You will be taught all aspects of Taekwondo within your grade by Instructors who have trained with some of the greatest Grand Masters in the world. We have travelled the world to learn new skills and improve our knowledge of this wonderful and exciting martial art..

Our Instructors have trained and taught for well over twenty years and all have SCRO disclosure check certificates. We have amongst us Scottish, British, European and World Champions in Patterns, Sparring and Power Breaking.
Those are our proven credentials, second to none. There is so much more but rather than write screeds come and experience it for yourself.

Hello everyone, Mr Cahill here. As you know the Pan European Championships are coming to Dundee very soon, 30th June, 1st and 2nd July. Master Swift and myself are co-hosting this event and we have been working tirelessly for many months to make this a spectacular event for us all. There are teams travelling from all over to come to our City and compete at the DISC and as such I'm asking you to support us by competing or coming to spectate. Every Dundee Wildcats student should grab the opportunity to compete and everyone's more than capable of doing well. So don't let me down, I'd really like to see you there. Get your family and friends to come and spectate. This chance might not come to Dundee again so see me for tickets and as you know every Dundee Wildcat student and immediate family are getting in to every event half price.

Entry Forms, Spectators and Buffet Disco Dance

2017-06-08T14:16:00.000+01:00

Hello everyone, typical Scottish weather, lol. Squad training will be this Saturday at Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh.We will leave the BB Hall, at 12.30 as training is from 2.00 to 4.00pm. Get home for most of the match.

All students have been given a Pan European Taekwondo Championships entry form. On the form are the divisions you will be competing in, weekend passes, spectator and Buffet Disco Dance tickets.Please get them back to me as putting this Competition on is a very large logistic undertaking and I need to collate all the information asap.

As you can see most things are half price for our students and immediate family. This is possible because of all your hard work in collecting donations via the Bridge Walk, Quiz Night, Car Boot Sale and many other events.Great effort and thank you all so much. Any money left over will be split between everyone.

Master Swift and I have spent many months putting this Competition together and I would ask that everyone compete and come to support our Scotland Team on the Friday and each other throughout the weekend. It's up to us to welcome all the competitors from other countries to Dundee and show them our inimitable hospitality.

Please get your entry forms, disco and spectator details to me as quickly as you can.

I appreciate your assistance in this.

Kindest regards MrC
