We follow the World Taekwondo (WT)/Olympic style of Taekwondo and are affiliated to both British Taekwondo and the United Taekwondo Association. This ensures that our training is up-to-date with the international standards and provides opportunities for our members to participate in a range of competitions across the country. We have a strong track record of success in poomsae and kyorugi competitions, and we encourage our members to challenge themselves and explore their potential in a competitive environment.
Apart from the physical benefits of Taekwondo, such as improved cardiovascular health, flexibility, and building strength, training at Gajok Taekwondo Academy offers numerous other advantages. Our members gain confidence through personal empowerment and the opportunity to succeed. Each achievement, whether it's learning a new pattern or winning a fight, instils a sense of accomplishment and boosts self-esteem. Taekwondo also teaches valuable self-defence skills, empowering our members to feel secure and confident in challenging situations.
Moreover, Taekwondo is a martial art that emphasises mental discipline alongside physical training. Our members learn the importance of setting goals and use self-discipline to work towards achieving them. The journey toward mastering the various aspects of Taekwondo requires dedication and perseverance, teaching our members that nothing worthwhile comes easily. Through Taekwondo, we instil discipline and determination, enabling our members to apply these qualities in all areas of their lives.
Gajok Taekwondo Academy derives its name from the Korean word for “family,” and that is exactly what we are – a close-knit community of students who support and encourage one another. From the youngest junior grades to the experienced seniors, we foster strong bonds and friendships within our club. We strive to create an all-inclusive and affordable environment, where everyone feels welcome and valued. We are not just a business; we are a club driven by passion and the desire to provide a great place to learn and practise the art of Taekwondo.
