Crown Tae Kwon Do Federation (CTF)

As a parent, I can't praise Crown Tae Kwon Do highly enough. My daughter is a student & her confidence and concentration have improved greatly since taking classes.The martial art is made fun in a very responsible environment.

The instructors at Crown Tae Kwon Do Federation are excellent and the martial arts classes taught are interesting.

Crown Tae Kwon Do in Biggin Hill is an excellent school for teaching martial arts. My young daughter has been attending for several months and not only does she find it great fun but she has gained in confidence.

Would definitley recommend this for anyone looking to learn a martial art whilst enjoying it.

Have used since Jan 2008. Recommended.

Fantastic club spirit - A wealth of experienced black belts to assist technically and add some spice to the mix of set forms & basics.

Very successful style of Tae Kwon Docompared to other Martial Arts in recent open competition - Great way to get fit and knock off a pound or two.

Highly recommendfor children to learn a martial art whilst gaining fitness, stamina and discipline.

Excellent standard all round.

CTF is the ideal club for youngsters (and indeed parents as well). Apart from the benefits of undertaking a martial art, it provides an avenue to meet new friends, have funa nd become part of a family community.
It is inspiring to see children's confidence grow in line with their increasing experience. This can be directly attributed not only to the excellent instructors but also the encouragement given by older children and indeed adults, all of whom embrace the family atmosphere.

We have no doubt that the positive ethos engendered in our son through his lessons will be nothing but beneficial throughout his lifetime.

Excellent!

A great way to keep fit and have fun!

Crwon Tae Kwon Do is excellent.

I have known Dave Crump in his professional capacity as a Crown Taekwondo coach for 4 years. During this time, in collaboration with the other black belt Masters, he has worked tirelessly to create a well constituted and efficiently run federation which has brought enormous benefits to a large number of adults and children from a wide variety of backgrounds. The growth and development of the Club is, in no small measure, owing to his commitment to enlisting support for Taekwondo and his expertise in organising and delivering high quality coaching sessions.

Inherent in Dave's approach to Taekwondo classes is a fundamental interest in developing individuals, not only through improved fitness and flexibility but also in helping to shape their characters. Increased confidence, self-discipline and self-motivation all result from the success achieved within this martial art. Dave is intuitively adept at recognising a lack of self-esteem in people and in employing strategies to develop their self-belief and determination to improve their skills and performance. He sets extremely high yet attainable targets in his lessons and invariably expects good punctuality and attendance as well as excellent behaviour. Students never leave his coaching sessions without having received helpful advice and encouragement to improve.

I have no reservations whatsoever in recommending Dave Crump for employment as a Taekwondo instructor.

As a former head teacher of three primary schools and a serving local authority School Improvement Partner and Ofsted inspector, I can highly recommend to you without reservation Master Dave and Crown Taekwondo Federation (CTF).

I have personally employed CTF Taekwondo at my school and found the instructors to be of the highest integrity and the instruction of outstanding quality. I employed CTF as part of my school's after school extended services provision. Classes were very well attended and all pupils made excellent progress in their Taekwondo training, rapidly advancing towards Black Belt. Parents also spoke very highly of CTF and enjoyed the extra dimension Taekwondo added to their children's educational and personal development. Many parents also enjoyed the added peace of mind of knowing that their children were learning an excellent form of self-defence, which is an invaluable life skill.

I highly recommend Master Dave and CTF Taekwondo and hope that more children get to benefit from this highly rewarding Olympic sport.
