The Tae Kwon-Do Association of Great Britain [TAGB] is the largest nationally recognised Tae Kwon-Do organisation in this country. It was formed in 1983 and has since become the founding member of the British Tae Kwon-Do Council [BTC], which is recognised by the United Kingdom Sports Council.
TAGB instructors are highly qualified, accredited individuals with many years’ experience in teaching mixed classes that often include young children and disability groups. Training in Tae Kwon-Do can start at any age. TAGB members start as young as five and one TAGB member gained his fifth Dan black belt on his 70th birthday!
Because of its high-kicking, fast-paced style Tae Kwon-Do is a thoroughly modern way of getting fit. The TAGB is a great advocate of fun and fitness at an early age and TAGB instructors often work with local schools to teach self-defence. The TAGB has over 20,000 accredited members and organises seminars, demonstrations, competitions, both national and international, every month of the year.
Tae Kwon-Do training is about learning to discipline your mind as well as your body and TAGB instructors always include elements in their teaching which help their students to develop mentally as well as physically.
With clubs throughout the country the TAGB is the ideally placed to offer instruction in a martial art that has evolved through a 3,000 year history to become one of the newest Olympic sports.
