At the heart of every successful Taekwondo club is a strong sense of community, and Ascend Taekwondo are a shining example of the positive impact that can be made when people come together through the sport.

From supporting athletes on their individual journeys to creating an environment where people of all ages and abilities can develop, build confidence and feel part of something bigger, Lead Instructor Lisa Scott has created an environment where Ascend Taekwondo place community firmly at the heart of everything they do.

The club continues to show how Taekwondo can bring people together, develop lifelong skills and create a positive environment in which individuals can thrive.

Here we take a closer look at the people, passion and purpose behind , highlighting the work they are doing to build a welcoming and supportive community through Taekwondo and the difference that commitment can make both on and off the mat.

The Bank Holiday weekend was one of development and progression at our Poomsae Performance Camps in Scotland and Northern Ireland.

The mats were filled with plenty of positive energy as athletes from our Poomsae Community worked hard to refine their technique, build confidence and push their performance to new levels.

From athletes taking their first steps on the Performance Pathway to those already competing at the highest level, everyone showed an incredible willingness to learn, improve and challenge themselves, leading to a successful session for all involved.

A huge thank you to all of the athletes, coaches and volunteers who helped make the weekend such a successful and inspiring experience. Your hard work, commitment and passion continue to strengthen and grow our Poomsae community.

Thereโ€™s something special about the National Poomsae Championships that goes far beyond what happens on the mat. Itโ€™s the moment when the Poomsae community comes together from across the UK, bringing athletes, coaches, officials, families and supporters together to celebrate everything that makes our Martial Art so special.

Of course, there will be medals to chase and performances to deliver, but the Nationals are also about supporting the person next to you, catching up with old friends, making new ones, celebrating each otherโ€™s achievements and sharing in the atmosphere that can only come from bringing the Taekwondo community together under one roof.

For athletes, itโ€™s the culmination of months of hard work and dedication. For coaches, families and supporters, itโ€™s a chance to see that commitment come to life.

This session will help clubs take the next step in their funding journey by developing a better understanding of the funding landscape and how to identify opportunities that could support their growth and development.

The webinar will also look at what funders are looking for, including how to demonstrate need, impact and value, alongside practical advice on how to strengthen an application and avoid some of the most common mistakes.

Itโ€™s an opportunity to think about what your club could achieve with additional investment, whether thatโ€™s increasing participation, developing new programmes, improving facilities or creating more opportunities for your members.

As a new school year begins, itโ€™s the perfect time to try something different, meet new people and start something that could become a passion for years to come.

Taekwondo brings together fitness, skill, discipline and community, providing a positive environment where you can build confidence, develop resilience and discover what youโ€™re capable of.

Whether youโ€™ve never stepped inside a martial arts club before or youโ€™re looking for a new challenge after the summer, thereโ€™s a place for you at one of more than 500 British Taekwondo affiliated clubs across the UK.

With qualified instructors and welcoming clubs, you can learn at your own pace, make new friends and develop skills that extend far beyond the dojang.

Because Taekwondo isnโ€™t just about learning kicks and techniques. Itโ€™s about setting yourself goals, overcoming challenges, growing in confidence and becoming the best version of yourself.
