Andover Tae Kwon-Do has been committed to teaching Tae Kwon-Do as it was intended by it founder Major General Choi Hong-hi.
All of our instructors have been tested by the TAGB and passed an approved course. All of our instructors as trained in first aid and hold current certificates. All of our instructors hold an Enhanced DBS certification.
There is an annual insurance/TAGB membership fee, and monthly training fees. If for whatever reason you want to stop training you can. There is no contract.
You will need a dobok (training suit). You will also need sparring equipment although this is not essential until you reach green belt but you will get more out of your training if you have sparring equipment.
Other TAGB clubs will usually welcome students from within the TAGB. We all follow pretty much the same syllabus, certainly we all have the same grading requirements. The TAGB has well over 600 clubs and 20,000 members. Each instructor runs their training session as they see fit.
Colour belt gradings are conducted every 3 months and are usually here in Andover. All of our colour belt gradings are conducted in a public place by a 9th Degree black belt.
The TAGB has a standard set of rules for black belt gradings which require that you have trained for at least 3 years and 8 months before you can become eligible to try for you black belt. Black Belt gradings are conducted before five 8th and 9th Degree Black Belts.
We train 3 days a week with 3 lessons per day. Each lesson is 40 minutes long. Once you are ready you can attend each of the 9 lessons if you wish. We would recommend that you attend at least 2 lessons per week in the beginning - more if you can manage it.
Although the structure of each training session can and does vary depending on many things, what you are taught follows a well defined syllabus
