Authentic Tae Kwon Do

A bit about us ...

Tae Kwon Do Tasmania is a proudly female-led martial arts school offering classes for Tigers (ages 4–6), children, teens, and adults across three Hobart locations. Whether you're building confidence, getting fit, or just looking for something different, you've found your place.

  • TKD HQ 57C Brisbane St, Hobart
  • Bellerive Primary School
  • Blackmans Bay Primary School

Tigers (ages 4–6)

Our Tigers class is the perfect introduction to Tae Kwon Do for children aged 4 to 6. Classes are fun, structured, and designed specifically for little learners.

Children (ages 6–12)

For students aged 6 to 12, Tae Kwon Do becomes a real journey. Technique deepens, patterns develop, and confidence grows. One belt at a time.

Adults (Age 12+)

Our Adults class welcomes students from age 12 all the way through to our senior members. No experience necessary, just show up and give it a go.

Train Together, Grow Together.

At TKD Tasmania, training as a family is more common than you'd think and more rewarding than you'd expect.

Families that train together don't just get fitter. They get closer.

What you’ll gain from Tae Kwon Do

For kids:

  • Respect that carries beyond the mat – expected in class, at school and in class
  • Confidence to speak up – from hesitant to willing to have a go
  • A second friendship circle – support and connection outside school
  • Focus and listening skills – learning to stay engaged and follow through
  • Discipline and accountability – understanding effort, behaviour, and responsibility
  • Coordination and physical confidence – balance, control, and movement
  • Resilience – learning to handle challenges and keep going
  • A positive outlet for energy – structured, active time that works

For adults:

  • Time that’s yours – step out of work, parenting, and daily noise
  • Fitness without the gym – strength, flexibility and coordination in a class setting
  • Mental reset – focus, clarity, and a break from constant thinking
  • Confidence and presence – feeling stronger and more comfortable in your body
  • Progress you can see – belts, skills, and tangible improvement over time
  • A supportive environment – no ego, no pressure, just turn up and train

Our Philosophy

Self Control

In a world full of distractions, self control is a superpower. We help students of every age develop the focus and discipline to make better decisions in class, at school, and in life.

Self Defence

Self defence isn't about fear, it's about freedom. The freedom to walk through the world knowing you have the tools to look after yourself and the people you love.

Self Respect

Respect starts from within. When students learn to value their own effort, progress, and character, they naturally extend that same respect to others in the Dojang and beyond.

Our Classes & Locations

A martial art built for everyone. Tigers, teens, adults, and families training together.

Frequently asked questions

Not at all. Every single one of our students started exactly where you are now as a complete beginner. Our Instructors are experienced at welcoming new students of all ages and abilities, and classes are structured so that newcomers can follow along comfortably from day one. The only thing you need to bring is a willingness to give it a go.

For your first trial class, comfortable active wear is perfectly fine. Shorts or trackpants and a t-shirt work great. Once you decide to join, students wear a traditional Tae Kwon Do uniform called a Dobok, which we can help you organise. No special footwear is needed as training is done in bare feet.

Belt progression is one of the most rewarding parts of the Tae Kwon Do journey. Students are graded periodically based on their technique, knowledge, and readiness - not on a fixed timetable. This means students advance when they're genuinely ready, making each new belt a meaningful achievement. Your Instructor will let you know when the time is right.

Absolutely. All students are welcome to train at any of our three locations. Hobart CBD, Bellerive, and Blackmans Bay. This is great for families with busy or changing schedules, and means you'll never have to miss a class just because you can't make it to your usual venue.

Yes, and we strongly encourage it. We offer a free trial class so you or your child can experience Tae Kwon Do firsthand before making any decisions. It's the best way to get a feel for the class, meet the Instructors, and see if it's the right fit. Get in touch to book yours.
