Tae Kwon-DO
Tae-kwon-Do is a version of an ancient form of unarmed combat. Tae-Kwon-Do was perfected in its present form in South Korea.
Tae means to jump, kick or smash with the foot. Kwon means a fist, chiefly to punch or destroy with the hand or fist. Do means art, way or method.
Tae-Kwon-Do indicates the technique of unarmed combat for self-defence .
To the Korean people Tae-kwon-Do is more than mere movement of skills.
It is a way of thinking and life .
The Tae Kwon Do Association of Great Britain is Europe's largest single martial arts organisation, with over 20,000 members training in over 600 clubs throughout the UK.
The Tae Kwon Do Association of Great Britain (TAGB) is a nationally recognised Tae Kwon Do organisation.
It was formed in 1983 and has since become the founding member of the British Tae Kwon Do Council (BTC) which is recognised by the United Kingdom Sports Council.
TAGB instructors are highly qualified, accredited individuals with many years' experience in teaching mixed classes which often include young children and disability groups. Training in Tae Kwon Do can start at any age. TAGB members start as young as five and recently one of our members gained his fifth dan black belt on his 70th birthday! Because of its high-kicking, fast-paced style Tae Kwon Do is a thoroughly modern way of getting fit.
The TAGB is a great advocate of fun and fitness at an early age and TAGB instructors often work with local schools to teach self-defence.
