GTI Swindon Taekwondo

At Swindon Taekwondo we have 3 qualified Instructors and 2 qualified assistant Instructors. All Instructors are CRB checked and are first aid qualified, we also have public liability insurance.

How often can I train?

To start with classes are one hour, twice per week at the Haydon Centre.

What equipment will I need to train?

To start with you will need just a pair of track suit bottoms and a T-shirt. Once you have decided to join you will get your training Suit (Dobuk). After three to six months you will then need to purchase sparring safety equipment.

Is it dangerous?

Any Martial Art has risks, but we have trained instructors and have carried out health and safety risk assessments, as a result Taekwon-do is a low risk activity.

Do I have to sign a contract or Direct Debit mandate?

We do not use a contract based fee system; fees are paid monthly by cheque. We want you to train because you like to and not because you are financially committed to.

Is there a joining fee?

You pay a joining fee which includes a suit (Dobuk) with a white belt, a Licence (including annual Insurance cover)

and one months training, you will thereafter pay a monthly fee to train. Family reductions apply.

What ages do you teach?

Students aged 9 and over will be considered on an individual basis, there is no upper age limit as everybody has different capabilities.

When can I grade?

We hold coloured belt gradings approximately every 3 months.

When can I come along?

New students are welcome at the Haydon Centre every Monday and Thursday.

Can we train with our children?

Taekwon-Do is a great family activity, but parents be warned children often pick techniques up quicker than you so they might surpass you to start with.
