Brisbane Taekwondo Centre

I have been a member at BTC for a while and over that time my fitness and skill levels have improved a great deal. During that time i have also made some great friends who all share a common interest.Adam and Chris run both technically and physically challenging classes that cater to the individual level of each participant. Not many other clubs can boast a 6th and 7th Dan as their head instructors.On top of the TKD there is also a strong emphasis on self defence that encapsulates other disciplines such as boxing, hapkido and BJJ.I would recommend BTC to anyone that wants to expand their horizons by learning a martial art, improving their self defence skill or just to get fitter, as there are always friendly faces there ready to push you to that next level. (you just need to ask).

I have been doing TKD at BTC for almost 5 years now, and although I have no experience from other clubs I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here, the instructors are friendly and competent, the syllabus seems based on what is effective and useful in a fight, and like any other sport your fitness and skill level will increase in response to how much effort and energy you put into your training. Personally I found my fitness to increase significantly over my time here, and would recommend it to anyone looking to do martial arts in a friendly environment.

One of the greatest places in Brisbane. It was my first experience with martial arts and BTC staff really made it easy and fun.

I spent a fair amount of time at BTC. As a practitioner of Taekwondo, I can safely say that this is NOT a club. It is a business. The curriculum is NOT up to standard, people that receive black belts are NOT of that skill level at all. Promotions testings are simple and boring. It seems that most people pay their way to black belt. This is disappointing because some people know what good technique looks like from seeing other clubs, youtube, members that actually have skill etc and yet people that should barely have left white belt are moving to a first dan. Ludicrous.For the everyday person that comes once or twice a week, classes and testing are a challenge. For those that come more often and do their own training, this club is terrible and presents minimal challenge or interest. The techniques taught are boring and are never instructed properly. The instructors themselves are sub standard and do not fit my idea of a black belt.You also get locked into a contract which is over priced for what you are getting back and is difficult to get out of.I have watched kids promotion tests and it's the same deal. Terrible standard, kids that look like they haven't been prepared at all, instructors that look like they are making up the syllabus as they go.To sum up, don't waste your time here. You won't learn taekwondo, you're fitness will not increase that much or will plateau quickly, you'll be locked into a contract that you will want to get out of and you'll be stuck with instructors that know less about the martial art than you do! Avoid at all costs.

I started doing martial arts with BTC when I turned 50 and was amazed at the changes that happened in my life.The fitness and agility gained improved my ability to enjoy my job more as I have additional energy and am able to sustain working longer hours with better concentration in a busy management position. Friends that I play tennis with asked if I have been getting lesson as my game had improved so much that I can chase down a ball more easily and my general reflexes and movement improved by a factor of 30-40%.The BTC experience has been fantastic and whilst is hard work and challenging at times it is something that I am proud of being involved in after achieving continued improvement and higher belt levels over time.

BTC is a professional club, every detail is covered and they are very clear about everything. there is so much variety of classes and activities and all of the instructors are very friendly. The gym is a real bonus and its great that not many people use it! Overall i would certainly recommend BTC to anyone. I have met lots of people here to so its a great way to make friends.
