A real grading pathway
Students progress through the Kukkiwon kup ranks — 10th Kup white belt up to black stripe, then Dan grades. The full syllabus for every rank is published online.
More than kicking
Courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and indomitable spirit are taught as deliberately as technique. Parents tell us they see it first in concentration and listening.

Getting started
Four steps.
Registration takes about four minutes. You can do it on your phone.
Register online
Complete the form with the student's details and the parent or guardian's contact, and sign the waiver.
Send two passport photographs
These are for the student's Kukkiwon record and grading book. WhatsApp them to us, or hand them in at the first class.
Order the dobok
We measure and order the uniform for you. Gym clothes are fine for the first few sessions while it is on the way.
Come to class
Turn up on a Tuesday or Thursday at the session time for your child's school level. Bring water.
Questions parents ask
Before you sign up.
Does my child need any experience?
None at all. Most students start at White Belt with no background in martial arts, and the session is structured so beginners work alongside experienced students at their own level.
Is there a free trial class?
No — we do not run a free trial. You are very welcome to come and watch a session before deciding, which costs nothing; just let us know the day before so we can expect you.
What does my child need to bring?
Water and comfortable sports clothing to begin with. Once the dobok arrives, that is the training uniform. No sparring gear is needed to start — the instructor will say when it is.
Is this only for Hillel Academy students?
The programme runs on the Hillel Academy campus and is built around the school timetable. If your child attends another school and you would like them to join, message Master Ken on 876‑784‑1808 and he will let you know what is possible.
How does grading work?
Students grade through the Kukkiwon kup ranks. Master Ken decides when a student is ready — it depends on attendance, technique and attitude rather than time served. The full syllabus for every rank is published at worldtkdmandeville.com/belt-grading-syllabus.
Can adults train?
This programme is for Prep and High School students. Adults are welcome at World Taekwondo Mandeville, or by private arrangement — message Master Ken and he will sort it out.
What if we need to stop?
Tell us before the next month begins and no further tuition is charged. There is no contract and no cancellation fee.
Spaces are limited each term.
Classes are capped so every student gets corrected properly. Register now to hold your child's place.
