Amazing experience at London Taekwondo…

Amazing experience at London Taekwondo Warriors (Windsor branch).

The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming and positive. The instructors are outstanding, friendly, motivating, and genuinely invested in helping every student improve and gain confidence. Every class is engaging, well-structured, and full of energy, with a great mix of technique, fitness, and skill development.

I’ve seen great improvements in confidence, fitness, and overall skills since joining.

Overall, London Taekwondo Warriors is an excellent place to train in Taekwondo. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to learn, grow, and be part of a positive and inspiring community.

Order never delivered

Ordered directly from London TKD Shop, received order confirmation, and paid them directly — but the goods were never delivered.
When I contacted them, instead of resolving the issue, I was told to chase their supplier myself. Multiple follow‑up emails, including a refund request, were ignored completely.
Very poor customer service and lack of responsibility. Not recommended to anyone considering purchasing goods from this company.

This Taekwondo school offers a warm atmosphere and is expertly managed! With personal experience in both the children's and women's classes, I can strongly endorse them. The Masters are motivating, providing excellent physical and mental exercises, particularly beneficial for children, while ensuring everyone has a great time!

Best TKD club in West London

Arezo is a fantastic instructor, absolutely love it here! This is one of the only WT taekwondo clubs in London which hosts separate classes for women and girls. All the instructors are friendly and professional and the club has venues all over London. They offer high quality kits and fun, educational lessons that leave you feeling accomplished. Would defo recommend :)

I love the ladies lessons at Harrow

I joined the ladies lessons at Harrow three months ago and I am very happy. The instructor, Arezo, is very kind and professional. She always demonstrates to prepare each lesson with care and always bringing new exercises. It's a very friendly environment and we all have a good relationship were we help each other.

The Best Taekwondo Organisation in Great Britain!

I’ve been with London Taekwondo Warriors for the past 4 years, and I can confidently say this is the best martial arts organisation in the UK. My son and daughter both attend regularly and absolutely love it. The level of professionalism, structure, and discipline is unmatched.

The instructors are not only highly qualified and experienced but also truly passionate about nurturing every student’s potential — both physically and mentally. The leadership and management behind LTW are exceptional, setting high standards in every aspect of training, safety, and communication.

If you’re looking for an elite-level martial arts academy that values excellence, discipline, and growth, look no further than London Taekwondo Warriors. Thank you for all you do!

Outstanding Taekwondo School!

Outstanding Taekwondo School!

Both of my kids have been training with London Taekwondo Warriors for the past three years, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The instructors are not only highly skilled and professional but also incredibly patient, encouraging, and great with children.

My kids have grown so much—not just in terms of technique and physical fitness, but also in confidence, discipline, and focus. The environment is always positive, respectful, and supportive, which makes every class something they look forward to.

We’re truly grateful to be part of this amazing martial arts family. Highly recommend to any parents looking for a top-quality Taekwondo program in London!

As a parent

As a parent, I find it deeply concerning and troubling that my child—and some of her peers—are not receiving the same level of attention and care as other children. It appears that children of Black and Brown descent are not being supported or looked after equally compared to their European counterparts. While this does not reflect the behavior of all instructors, there is one in particular whose actions are especially noticeable. I sincerely hope she reconsiders her approach, especially as someone who is a foreigner herself.

London Taekwondo Warriors is, overall, a well-managed club with many dedicated individuals. However, this recurring pattern has caused significant stress and has led me to question whether this is the right environment for my child moving forward.

Thank you for sharing your concerns. At London Taekwondo Warriors, we want to be absolutely clear — inclusivity, diversity, and equality are at the heart of everything we do. Our students and families come from a wide range of cultural, ethnic, and faith backgrounds, and we are proud that LTW has become one of the most diverse martial arts communities in London.

All of our instructors are DBS-checked, safeguarding trained, and committed to treating every child with the same level of respect, care, and attention. Many of our senior instructors, including our female leadership, have themselves overcome barriers as immigrants and role models, and they embody the values of fairness, equality, and opportunity.

We take any concern seriously and will review this matter further, but we strongly reassure you that every student — regardless of background — is supported and celebrated at LTW. Our mission is to empower all young people equally through Taekwondo, helping them grow in confidence, discipline, and respect.

