Testimonial

Our family’s involvement with the Platinum Taekwon-Do club over the past 4 years has been extremely beneficial to my children (son & daughter) for so many reasons – increasing fitness levels, stamina, flexibility, co-ordination, focus and confidence. Through the tournaments they have not only learnt how to participate as individuals but also learnt to value each team member’s contribution.

I only have praise for Adeline and Paul. They are exemplary instructors who nurture their students, bringing out the best in each child/individual. I am very grateful that my children have such wonderful role models in their life and look forward to many more years of association with this great club.
