Warrington Demo - Callands Primary School, Saturday 12th July.
Welcome

The Traditional Taekwondo Association was set up by Grandmaster T.K. Loh in 1989 in order to spread Taekwondo the way it was originally intended- as a holistic concept of training the mind and body. The TTA looks to provide its students with an understanding of the capability of the human mind and body, and aims to instil the ideas of mental strength and a persevering spirit.

The TTA also aims to enable its practitioners to focus and concentrate their mind on the varying tasks and obstacles that Taekwondo presents as well as attaining the indomitable spirit to overcome them, thus building their confidence level and providing them with the humility attained through their achievement.

The TTA seeks to provide its students with leadership training and to develop a sense of self-discipline as well as the discipline of their focus, coupled with an ability to conduct themselves with proper decorum and etiquette.

The T.T.A. strives to train its members to the highest level of competitive skills so that they are able to participate at any international arena and be second to none.

Black Belt Grading News 

Mr. Smith promoted to 5th Dan.
The club is now home to the first person to achieve 5th Dan in the Traditional Taekwondo Association. Mr. Smith has been doing taekwondo for 24 years and has been an instructor for almost 20 years. He started the St. Helens Club in the late 1980s after passing his 1st Dan in 1988. He has successfully trained many students to black belt and beyond and his achievements are recognition of the time and dedication he has for Taekwondo. All his students are very proud of his well deserved achievements. 

The success doesn't end there, Warrington and St. Helens Instructor Caroline Tinsley also took the grading exam and has been promoted to 2nd Dan. She has been teaching for over 2 years now and is looking forward to continuing the high standard that has been reached by the club in the past.
