Karl James Tae Kwon Do

Taekwondo translates to 'The Art of the Foot & Hand'. It is a Korean Martial Art which although having roots in the ancient Orient, was developed to its present form in the middle of this century.

Karl James, 5th Dan, runs taekwondo schools in Croydon, Crawley and East Grinstead in the south of England. Karl began his training in taekwondo 31 years ago and has been instructing for 15 years. Karl originally began his training alongside his brother and father and due to having started in this way, realises the benefits of doing something together as a family. He promotes this in his classes and finds the family sessions he runs very rewarding.
