About the Club
Traditional Tae Kwon-Do in Gloucester
We are a friendly, family-oriented club affiliated to WMST and AIMAA, offering traditional ITF-style Tae Kwon-Do for students of all ages and abilities — from complete beginners to black belt and beyond.
Our classes are held at The Edge Community Centre in Coopers Edge, Gloucester. We focus on character development as much as physical technique, teaching the five tenets of Tae Kwon-Do: Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control and Indomitable Spirit.
Whether you're looking to improve your fitness, learn self-defence, or simply try something new — you're welcome here. First class is always free.

Common Questions
FAQ
Do I need any experience?
No experience is needed at all. Everyone starts as a white belt and progresses at their own pace. Our instructors will guide you every step of the way.
What should I wear?
For your first class, comfortable sports clothing is fine. Once you decide to continue, you'll need a Dobok (training suit) which we can help you obtain.
What age can children start?
We welcome students from age 5 upwards. Younger children train alongside adults and progress through the same grading system.
How often should I train?
We recommend attending at least once a week to maintain progress. Twice a week will see you improve much faster, especially in the early grades.
How long to get a black belt?
With consistent training, most students reach black belt in 4–6 years. But the journey matters more than the destination — each grade is an achievement in itself.
Is there a contract or joining fee?
No contracts and no joining fee. Your first class is completely free. Monthly fees are kept affordable and there are no hidden costs.
