        We are a family friendly, traditional style Taekwondo school, taking students from 6 years old and upwards.
        Self-Defence is a very important aspect of training to us. We believe that it is better to be armed with the knowledge and skills before you need it!<\/p>

        The Wabi-Sabi Academy is, in essence, about self-defence; but not, perhaps, in the way most people think of self-defence\u2026
        Our vision is to provide a place and the resources where we can be a community that educates, lifts, mentors and encourages us all to be healthy, balanced and compassionate people.<\/p>

        We promote long-term, sustainable, holistic health.<\/p>

        We will directly address issues that affect our community that relate to safety and self defence \u2013 not just kicking and punching, but so much more.<\/p>

        Our curriculum is honest, comprehensive and taught over time.<\/p>

        We do not only teach a sport. We teach martial arts \u2013 a way of being.<\/p>

        \u201ctae\u201d<\/span>\u00a0means \u201cto strike or break with the foot\u201d
        \u201ckwon<\/span>\u201d means \u201cto strike or break with the fist\u201d
        \u201cdo\u201d<\/span>\u00a0means \u201cway\u201d, \u201cmethod\u201d, or \u201cart\u201d<\/p>

        Taekwondo combines combat, self-defence, sport, exercise, meditation and philosophy.<\/p>

        In 1989, Taekwondo was claimed as the world\u2019s most popular martial art in terms of number of practitioners and it has featured in the Olympics since 2000.There are two main branches of taekwondo \u201ctraditional taekwondo\u201d (martial art) and \u201csport taekwondo\u201d which is seen in the Olympics.<\/p>

        Taekwondo training is predominately kicking techniques but also includes blocking, punching, open-handed strikes, take-downs, throws, and joint locks as well as self-defense techniques.<\/p>

        A typical lesson can include:
        Warm up\u00a0<\/span>\u2013 loosen joints, get muscles warm to avoid injury
        Stretching\u00a0<\/span>\u2013 to increase flexibility
        Cardiovascular work\u00a0<\/span>\u2013 get hearts pumping, to increase stamina
        Strength work<\/span>\u00a0\u2013 to increase muscle strength
        Drills<\/span>\u00a0\u2013 basic movements of taekwondo
        Pad work<\/span>\u00a0\u2013 practice techniques against pads
