Martial Arts in Archway

YOUR LOCALKIDS' DOJANG.

If you live in Archway, our hall is practically on your doorstep. Whitehall Park is part of N19, and many of our students walk to class.

Our club trains every Friday afternoon at St Andrew's Church, a large, light church hall tucked into the residential streets above Archway. It's an easy end to the school week: no long drive, no cross-London trip, just a short walk up the hill.

We teach Taekwondo, the Olympic martial art. For children it is an ideal mix of sport and discipline: lots of movement and kicking, alongside listening, self-control and respect for others.

Children are split into two age groups, beginners are welcome all year round, and the same head instructor teaches every class. If your child has been asking to try a martial art, Friday is a great day to start.

Why Archway Families Join

MORE THANJUST KICKS.

Families come to us for exercise and self-defence. They stay because of what it does for their child's character.

Stronger Self-Belief

Achieving each new belt shows children that effort pays off, and they carry that into everything else.

Better Behaviour

Bowing, lining up and listening to the coach become habits that last beyond the hall.

Fitness Without the Fuss

An hour of kicking, footwork and drills burns off energy at the end of a long school week.

Calm, Controlled Self-Defence

Children learn to keep their distance, stay calm and protect themselves responsibly.

Two Age Groups

A CLASS FOREVERY AGE.

Both groups train on Fridays at St Andrew's Church, a short walk from Archway station.

Our daughter started at Taekwondo Panthers two years ago. We spoke to several martial arts club in the area and by far Chaneil is the best! He has a wonderful disposition with children, is a great teacher and understands the appropriate amount of discipline. We also love the whole philosophy around Taekwondo - building resilience and confidence in one's character! As parents, we have debated to join the adult class! Our daughter loves working with Chaneil and we have been thrilled with her progress, confidence and resilience. We highly recommend Chaneil and Taekwondo Panthers.

I wanted to share how impressed I am with this Taekwondo club for kids and adults. The coach is fantastic - knowledgeable, patient, and caring. He was able to create a safe and fun environment for kids to learn and grow in their martial arts skills. My child has not only learned self-defense, discipline, and physical fitness through his classes, but has also gained confidence and made great friends. It's been amazing to see the progress my child has made since starting at this club. If you're looking for a great activity for your kids, I highly recommend this London Taekwondo Panthers club
