The Cotswold Tae Kwon Do Association

The CTA

The Tae Kwon Do association local to the North Gloucestershire area is the Cotswold Tae Kwon Do Association or CTA for short. It is a group of 3 clubs run by experienced Instructors. The atmosphere is friendly and encouraging, whilst remaining challenging and rewarding.

Who can join?

Just about anybody! Tae Kwon Do is not a full contact Martial Art and is suitable for everyone from the age of 5 years of age and upwards. One of the unique attributes of training with the Cotswold Tae Kwon Do Association is that you can choose your own level. Whatever your present pastimes or occupation, you set the number of classes you attend. There is no maximum or minimum.

You may already be physically active and looking to expand your level of fitness. Alternatively, maybe you do not currently particpate in any physical activity and are looking to improve your physical well-being.

There are classes for all levels, ages and both sexes.

What will I learn?

Tae Kwon Do incorporates many facets such as self defence, flexibility, discipline, fitness and confidence building. As well as aspects of self defence, Tae Kwon Do teaches "Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverence, Self Control and Indomitable Spirit."

Tae Kwon Do can mean different things to different people. For some it is a way of unwinding or doing something different, a way of enjoying time with a son or daughter. For some it is the ultimate physical and mental challenge, stretching them to their limits, striving towards the coveted black belt. For others it is an enjoyable and different way to get and keep fit whilst building their self confidence.

Learning self defence in our modern society is becoming more and more a necessity, particularly for children and ladies.

Whatever your motivation, Tae Kwon Do is FUN! So, come along and watch a class or give one of the Instructors a call for further information.
