FAQ

Rhee Tae Kwon-Do is a form of martial art a lot like what people perceive Karate to be however Tae Kwon-Do originated in Korea where Karate is from Japan. The words Tae Kwon-Do basically mean Tae (to kick) Kwon (to punch/strike) and Do (art/way/method).

World Master Rhee: this is where we get the name from. Tae kwon-Do is the type of martial art while RHEE is the style. In essence we do Master Rhee’s Way of Kicking and Punching. Master Rhee was the first to ever bring any form of Tae Kwon-Do to Australia in the 60’s and many of the Masters of the other styles of Tae Kwon-Do were originally students of Master Rhee’s before they decided to start their own version of Tae Kwon-Do. Master Rhee still travels 4 times a year to hold special Action Days/Meetings for all students & Instuctors to attend (free of charge) and continue the learning to ensure all are getting the most up to date information possible. “Straight from the horse’s mouth” so to speak.

We believe RHEE Tae Kwon-Do provides the absolute highest quality instruction on the mid north coast. We’ve also worked out the easiest way for families to budget for our schooling by having a monthly tuition fee that doesn’t require you signing a lock in contract and there’s no minimum sign up. You simply pay for the months you intend to attend. And best of all there are no hidden costs. All coloured belt promotions, belts, park/beach training, Action Days and unlimited classes per month are included. Simply put: for your money you will be given the BEST value possible.

Rhee Tae Kwon-Do runs classes all year round. We take time off over Christmas but otherwise most other school holidays we run classes. There may be times when the hall we use is unavailable or if it’s made clear that the vast majority of the class is not going to attend on that day then the Instructor will inform the class appropriately. If unsure ask the Instructor but generally if we haven’t told you that there’s NOT a class on then there will be.

The majority of our classes are family classes that allow greater convenience for adults, children, seniors and beginners to train side by side as it increases the amount of classes they can attend. Another benefit of this system is enables younger children to begin to learn to defend against an adult attacker, something that can’t be done in kids only classes. By having senior students and beginners in the same class it helps beginners learn by seeing how things should be done and the senior learns leadership, humility and control by helping beginners learn the syllabus. This system helps many families who have more than one child wanting to learn but they’re at different ages or ranks. Parents are able to bring them both to the same class at the same time instead of having to juggle their time management. RHEE Tae Kwon-Do instructors are very experienced at running classes this way.

This varies on individuals own effort & ability & the instructors leadership. Generally speaking it should take no longer than 3 months to begin seeing improvements. You’re Instructor will be more than happy to discuss your progress in private if asked.

All Rhee Tae Kwon-Do Instructors have been appointed and permitted to run a class with the approval of Master Rhee himself. This ensures that all Instructors are held accountable and responsible for teaching correctly and safely therefore maintaining a superior standard. All mid north coast Rhee Tae Kwon-Do Branch Instructors are work with children accredited and first aid qualified.
