Tavistock TAGB Taekwondo was formed in May 2007 and has gone from strength to strength.

Originally under the instruction of Mr Paine the club opened it doors in the same home of Tavistock College as it is now.

Two of the first student to come through the doors are now the Instructors Mr Dan Hunt and Mrs Anna Hunt.

Mr Hunt had previously trained back in 1996 when a TAGB club was running in Tavistock. This club unfortunately closed its doors, so when  new TAGB club opened in Tavistock Mr Hunt was delighted and joined up straight away. He had tried many others martial arts in-between, but nothing fit like the family feeling and organisation of the TAGB.

Both Mr and Mrs Hunt started back at White belt, grading in the minimum time with A passes and grading awards along the way. 

Eventually both earning Black Belt at the same time with lots of hard work and dedication.

At first Mrs Hunt only came along to try Taekwondo to keep Mr Hunt company.

Mr Hunt had the chance to take on his dream of becoming a taekwondo Instructor.

This was made better by it being Tavistock Taekwondo.

With over 25 years of martial arts experience he loved this new achievement.

The club since it opened has produced Multiple Local, National and World Champions and Medalists. These have been achieved in Patterns , Sparring and Destruction.

We continue to compete in The TAGB competitions which are the some largest Taekwondo competitions in the country. These competitions are very well known and respected world wide.

Both Mr and Mrs Hunt currently 3rd Degree Black Belts working towards 4th.

They are both TAGB and BTC qualified instructors and are level 3 first aid qualified along with enhanced DBS ( used to be CRB) checked.
