Building Confidence, Community & Character Through Taekwondo

At Turner Taekwon-Do CIC, martial arts is more than just sport — it’s a family passion and a community mission. Led by Mr. and Mrs. Turner, our club is dedicated to empowering people of all ages through Taekwondo, helping them grow stronger, more confident, and more connected to their community.

​

Our Story: A Family Journey That Sparked a Movement

Our Taekwondo journey began not on the mats, but as parents. Wanting our five children to learn discipline, confidence, and resilience, we enrolled them in Taekwondo classes. What started as a way to support our kids soon became a life-changing passion for us as a family.

As we watched the positive impact Taekwondo had on our children — improving their focus, character, and self-belief — we were inspired to step onto the mats ourselves. What began as encouragement from the sidelines became a personal and professional calling.

Today, Mr. and Mrs. Turner proudly lead Turner Taekwon-Do CIC, guiding students of all ages and backgrounds on their own martial arts journeys. What was once a family hobby has grown into a thriving community club, where people come together to train, learn, and grow in a safe and supportive environment.

​

Our Mission as a CIC

As a Community Interest Company (CIC), Turner Taekwon-Do is more than a business — we are a social enterprise committed to giving back to the community.

Our mission is to:
✅ Make Taekwondo accessible to everyone, regardless of age, background, or ability.
✅ Help people grow in confidence, fitness, and mental well-being.
✅ Foster community spirit by creating a welcoming space where individuals and families support one another.
✅ Offer affordable, inclusive classes, and reinvest in projects that benefit the wider community.
✅ Inspire lifelong learning and leadership, creating positive role models both inside and outside the dojang.

We believe martial arts can transform lives, not just through physical skill, but through the lessons of perseverance, respect, and community spirit.

Taekwondo: A Way of Life

For our family, Taekwondo is more than a hobby — it’s a way of life. It's taught us discipline, patience, and the importance of leading by example.
Every class we teach is an opportunity to share that passion, helping others become stronger, more confident, and more connected to their community.

Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to continue your martial arts journey, you’ll find a home with us.
