Ch'ang-Hon Taekwon-Do
This name derives from the original set of patterns which
were created by Choi Hong Hi, the Korean founder of Taekwon-Do.
The Wells based Taekwon-Do School, under the
tutelage of Chief Instructor Mr Jason Burgess, trains under the
identity of the Wells Ch'ang-Hon Taekwon-Do Academy.
The club is a member of an independent National
Governing Body called Global Taekwondo
International, who are in turn affiliated to the UK-ITF. In the 50th anniversary year of Taekwon-Do's
inauguration, in 2005, Mr Burgess took the decision to create more of an
individual identity for the school. The school was renamed, a new
club badge was created & along with it, a supporting philosophy for
the club.
The result is a blending of the traditional with the new; a
strong physical Art backed up by a sound philosophy.
Any enquiries regarding the Wells TKD School, Taekwon-Do or
martial arts in general, can be directed to me at the following

There are 24 patterns in
Taekwondo, ranging from 19 move patterns to 72 move patterns.
The initial patterns are very symmetrical & most combinations
or movements are repeated with both sides of the body, in
opposite directions. These first few patterns are reasonably
basic & introduce the novice student to the most common
stances, blocking techniques, strikes & kicks....(more)
