Dedicated Sessions
These sessions will have a specific focus that changes week to week.
Our term-time dedicated sessions are returning after the main session on Sunday! We are also putting on additional sessions on Saturday mornings. These will mostly be World Taekwondo (WT) Olympic-style refresher sessions with the occasional BUCS patterns practice session (both WT and ITF). These don’t take place every week due to other events on the weekends, so see below for the timetable!
Feel free to come along to these as a WT practitioner or if you wish to try some of the Olympic style of Taekwon-Do!
Membership Information for 2024-25
Everybody can attend two free taster sessions, after which you will need to register as an official club member.
For 2024-25, we are moving to an online membership platform. Click the link below to get started:
Once you create an account, head to “My Memberships” on the menu on the right-hand side, then “Add Membership” and select Oxford University Taekwon-Do School. We have a variety of membership options available:
- Oxford University Students: £120/year or £50/term
- Oxford University Staff: £200/year or £20/month
- Community Members: £300/year or £30/month
- Oxford Brookes University Students: £160/year or £15/month
Once you have paid, you will receive a QR code for your phone that will allow you to pass through the Iffley Road barriers. The code can also currently be added to an Apple Wallet.
Note: If you are a community member, you will need an Oxford University Sport ID. You can get one here by selecting the free ‘pay as you go’ option.
If You Have an Existing Membership
If you purchased a yearly membership over the summer using the old form system, or if you have a monthly or termly membership that is not yet expired:
Please purchase the relevant free continuing membership option and then purchase a paid one when your current membership expires. This will allow you to also use the online system.
Licences
The UKTA Licence is required by our sport's National Governing Body (UKTA) to provide you with insurance coverage to safely participate in our classes. This is different from the club's membership.
Existing Licence Holders: If you have previously bought a licence, you will receive an email when it expires. You can then purchase a new one. To check when your licence expires, click here.
New Licence Holders: If you have not bought a licence before, you will have filled in the form at your first session, so only the payment is required to be fully licensed.
How to Pay for Your Licence
Transfer the £35 licence fee to:
- Account Name: Oxford University Taekwondo School
- Sort Code: 40-35-34
- Account Number: 52594927
This will insure you for one year.
