At Koryo Taekwondo Centre, we boast one of the largest Para Taekwondo teams in the country as we believe martial arts should be accessible to everyone. Our Para Taekwondo program is designed specifically for individuals with physical, intellectual and developmental disabilities, offering a supportive environment where students can thrive, grow and achieve their personal best.
Our Para Taekwondo program is built on the same values that guide all of our training – respect, perseverance, discipline and confidence – with customised instruction that meets the unique needs of each participant. We focus on ability, not limitation.
What Sets Our Program Apart:
👊 Inclusive & Adaptive Instruction – Classes are tailored to individual abilities, with modifications made to techniques, drills, and forms as needed. We work closely with each student (and their families or carers) to ensure training is safe, engaging, and rewarding
👊 Experienced & Compassionate Coaches – Our instructors are trained to work with students with diverse needs, fostering an encouraging environment that emphasises progress, not perfection.
👊 Physical & Mental Benefits – Taekwondo helps improve coordination, balance, motor skills, focus, and self-esteem. It’s also a great way to stay active, make new friends, and be part of a supportive community.
👊 Progress & Achievement – Just like in our mainstream program, Para Taekwondo students have the opportunity to progress through belt gradings, participate in demonstrations, and even explore competition pathways where appropriate.
👊 Community & Belonging – We are proud to create an inclusive space where every student feels valued, respected, and empowered.
