Fighting Spirit Taekwondo

Fighting Spirit Taekwondo is a renowned martial arts school located in Ashford, Kent, with sessions held at both the Stour Centre and Great Chart Village Hall. The school, established in May 2016, is registered with British Taekwondo, the National Governing Body for WT Taekwondo in the United Kingdom.

Led by Master Colin Larkin, who has been involved in martial arts since his school days, Fighting Spirit Taekwondo aims to provide high-quality martial arts training in the style of WT Taekwondo. Master Colin has had a passion for martial arts since the emergence of Bruce Lee and his Kung Fu movies in 1973, which inspired him to explore different martial arts styles. Unable to find a club that aligned with his interests, he joined a Taekwondo club as it closely resembled the style Bruce Lee demonstrated.

Fighting Spirit Taekwondo offers a comprehensive martial arts training programme, catering to students of all ages and skill levels. The school's affiliation with British Taekwondo ensures that students receive up-to-date and professional training that follows the guidelines set by the National Governing Body. The school regularly publishes information about upcoming gradings, seminars, and championship competitions on their events page to keep students informed and motivated.

The school also takes pride in their affiliation with British Taekwondo, which is a member of the World Taekwondo Federation, British Olympic Association, and European Taekwondo Union. This affiliation ensures that students at Fighting Spirit Taekwondo are part of a globally recognised martial arts community.

Additionally, Fighting Spirit Taekwondo acknowledges the importance of the World Taekwondo Headquarters, also known as Kukkiwon, in shaping the future of Taekwondo. The school promotes the globalisation of Taekwondo and the vitality of martial arts, aligning with the 80 million Taekwondo practitioners worldwide who share a common passion for change and innovation.
