Frequently asked questions when starting Tae Kwon Do

Do I need to be fit to start Tae Kwon Do?

No! All the training is targeted to work to the individuals own level of fitness, this method will help you progress quickly and soon after starting Tae Kwon Do you will see personal improvements in fitness and flexibility.

Will I need a suit to start Tae Kwon Do?

I do not push my students into buying suits (doboks) until I am sure they are going to stay about 10 weeks into the classes.

What do I wear if not a suit?

Something loose you can move about in, tracksuit, jogging bottoms or shorts and a T-shirt will be fine.

Do I have to pay a membership fee?

No. Eventually you will need a licence, as this is a legal requirement and your own insurance cover.

What age do I need to be to start training in Tae Kwon Do?

You can start from about 5 years of age, my oldest student is 63.

Will I get hurt?

No. All the sparring is semi contact in Tae Kwon Do which means the kicks and punches are pulled to make them safe, all the self defence moves are strictly controlled as they are very effective.
