Taekwon-Do, the Art of Self Defence is now a household word in Queensland today. Our Taekwon-Do journey began in 1981, and since then community needs and expectations have changed considerably. This resulted in the formation of a progressive, practical and realistic system of self-defence and martial arts training… the Queensland Taekwondo Academy.
7th Dan Master Mr Jeff Dieben is the Founder of the Queensland Taekwon-Do Academy. His study of the Art of Taekwon-Do commenced in 1981 under the guidance of Master Graham Moulden. Since that time Mr Dieben has continuously strived to uphold the tenets of Taekwon-Do and share the knowledge attained with students from throughout Queensland.
The Queensland Taekwon-Do Academy, has well established clubs in North and Far North Queensland. We have associate clubs in the Wide Bay and South East Queensland regions.
AFFILIATIONS
We are affiliated members of the world’s largest Taekwon-Do organisation – the International Taekwon-Do Federation (ITF) and members of the National Governing body – the All Australian International Taekwon-Do Federation (AAITF).
OUR GOAL
Our goal is to provide a safe, family friendly environment in which to learn practical self defence and original ITF Taekwon-Do. Individuals will develop a strong moral character and become empowered with the self-confidence to use the practical self defence skills should the need arise.
