Tae Kwon Do is a martial art developed in Korea during the early 1950s. It combines jumping and kicking with the foot (Tae), punching and blocking with the fist (Kwon), and the art, way, and method (Do). The name Tae Kwon Do was given to this new martial art in 1955 by a group of leading Korean martial artists led by Major General Choi Hong Hi. Tae Kwon Do was introduced to the UK in 1967, and the Tae Kwon Do Association of Great Britain (TAGB) was formed in 1983.
Sheffield Tae Kwon Do was founded by Master Graham Churchill, an 8th Dan black belt, in 1990. He also founded the Lincoln TKD school in 1989. Master Churchill took over as the instructor at the Doncaster TKD in 1998, a school he joined as a beginner in 1974. With such a wealth of experience and expertise, students can trust that they are learning from a highly qualified and dedicated instructor.
Testimonials from Sheffield and Doncaster Tae Kwon Do members speak highly of the school and its classes for both adults and children. For more information, interested individuals can contact Master Graham Churchill, a 7th Dan black belt, at 07798697455 or sheffieldtkd7@virginmedia. Com.
