The UK Taekwondo Development Council (UKTDC) consists of a number of like minded highly qualified and accredited WTF style Taekwondo Masters who have come together to form a working relationship to create a constructive and transparent environment from which to promote WTF/Kukkiwon style Taekwondo in the UK.

We welcome and invite WTF/Kukkiwon style practitioners into membership, who wish to become involved with the development and promotion of our aims and built upon the platform recently established.

The aim of the UKTDC is to establish a cohesive framework and network in which instructors and practitioners concerned with the development of WTF/Kukkiwon style Taekwondo within the United Kingdom can affiliate to for training, accreditation, insurance, competition, and support for all Taekwondoists in the UK.

We hope to include and cater for as many WTF/Kukkiwon style practising clubs as possible including professional, independent and amateur schools, and shall adopt a flexible approach to accommodate this in a professional manner.

The United Kingdom Taekwondo Development council is described in a recent Combat/Taekwondo & Korean Martial Arts Magazine as " New hope & a new future for the WTF in the UK". For many the UKTDC will be be an opportunity to enhance or establish new contacts and develop relationships in a style specific structure and environment.

The UKTDC is recognised as a kukkiwon registering body and the only major credible alternative to the NGB for development of WTF style Taekwondo in the UK
