We combine an active and relaxed social club with high standards of martial arts. Students are supported by experienced teachers and student peers to gradually move through increasingly demanding belt levels.

Grading ceremonies are held every three to four months and if students have attended the required number of classes, practice outside class and demonstrate hard work and knowledge of the syllabus, they can expect to advance to the next belt level. Over many years, we have found that even the most tentative students have found gradings to be a valuable experience and an effective way to build confidence in other aspects of their lives.

Extra curricular activities, such as yoga, weekend beach or country training camps, black belt camps and a biennial national Tang Soo Tournament, complement the weekly training program. Occasional social events and celebrations of gradings also help establish an enjoyable training environment.

Tang Soo Tao is a non-profit organisation, which allows us to keep fees low. All teachers give most of their time on a voluntary basis and each student is expected to make a contribution to the development and maintenance of the club, which helps to create a sense of ownership of the club by all students.
