OUR INSTRUCTORS ARE

Mark Bishop

I was born in 1964 and began training in 1997. I regularly competed throughout those years and enjoyed reasonable success, particularly in Tul/pattern. My objective with my students is to be a source of support and hopefully an inspiration. If I can instil confidence and improve their physical and mental well being, then I think that is the mark of success as an instructor.

Angela Bradley

I began my Taekwon-Do journey in my mid 30’s and haven’t looked back. I had my own schools until more recently when I was invited to join the New Wave Instructors. I really enjoyed the competitiveness and challenge of competition. Teaching is such an important role and it is extremely rewarding to see students achieve, confidence grow and friendships being made at all ages and levels.

Joshua Bishop

I have been training in Taekwon-Do since I was four years old and have been training in Kickboxing in my late teens. As well as competing in Taekwon-Do and earning my 3rd degree black belt, I’ve fought in K1 Kickboxing 8 times and managed to win an amateur title as well as winning a pro rules fight. I competed in MMA a couple of times and am still training in it.

OUR VALUES

We work together to create opportunities to help our students grow mentally and physically in life and in Martial Arts.
