Taekwondo is an exciting new club, on offer at Northumbria for the first time in 2024/25. Coaching is delivered by our BUCS & EUSA Gold Medalist athlete Simone Abley.
As a new club, we are open to students who have absolutely no prior experience in the sport. You'll have fun learning the sport while having a great time and making new friends.
We have three positions still available on the Club Committee for 2024/25. Please get in touch if you are interested in getting involved. You will have the opportunity to access our Volunteering and Internships Recognition Scheme (VIRS) and will receive training and a free committee top.

"TRAIN" Taekwondo
Wednesdays 15:30-17:00
Just TRY Week additional one-off session: Sunday 2nd February 2024 15:30-17:00
All sessions delivered in Lipman Gym on city campus.
This club is open to all abilities, including complete beginners. Competitions are all self-funded outside of this membership.
Please note the 2024/25 season has now concluded. Information on membership prices and training times for 2025/26 season will appear here in due course.
