About Us

 

Welcome to Goldsmiths Taekwondo!

 

Joining our club is a great way to meet lots of friendly faces, get fit and learn something new. No experience needed! We're a very sociable group, organising nights out and meet-ups during the day. Come to one of our sessions to see for yourself. Your first 2 sessions are free!

During the training sessions you'll learn Olympic-style sparring and, if you wish, we'll prepare you for future competitions. You will also be learning the traditional Taekwondo patterns and moves, as well as self-defense techniques. Moreover, training with us will help you improve your self-confidence and develop your agility, stamina and body strength.

If you practice ITF Taekwondo, that's not a problem! You are also welcome to join this club and we can enter you for any ITF student competitions you wish to participate in.
