Welcome to the Ely School of Taekwon-do  website. We are a  long time established school which is  instructed by Master John Taylor VIII.  The school is a member  of the ITF Wales which in turn is a member  of the UKTA, the original Taekwon-Do association set up in 1967 by Grand Master Rhee Ki Ha IX who introduced Taekwon-do to the UK. As part of the Welsh UKTA network, many of our members have gone on to gain black belt qualification, train under leading experts within the organisation and win countless medals at regional, national and international competition level. The Ely School caters for all for all ages with class members from 6 to 40+ and whether it be for self defence, fitness, confidence or just interest in the art all are welcome to come along and train and you will get out of it what you put into it.                                                                          This is the original Tae Kwon-Do which was taught by the late founder, General Choi Hong Hi (1918-2002)
