This page will give you a quick overview of what to expect when you join our club and how we can support you on your Tae Kwon-Do journey.

We love welcoming new members and invite you to come along to a training session. Whether you're a complete beginner or have some experience, you'll find a friendly and encouraging environment waiting for you.


Starting something new can feel daunting, but we’re here to make sure you feel comfortable from day one. Respect and support are at the heart of our club, and we always take the time to help new students settle in.


Tae Kwon-Do is for everyone, regardless of age or gender. All you need is enthusiasm, patience, and a willingness to learn. Not only will you develop practical self-defence skills in a fun and engaging way, but you'll also build confidence, discipline, and mental resilience. We don’t train people to be aggressive—our focus is on control, composure, and staying calm under pressure.
Many of our students find that training benefits them in other areas of life, helping them become fitter, stronger, and more focused.


To help you get started, we offer a 2-week free trial—no cost, no commitment. If you decide to continue after that, it’s just a simple fixed monthly fee.


We look forward to welcoming you to the club and supporting you on your journey!

Just wear loose comfortable clothing such as a tracksuit & tee shirt and join in.

But I'm not fit enough!
We all have to start somewhere, we make no presumption about your current level of fitness, you will be asked to work to your own potential, and whatever that might be we will strive to make you a fitter, more flexible and more confident person through exercise!

What's the age range?
We run classes specifically for juniors, it is exceedingly difficult to generalise about the start age for juniors, where you can get a 4-year-old the play the violin and a 14-year-old who can't tie their own shoelaces.
We normally recommend a round 5-years-old is the youngest for our Tigers group, and round 7 for the Kick-starters, our oldest regularly training student is 70!
 So, if you are between 5 and 70 you are eligible to train. Teenagers join the adult sessions; Junior students are regularly reviewed and after 2 months we review their progress and advise parents on if it's the right choice for them.
Please see our child protection policy.

Will everyone laugh at me?
Starting anything new can make you feel a little self-conscious, it is a bit like riding a bike, you may wobble around and fall off at the start but before too long it's easy and fun

How do I get to become a black belt?
If you train hard and listen to your instructors getting a Black belt is a possibility, you’ll have to pass 8 separate grades over a minimum of 4 years

What will it cost?
To start with there is a four-week introductory period, which is free! After that all you need do is meet the monthly training fees, which are currently £35.00 per calendar month. That will entitle you to train on one night only, should you wish to train both nights the cost is £45:00, it also allows you to train anywhere else in the TAGB for no additional cost! The fees are based on payment made by standing order or, if you pay by cash or cheque, it will cost you a little bit more
 If members of the same family train together there are significant reductions!!

How often should I train?
It's up to you!
Some students train once a week, most train for both lessons and a few train for all the lessons available.

Will I get hurt? 
Definitely not! Unlike kickboxing or Western boxing, we practice a non-contact sport where the skilled use of distance makes sure no one is injured in class.
