The UK Taekwondo
Development Council (UKTDC) consists of a growing number of like minded highly
qualified and accredited WTF style Taekwondo Masters who have come together to
form a progressive 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 core 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.

United Kingdom Taekwondo Development council is described in Combat/Taekwondo

the UKTDC will be be an opportunity to enhance or establish new contacts and
develop relationships in a style specific structure and environment.
