. machines) to be given to each TKD association in Scotland.\u00a0 With the success of the competition Mr. Timoney\u2019s family were able to purchase six of these life-saving machine’s one of which will be kept in our Taekwon-Do gym in Livingston.<\/p>\n
