‼️As we are all aware, these are difficult times for us all, due to the current situation we are closing the Taeks classes until it’s safe to return. ‼️
It’s very important for our mental and physical well-being that we stay fit and healthy during these unusual times, so we are devising weekly workouts for our little taeks. Please feel free to send pictures/videos of your little taeks into this page or our private ‘Team Taekwon-Do’ Facebook group. We hope you all keep safe and healthy. See you soon! 😊
