A Big Congratulations to all the martial arts students from the Beccles Taekwon-do and Bungay Taekwon-do clubs who passed their Summer Belt Grading at the weekend.

The examination was held at Bungay High School on 23rd June 2019

GTUK Regional examiner Mr Steve King 6th Dan from Wellingborough, said this was an excellent grading and that there were some very promising performances especially during the sparring. He also congratulated the newest white belt Taekwondo students on their 1st belt grading and said he was very impressed with the focus and standards displayed by the young students.

All students were rewarded with a fantastic 100% pass rate! 

The 3 hour examination includes demonstrations of techniques including kicks, punches and blocks, patterns (sequences of moves), sparring, self-defence, power destruction and Korean terminology for the techniques in their individual belt grade syllabuses.

The clubs are run independently but both are affiliated to the same Taekwon-do association the GTUK, and teach the original ITF style of Taekwon-do. The clubs are very family orientated, with many parents training with their children. The youngest students are 5 years old and there is no upper age limit.