Disappointed with the Decline in Hayes LTW Class

Very disappointed with the current state of the Hayes LTW Taekwondo class. This is supposed to be the main class, run by the LTW head instructor Jawed, but the quality has dropped noticeably.

Instructor often seem disengaged, on the phone or walking around rather than leading the class, while unqualified individual without any visible Taekwondo experience or belt (another students parent), are left to run the session. It’s extremely concerning, especially for what should be the flagship class.

I also echo what others have pointed out: there’s now more focus on increasing fees, pushing frequent and costly gradings, and selling equipment, rather than delivering proper training and supporting student progress.

This shift in priorities does not align with the true values and virtues of Taekwondo or sportsmanship. What once felt like a disciplined environment now feels more like a business operation than a martial arts school.

Unfortunately, it now feels more commercial than committed to martial arts excellence.

Dear A J W,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. At London Taekwondo Warriors, we uphold the highest standards of martial arts instruction, rooted in the traditional values and virtues of Taekwondo—respect, integrity, perseverance, and self-control.

We are proud of our inclusive and diverse team of professionals who are all fully qualified, DBS-checked, and trained in safeguarding and first aid. Each class is led or overseen by Kukkiwon-certified instructors with extensive experience, and we follow a rigorous, structured curriculum that is reviewed regularly to ensure consistency, engagement, and excellence.

Your concern about the involvement of parents or others in sessions requires clarification: any individuals who assist during classes are not arbitrarily assigned. They are either qualified assistant instructors or long-standing black belts with over a decade of experience and the necessary certifications to support delivery under the supervision of lead instructors. This approach is pedagogically aligned with the leadership development philosophy embedded within martial arts instruction—where advanced students are gradually entrusted with responsibilities to build their confidence, leadership qualities, and communication skills in real time. These sessions are always directly supervised by senior instructors.

Regarding your comments on class focus, equipment, or grading frequency—these claims appear speculative. We are transparent with all parents and students about costs, grading timelines, and equipment needs, all of which align with Kukkiwon standards and long-term student development goals. No concerns of this nature have been raised via our normal feedback channels.

This leads us to ask respectfully: have you or your child attended our sessions recently? If so, we invite you to reach out privately with your name and your child’s name so we can investigate this further and engage with your feedback meaningfully. We pride ourselves on open communication and have always resolved any issues directly with students and families through honest, constructive dialogue—not anonymous online claims.

We would appreciate an opportunity to understand your concerns more fully, should they be genuine. Otherwise, we are concerned that this review may be disingenuous or misrepresentative of the experience at LTW, particularly given our strong community rapport and the consistent praise we receive both privately and publicly.

Thank you again for your comments.

Kind regards,
LTW

Our experience at the Burnt Oak branch…

Our experience at the Burnt Oak branch of LTW under instructor Shams was very disappointing. We joined with high hopes, but over time it became clear that the focus had shifted from quality martial arts instruction to financial gain.

Overcrowded classes with little to no individual attention.

Shams rarely leads the sessions—helpers like Ali and Ahmed do all the work and are excellent.

Shams is often on his phone or walking around, not demonstrating or engaging with students.

Constant pressure to buy uniforms and equipment; some parents were even hassled for payments.

LTW is no longer affiliated with British Taekwondo (since 2023)—this was never communicated to parents. Without this affiliation, students cannot compete in UK competitions, only within LTW or in Korea. This is unfair to parents paying high fees.

On a personal note:I would like to ask Shams to stop spreading false information about me. I’ve been told by other parents that he’s been speaking negatively, which is unacceptable. My husband even tried to contact him via text, but received no response. If needed, I’m happy to meet with Shams and other parents to clear things up.

I have no other way to communicate with him, so I’m using this platform to share my experience and to warn other parents. A true Master should lead by example—demonstrating techniques, guiding students, and fostering a respectful, transparent environment. Sadly, that is not what we experienced at LTW Burnt Oak.

We have since moved our children to another Taekwondo school—where we’ve seen many former LTW students—and the difference is clear. The instruction is professional, the classes are structured, and the focus is truly on student development, target is provided and the Master even lay crush mat on the floor for the kids safety

Shams should wake up and understand that there are many better Taekwondo clubs offering far more value for money and significantly better training.
