We are fortunate to have on board a well respected and highly qualified Tae Kwon Do instructor with over 20 years experience with WTF and ITF Tae Kwon Do Federations. We have great pleasure in introducing Mr Alan Hughes who has recently received his 5th dan instructor's licence with Bac Loong Gar Martial Arts through the BNMAA. Alan, who also trains in Wing Chun and Tai Chi Chuan is happy to take on the role of Chief Instructor for the Korean Martial Arts within our schools. He is an ex-Marine and retired police officer and is currently a Police Self Defence Trainer, a Conflict Management Trainer and is a fully fledged St John Ambulance instructor.

Alan's classes are structured in a specific syllabus format, on a traditional basis only, as are all our classes. This means that no competition fighting is necessary, nor such conditions as refereeing in order to gain grades. Instruction does include sparring, but in the main, Alan concentrates on traditional techniques, and our usual grading system applies which is recognised by the BNMAA. The new class runs every Friday in Newquay, at the Scout Hall, Trenarth Road, times 5 - 7pm. New beginners, existing students and cross trainers all welcome.
