Fantastic experience: The classes are amazing and engaging. We first enrolled our daughter to the classes and eventually my husband and I too joined in the adults classes. Every class is different, everyone’s ability is considered and options are provided. We learn something new in each class so we look forward to attend training every week. Highly recommend the centre for Taekwondo training for all ages.

Fantastic experience: Probably one of the best TaeKwon-Do clubs in New Zealand. Extremely high quality and professional teaching, great community, and helpful and friendly members. The club suits and welcomes everyone from 6 to 80: children, teenagers, adults, families. So if you are after learning and practising a martial art, want to improve your fitness, and want to learn self defence, have a try and you will not regret it.

Fantastic experience: Amazing dojang! Has people of all ages so didn't feel alone as an adult, and also has many black belts which helps to motivate me. The instructors are all passionate and motivated and I am honoured to be a part of this dojang.

Sei Brown Published on Google 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for martial art and sport to do with your family, nothing greater than to achieve together. Fun friendly environment that continues to give outside the do jang. Builds confidence, discipline , self control, respect all those things that are important and you make some life long friends. I took 23 years off and returned with my 4 year old daughter - its been an amazing 10 year journey so far.

Fantastic experience: Paul M Taekwon-Do. Is the best thing that has happened to my family. My wife and 3 children joined 2 weeks ago. Everyone there is so polite, friendly and caring. With a great team of instructors you couldn’t ask for more. They are very patient, organised and easy to understand. We have tried several different martial arts schools around our area but nothing comes close to Paul M Taekwon-do ( honestly it’s the best ). We are really blessed to have found Paul M Taekwon-do and you will to.
