Saints Taekwon-do

The Taekwon-Do club is open to people of all levels of experience, whether you’ve practiced Taekwon-Do before or have no experience at all.

We practice in the ITF style, although those with experience in other styles shouldn’t be dissuaded from joining! With the guidance of our experienced instructors, you will be provided with all the training and knowledge required in order to progress in Taekwon-Do, as well as the opportunity to strengthen yourself physically and mentally. Beyond training, we also hold social events and fundraisers throughout the year.

Training sessions are run by our instructors Miss Zoë Tate and Mr Robert Dolan, who started teaching together in 1998 and have their own distinct style of teaching, which compliments one another. They work hard to make new and returning Taekwon-do practitioners welcome and aim to make sure you reach your potential.

Every summer the club joins several other Taekwon-do clubs on a summer camp. Over the course of four days we train a wide variety of aspects of Taekwon-do, from patterns to sparring to power testing, with many other fun activities being thrown in as well. The camp also includes the opportunity to grade, as well as many exciting demonstrations by students and instructors alike. For more information feel free to contact us!
The club attended the BUTL university world championships last month (where a silver was won is sparring!), and they are planning on attending the BUTL national championships next year too. The club is also planning on attending the ITF Scottish National Championships in Glasgow at the end of May.

There are plans to collaborate with Dundee Taekwondo Club next academic year to participate in some friendlies. The club coach is hosting a blackbelt seminar & grading in Dundee in September which the club is helping to run.

The club has just elected a Competitions and Events Officer within the committee to ensure we are involved with most competitions within the UK in future years.

The club also attends residential weekends within the UK – some of our club members are planning to attend one in June and October. Gradings are usually held at the end of these weekends.
Whether you are new to the sport or more experienced, already attend the University or if you are thinking about attending, please get in touch to register your interest and find out more about our club.

The University hosts a Sports Fayre at the beginning of each academic year during Orientation Week, giving prospective members the opportunity to talk to club members and sign up to ‘Give It A Go’ sessions.
