FAQ

Answer: Not at all! Rhee Taekwondo classes in Victoria are designed for absolute beginners of all fitness levels. You learn at your own pace in a supportive, non-judgmental environment, focusing on personal growth rather than keeping up with others.

Answer: We focus entirely on practical self-defense, fitness, and traditional techniques. Because our classes are strictly non-competitive, there is no pressure to enter tournaments or spar aggressively. It’s all about real-world confidence, safety, and physical conditioning. Self defence through the Art of TaeKwonDo

Answer: Yes! Rhee Taekwondo is exceptionally family-friendly. We offer classes where parents and children can train side-by-side, making it a fantastic shared activity that builds discipline, focus, and quality family time. Self defence through the Art of TaeKwonDo means that children learn to interact with adults in a safe manner.

Answer: Just comfortable, loose-fitting clothing (like trackpants and a t-shirt) that allows you to move freely. We train barefoot, so no special shoes or gear are required to get started. Please bring a water bottle too.

We started training here as a family of four a few months ago. Our family consists of a primary school kid, a high schooler, an athletic mum, and a not very athletic dad with fond memories of taekwondo in his youth. We looked around at the martial arts options in our local area, and this class stood out for a few reasons. Firstly, there’s much more of a practical focus than in sports-oriented taekwondo. No disrespect to the other styles, but I would prefer my kids to learn the original, self-defence oriented taekwondo than be focused on scoring ‘points’. Secondly, we can train as a family of four in the same class – this changes it from an after school activity for the kids, into something for all of us. With both parents working full time, it's so hard to find time to exercise and also take the kids to activities, so being able to combine it really makes it sustainable.... Google review

Rhee-viewing

During the 1970s our main Dojang was in Little Bourke St in the Melbourne CBD. It was a narrow multi-story building with wooden floors that provided a relatively soft landing and probably one of the reasons that the building was eventually demolished to make way for a new skyscraper. 
Master Rhee would demonstrate various high flying kicks into a heavy bag suspended from a rafter, sending the bag swinging across the room.
