What you should know about Taekwondo Martial Arts Perth WA

Club in Perth, Sports Club in Perth, Martial Arts in Perth

First Tae Kwon Do teaches the original, non-competitive style of Tae Kwon Do, which emphasises practical self-defence skills and the physical / mental development of our members. Our members train twice per week and also have the option of attending other First Tae Kwon Do classes at other venues throughout the week at no extra cost.

​Our members include schoolchildren, university students, and business professionals who understand the importance of honing their situational awareness and training to be mentally and physically ready for self-defence action, if the need should arise.

​The founder of First Tae Kwon Do Australia is Master Vernon Low who commenced teaching the art of Tae Kwon Do in Adelaide South Australia in the late 1960's before expanding his school into Western Australia. 

​We accept beginners from 6 to 60 years of age.  We invite prospective members to come along to a class to see what our training is like, and to apply for a free, no-obligation introductory class. Please feel free to contact us for more information.


Benefits First Taekwondo is a traditional non-competitve martial art and therefore reaches much further than mere Self Defence effectiveness. The discipline, mental training and varied techniques of First Tae kwon-do also provide the grounds for engendering in the practitioner a strong sense of confidence, fortitude, compassion, humility and resolve. It is this vital conditioning that separates the true practitioner from the one who has mastered only the physical aspects of the martial art. Other abilities that can be expected to be developed through dedicated practice under the supervision of an appointed First TaeKwonDo instructor are:   Benefits include:  
  • Increased Fitness & Good Health
  • Advanced Flexibility
  • Greater Strength
  • Developed Co-ordination
  • Superior Balance
  • Improved Concentration & Mental Focus
  • Greater Self Discipline
  • Boosted Self Confidence

It is simple to enrol, just attend any one of the many First Taekwondo centres listed. Enrolment is continuous throughout the year and an appointment is not necessary. Upon enrolment the beginner will be offered personalised training until such time that the member is transferred to another group to continue progress. You do not need to be fit to enrol because your experienced Instructor will bring your fitness level up gradually, according to the individuals progress. Instructions are deliberately made simple, clear and precise so that the practitioner can confidently understand the techniques and practice correctly. Instructions are never rushed, the progress of the individual will be based upon ones own rate of achievement and capacity.

FAQs What is First Tae Kwon Do?
First Tae Kwon Do is a traditional martial art school. We teach the Korean martial art of Tae Kwon Do for both practical self-defence purposes and the personal development of our members (in terms of physical conditioning, mental discipline, and other qualities). The head of First Tae Kwon Do is Master Vernon Low. He was the first Tae Kwon Do instructor in Australia when he began teaching in Adelaide in the 1960s, hence the school's name. Master Low expanded his school to Western Australia and now has many branches here in the Perth (Western Australia) metro area along with his original South Australia branches. What are the differences between being Tae Kwon Do, Karate, and Kung Fu?
Most Asian martial arts trace their history back to China, but in essence, Tae Kwon Do formally originated in Korea, Karate in Japan (via Okinawa), and Kung Fu in China. Each art shares some common elements with the others, but each one developed using different principles to maximise its effectiveness. In Tae Kwon Do, we generally use a greater percentage of leg techniques to give an increased reach advantage and to keep opponents outside their preferred striking range. Karate and Kung Fu practitioners generally use a greater percentage of hand and arm techniques, compared to Tae Kwon Do, but this is not to say that we neglect those techniques! Is martial art training dangerous?
It is a common misconception that martial art training is dangerous, with a relatively high risk of injury. In First Tae Kwon Do, all members learn about safety and respect in training from Day 1. While there is always some risk of physical injury, most members will encounter no injuries or only very minor injuries. Typically, the types of injuries seen in school sports (even non-contact sports such as basketball or netball) are more severe than what we encounter in our traditional martial art training. Does martial art training encourage violence?
Another common misconception is that martial art training encourages violence. In our experience, the reverse is generally true. In First Tae Kwon Do, the moral use of martial art skills is foundational to our training. All members are taught to respect each other as individual human beings; after only a few months' training, all should have developed a basic understanding that getting into a physical conflict is probably the least desirable self-defence option. That said, it is up to each individual to decide how he/she will approach martial art training and conduct him/herself through life. Is First Tae Kwon Do good for health and fitness?
First Tae Kwon Do has many benefits, of which better health and fitness are just a couple. Apart from strength, endurance, balance, coordination, and flexibility, First Tae Kwon Do is also excellent for building up mental toughness and calmness, and for stress relief. Bear in mind that outcomes will depend on how much effort you put into training, and that any exercise should be undertaken intelligently and safely. First Tae Kwon Do involves all the major muscle groups, both in individual exercises and in paired exercises (where you and a t
