Wootton Tang Soo Do

Another very productive class tonight. Really great to see my students learn new elements of the syllabus and perform them well!

Folks, I thought it was important to post this picture to show the reality of being a martial artist. This is a set of bruises caused by the proper application of a self defence technique. I volunteered to be the attacker against my 7th Dan Master Belt in front of a room of Dan members. He punched me in the bicep with his middle knuckle and believe me it really hurt! I knew it would hurt but it was important that everyone understood how to apply the technique properly. If you think your martial art skills will make you impervious to harm you are very much mistaken, you will likely get hurt while defending yourself, but it is a lesson worth learning.

Another opportunity on Thursday to come and make a positive change to your life! Wootton Village Hall, Thursday from 6:30 to 8pm! No special clothing needed, just come with casual clothing and a willingness to learn a life skill that will boost your mental and physical wellbeing, improve your confidence, concentration, spatial awareness and build self control and discipline. We are a traditional Korean Martial Art, similar to Karate, with a focus on discipline and mutual respect, come and give us a try

Folks, class will run as normal this Thursday despite it being half term. If you fancy something different during Easter break why not come along and give us a try? Wootton Village Hall, Thursday from 6:30 to 8pm! First class is free.

Hoping you all have a great weekend! Looking forward to training with the Dal P**n crowd tomorrow. If you want to find a place where you can get fit, build confidence, gain self defence abilities and become part of a huge Martial Arts family come along and join me on a Thursday evening in Wootton Village Hall!

Come along and give us a try 😀

Class will start back on Thursday 8th of January. Looking forward to seeing you all again. If looking to start a new fitness regime please consider trying martial arts, it will improve your mental and physical wellbeing and also give you a life skill! I have been training for 20 years and still learning new things!

Wishing you a merry Christmas and a happy new year. Keep us in mind if you fancy a new pastime for 2026! Excellent for both physical and mental health!

Well folks, that wraps up our 2025 calendar with a final class this evening. Good turn out, bit of fun and a lot of hard work. Belt presentations for those who graded last Saturday, bit of fun with a sword, some defence exercises with sponge striking pads, bit of dodgeball and some Heroes as a treat for everyone. Looking forward to seeing you all in the New Year 👊

Fantastic weekend spent with our extended TSD family. Early morning training session led by Grand Master Nar, followed by a memorable Black Belt presentation ceremony followed by a grading. Had four students grade, three of them on Saturday, you all worked extremely hard and performed really well on the day. Congratulations to all of you. Tang Soo, Master Bradley.

Looking forward to another productive training session with my class. Maximum effort to produce maximum benefits. Keep working hard, keep staying safe! Tang Soo 👊
