Rules of Tae Kwon-Do

1. Will I struggle to keep up with everyone else?
No – the instruction is given so that you can set your own pace. Tae Kwon-Do will quickly improve your fitness levels – often within one month. 

2. Is Tae Kwon-Do just for young people?
No. Our clubs are focussed on individuals and family members of all ages. We are experienced in teaching all age groups.

3. What will I do in the trial lesson?
Your first lesson gives you a taster of the various basic punching, kicking and blocking techniques as well as a chance to practise some practical self-defence positions and stretching exercises. 

4. Is it a safe martial art?
Yes – your safety is paramount. You will receive clear instructions and demonstrations to illustrate how a technique should be made. Skills are built-up gradually and safely.

5. Should I join on my own or with my family?
Either. We welcome individuals and families – offering special discounted rates for families.
