🤩Success Story🤩

Noah started in Little Taeks 10 years ago!

Fast forward to 10 years, Noah achieved his black belt in 2025, still trains hard and is an inspiration to the younger members of the club. Noah now trains alongside his mother, showing Taekwon-Do really is for everyone! 👏🏼

🤩Success Story 🤩

Tyler has always been involved in Taekwon-Do since his older brother Dylan started Little Taeks

8 years later and Tyler trains alongside his dad and brother, has won multiple medals and is training hard to enter the Irish Open at the end of the year 🥋🥊😊

We’re back!!

As we look forward to September, watch for updates on our ‘Little Taeks’ success stories 🤩

Hi everyone 👋🏻

This has been a very difficult year for us all, however things are beginning to return to some sort of normality.

We are still trying to sort things out for the Taeks classes, but are finding it difficult with the restrictions that have been placed on the venues.

The main Taekwon-Do classes are returning next week, any of the Taeks that are 6 and over will be able to come to the main junior class if you wish to do so.

Please message for details or to book a place

Thank you

‼️As we are all aware, these are difficult times for us all, due to the current situation we are closing the Taeks classes until it’s safe to return. ‼️

It’s very important for our mental and physical well-being that we stay fit and healthy during these unusual times, so we are devising weekly workouts for our little taeks. Please feel free to send pictures/videos of your little taeks into this page or our private ‘Team Taekwon-Do’ Facebook group. We hope you all keep safe and healthy. See you soon! 😊
