About the club

TaeKwon-Do is a popular and competitive martial art, with a focus on conditioning the body and mind for self-defence. TaeKwon-Do is inclusive to all genders and levels of experience, and we welcome enquiries from those with a disability regarding the accessibility of TaeKwon-Do.

The club is open to members of all levels of experience, including complete beginners, and welcomes members of the local community to join. We accept all disciplines of TaeKwon-Do and recognise the belt you have achieved, even if you have not trained in a number of years.

There are many opportunities to compete, including against other universities at BUCS and against Cambridge in an annual Varsity. We also participate in the British University Taekwon-Do League (BUTL), who offer inter-university training as a member of a UK wide national squad, competition opportunities and an end of year trip to Spain for university TaeKwon-Do clubs.
