The access to Taekwondo course is designed to give children and adults the opportunity to experience Taekwondo (TKD) training and decide if TKD is right for them before paying for uniforms etc.  As an Access Course, it will introduce them to the basic: Stances, Hand & Leg techniques of TKD as well as stretching exercises and fitness exercises.  There is no commitment to long term training when signing up for the Access Course.  If at the end of the course you decide TKD is not for you -that is fine.

The Access Course is a rolling programme that runs every month. To get the most from the course, we recommend registering and paying by the 25th of the month prior to your desired start date (for example, register and pay by 25th January for a February start).

You are still welcome to join later in the month; however, we will always aim to ensure you receive 4–8 sessions or, where appropriate, suggest a start date for the following month.

If a student is unable to attend any session for any reason, they must contact New Wave by phone or email to notify us of their absence. Please note that fees are non-refundable for missed sessions.

Students on the course MUST adhere to the New Wave Code of Conduct.

1. I will respect myself, fellow students and Instructors.

2. I will do my best to listen and learn from my Instructor, Assistant Instructors and fellow students.

3. I will give 100% effort in my lessons.

4. I will practice Taekwondo in my own time, as long as it is safe for me to do so, without risk of injury to myself and those around me.
