Competitions 2022/23
We have many students who enjoy competing and regularly bring back medals. We compete in regional, National and World Championships.
Competitions are purely optional as there are many reasons students enjoy Taekwon-do and many different aspects to training.
Sparring is not part of the grading syllabus until you reach 5th kup. { around 18 months to 2 years training }
However many students like to spar from very early in their training. There are 2 distinctly different styles of sparring. One for grading which is to show off your technique and skill. The other is competition sparring which does have an element of contact.
Students are matched in weight and grade divisions, juniors height and grade.
