Confidence and self-belief
Every grading is a goal they work for and achieve. That confidence carries into school and friendships.

Questions

Anything else? Email info@totaltaekwondo.co.uk.
Is it safe?
Yes. Contact is light and controlled, sparring starts gently, and from Green Tag students wear protective kit.
How do belts and gradings work?
Each belt has its own syllabus. Once your child has trained for the minimum time and knows their syllabus, the coaches invite them to grade. You can follow their progress in the My Total app.
How often should they train?
Once a week is a great start. Many children train twice a week once they're hooked.
Can they compete?
Yes, if they want to. We have students competing at local, national and international level.
