I’ve been training here for a year now and honestly wish I’d started sooner! Master Thompson is approachable, patient and encouraging, and the whole team makes you feel welcome from day one. It’s a brilliant place to learn Taekwondo, build confidence and meet new people. There are also plenty of great social events, which create a real sense of community outside of training. I’d highly recommend it to anyone thinking about giving Taekwondo a go.

Steven Marshall

A genuinely excellent class. My son is 8 and has being going for a year or so now and he absolutely loves it. Mr. Thompson creates a wonderful environment for the kids.

Ben Darnell

My daughter has been going to TKD for the last year and I highly recommend it. The change in her self confidence has been the biggest thing. She absolutely loves the classes and is very proud of picking up Korean, counting, the commands, and all the terminology. The instructors are very encouraging with the kids.

Adriana M

Highly recommend! Mr Thompson is amazing, very patient and extremely professional. My daughter loves the classes and especially now when she moved to the next group. Been more than 2 years now, we all love it.

Michael

I have been training Taekwon-do with Master Thompson for 3 years now. My only regret is I haven't started earlier. Master Thompson is a very experienced, patient and dedicated coach, making all classes fun and challenging. I cannot recommend Master Thompson highly enough. Join without hesitation, you will not regret it.

Veronika Valcheva

My daughters are currently attending Taekwondo and they truly enjoy every lesson whilst they are learning so much from Master Thompson. He is not only knowledgeable but also patient and supportive, ensuring every class is both challenging and enjoyable!

Astrid Baez

I am incredibly grateful for the positive impact that Tunbridge Wells Taekwon-Do has had on my daughter. From the very first class, it was clear that Mr Thompson is not only a skilled and knowledgeable teacher but also a compassionate and patient mentor. He and his coaches create an environment where kids feel motivated, supported, and challenged, all while having fun. My daughter has grown in both confidence, skill, and wellbeing and we can't thank them enough.

Jamara Magondacan

Since I was 4, I have been learning taekwondo with Master Thompson for around 11 years. Since then, I have been enjoying every lesson with him ever since. I am taught by a team of inspiring, supportive and valiant taekwondo teachers. Everyone in the classis massively supportive . I highly recommend taekwondo if you would like a challenge but also an opportunity to make some lifelong friends. <3 -Jamara :)

Joe Morley

I came over from Uckfield to train here for a couple of days! The classes are amazing, Mr Thompson (the instructor) is so kind and knowledgeable, I really progressed in these two sessions I highly recommend this Taekwondo club, Joe

Angie Senanes

I started at T Wells TKD in April 24 and honestly it was the best decision! I did not know what to expect as I am 29 and have never done Taekwon-Do before. Everyone is super friendly and supportive. I’ve made friendships, I’ve taken part in a competition, and I’ve graded. All of this was possible because master Thompson is always supportive and experienced. If you are in doubt or worried about starting, just do it! You will not regret it 💕💕
