🌸 Calling all female Taekwon-Do students! 🌸

Exeter Taekwon-Do is proud to host a special International Women’s Day 2026 event on Saturday 7 March 💪✨

We’re delighted to welcome Master Dana Stokhof (Belgium) for a ladies-only Taekwon-Do training day — a fantastic opportunity to train, learn, and be inspired by an exceptional female Master from abroad.

In Taekwon-Do, equality often comes naturally to us — but this isn’t the reality for all our sisters worldwide. International Women’s Day gives us the chance to reflect, support one another, and grow together.
