Taekwondo is a Korean Martial Art that can improve your fitness and flexibility while you are learning to defend yourself. Taekwondo has the reputation of being the style with the best kicks. WTF Taekwondo and Judo are the only Martial Arts that are full Olympic sports. We welcome students of other martial arts especially students from ITF Taekwondo or from Independent groups like the TAGB who would like to try the WTF Olympic style. We host the Anglo Welsh WTF Taekwondo Cup competition in Wrexham each year.
