Taekwondo is a Korean martial art and popular Olympic sport known for its impressive kicks. At Western Taekwondo Club we practice sparring, patterns, board-breaking, kicking, self-defense, and more! We welcome everyone, from beginners with no experience to competitors. At Western Taekwondo Club, you can improve your fitness, make new friends, gain confidence, partake in social events, and compete at tournaments.

Hi, my name is Sarah! I am thrilled to be the 2023-2024 Western Taekwondo Club President. To me, Western Taekwondo is not just a Club, but a family and a home away from home. I have made some of my best memories at Western through this Club. I look forward to meeting all of our new members and welcoming back old ones!

Events

Tournaments: Western Taekwondo Club competes in 2 tournaments in Toronto every year where they have the opportunity to compete against individuals across Ontario. All of our members are encouraged to participate. In our first tournament last year, 13 members competed and brought back over 15 medals! 

Socials: Western Taekwondo Club members always look forward to our monthly Club socials where we get to know each other outside of school and taekwondo. Some of our previous socials include: karaoke, escape room, trampoline park, arcade, ice skating, potlucks and group blind dinner.

Demo: For “Korea Day” we create a performance that includes kicking, action sequences, and board breaking with epic music! Members have the opportunity to participate in this spectacular show!
