UCLA Taekwondo

Earlier this quarter, we traveled to Marlborough, Massachusetts for 2025 NCTA Collegiate Nationals! So proud of this team and everything we brought. Wins, lessons, and memories — we gave it our all and had a blast doing it. 💙💛

Thank you for hosting and thank you to our coaches! Thank you to everyone who donated! See you next year! Go Bruins!

We're delighted to announce we will be hosting our annual Sparring Rumble on Sunday, March 9th!

Rumbles are chill and low-stakes opportunities to practice sparring your friends from different weight classes, belt levels, and schools in the area. It's always a blast and we look forward to seeing you there!

The event will be held 10:30 am to 1 pm at the Basketball Court Gyms at the Student Activities Center here on UCLA's campus. The rumble will be open to adults (18+) only, and costs $25 to register.

We will also be having a social after the rumble to get to know each other better off the mat, so we encourage you all to stick around and hang out!

The link to register is in our LinkTree in our bio. The deadline to register is March 7th, at 11:59 pm. Thank you!

Congratulations to our belt testers for passing their tests last quarter! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you to everyone who came out to this year’s annual Big Bear retreat 🐻!! We hope everyone enjoyed a long weekend on both the mountain and the lake under the sun ☀️. We would like to extend a massive thanks to our trip coordinators/Social chairs Adarsh and Vanessa for planning and executing this trip immaculately! This trip literally could not have happened without your hours of planning and constant leadership throughout the trip. We would also like to thank our wonderful drivers for being so accommodating and getting us from point A to point B(ig Bear)! Hope you all enjoyed and will be excited for next year as well!

To begin the recap our club’s season of competition and events, we started with our Korean Culture Night performance with our KCN TKD demo team! With stunning photos courtesy of KCN media team, we started this quarter off strong with an amazing performance. Congratulations to all of our performers for their hard work and would like to specially thank our demo coordinators, Erica and Sharlene for their dedication to making the performance as great as it was! We literally could not have done it without you. Thank you to all the members and friends of the club for their support and hope to continue strong next year as well!
