Are you the owner of The North Horangi ITF Taekwondo Newcastle?
Welcome to The North Horangi ITF Taekwondo Newcastle, a martial arts school dedicated to teaching the ancient art of Taekwondo. Taekwondo is a Korean martial art that combines elements of hand and foot techniques. We are affiliated with the International Taekwon-Do Federation (ITF), which was founded by Choi Hong Hi in 1966.
Our school offers a comprehensive training programme that covers various aspects of Taekwondo. From technical content and skills development to patterns, stretching, and sparring (with full body protection available), our classes provide a well-rounded experience for students of all skill levels. Whether you are a complete beginner or have prior martial arts experience, our school is suitable for you.
At The North Horangi ITF Taekwondo Newcastle, we are committed to helping you achieve your goals. Whether you are looking to improve your physical fitness, gain self-defence skills, or even aspire to win medals and trophies, our instructors are dedicated to providing the guidance and support you need. We offer three sessions per week to accommodate different schedules and ensure flexibility for our students.
Age is not a barrier at our school, and we welcome students of all ages, providing a great opportunity to meet new, friendly people. Beginners start as white belts and progress through the ranks toward the coveted black belt and beyond. Along the way, you will experience improvements in coordination, flexibility, discipline, and self-esteem.
The training sessions at The North Horangi ITF Taekwondo Newcastle are engaging, rewarding, and motivating. We understand that life can be stressful, and our classes serve as a great outlet to release that stress. By the end of each session, you will feel a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment, leaving you with a transformed mindset.
As a member of the English Taekwon-Do Association (ETA), our school creates a multicultural environment where students from different countries come together to learn and grow. Taekwondo not only strengthens your muscles, tendons, and stamina but also increases your range of motion and builds a strong core. It is an excellent way to achieve a healthy, lean, and flexible body.
To ensure a safe and effective training environment, we use high-quality equipment sourced from Torchwood Martial Arts. We practise breaking boards techniques using the TMA MASTER KIT, which consists of the GROND II Breaker unit mounted on a dedicated floor stand. This setup allows for precise positioning of the boards and reduces the risk of injuries during practise.
Grading at The North Horangi ITF Taekwondo Newcastle is conducted by our ITF Taekwon-do Instructor/Master. The grading criteria may include multiple patterns based on the colour of the belt, free sparring, 1 step sparring, 2 step sparring, 3 step sparring, theoretical explanations, strength fitness tests, breaking boards techniques, and technical knowledge assessments. Each grading is designed to challenge students and help them progress to the next level.
We adhere to the Taekwon-Do Tenets, which include courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit. These values guide our teachings and shape our students into well-rounded individuals who not only excel in martial arts but also uphold principles of freedom, justice, and peace.
Owned and operated by Daniel Wieczorkowski, The North Horangi ITF Taekwondo Newcastle is dedicated to providing a top-quality martial arts experience.
