What is Taekwondo?
Taekwondo literally means 'foot' ,'hand', 'way or art' ("The art or way of kicking and punching") and was originally designed for the Korean armed forces. It has evolved into a well-rounded martial art offering something for almost everyone - realistic self-defense, fitness, stress relief, building of self confidence, social elements and much more!
What do you do in class?
Our Taekwondo classes offer a wide variety of aspects and our sessions offer a different workout week to week. Generally they include all the traditional aspects of Taekwondo - self-defense, patterns, semi-contact sparring and fitness work of pad and bag training.
Do I need to be fit to do Taekwondo?
Not necessarily, in fact a lot of people actually join Taekwondo to get fit! In parts, fitness does help but the Instructor know that everyone is different and always try to ensure students push themselves where they can in attempt to attain higher and better personal levels and goals.
Are there people my age doing Taekwondo?
We have students as young as 3yrs old up to 65 years old training with us!
We look forward to seeing you in classes!
