We have been invited to participate in the Spanish Open International Sparring Championships in March 2025 and are hoping to take a team to the event.

Well done to all those who passed their colour belt grading on 12th November at our Kingswood School.

Grandmaster Davies along with 2 others sat on the Kukkiwon/WT history Panel for the BUTL in Manchester on Saturday. It was a unique and interesting event whereby GM George Vitale from the USA posed questions to the panel members followed by questions from the audience.

Bristol Taekwondo School had a great result on Saturday at the Southampton Open Taekwondo Competition which was attended by many clubs and top competitors. All of our Poomsae entries won gold and silver medals, standing out against their opposition for a clean sweep. We also took a gold and two bronze medals in sparring.

We had 6 entries winning 2 gold and one silver in Poomsae and a silver and 2 bronze in the Sparring. Our senior high level fighter fought another top opponent to set produce match of the day, with both fighters showing skill, speed, power, and tactics.

Our Sincere condolences to the family and friends, and all that knew former Kukkiwon President grandmaster Gang Won Sik (87) who has passed away on 3rd October 2024. He will be fondly remembered and may he rest in peace.
