GREAT FUN, ULTIMATE IN FITNESS & SELF DEFENCE

Rhee Tae Kwon-Do was Australia's first and is the largest & longest running school in the country.

About Rhee Taekwondo Glass House

Rhee Tae Kwon-Do is regarded as one of the most comprehensive, dynamic and effective arts of self-defense in this day and age. As a student you will not only learn effective self-defense, but it can also enhance every aspect of your mental and physical well-being.

Based on an ancient fighting style and founded in Australia in 1970, Rhee Tae Kwon-Do has been perfected over the past 50 Years by World Master Chong Chul Rhee to meet the needs of today. Suitable for all ages, and all fitness levels. It’s never too late to give it a try.

Unlimited Fee Trial

Rhee Tae Kwon-Do has been training students in the art of traditional Tae Kwon-Do since 1970. Unlike many more recent and diluted forms of Tae Kwon-Do taught throughout Australia, as a traditional style, discipline and respect is a critical foundation. We strive to impart respect of self as well as respect of others. With focus and determination Rhee Tae Kwon-Do students will improve their experiences and abilities by forging a sound mind and a sound body.

Frequently Asked Questions

We don’t have a maximum age limit though we do prefer children be at least 5 years old as we generally feel that by that age they are old enough to follow and understand most basic instructions. Ask the branch instructor if you’re unsure about your child’s suitability.

No. While it’s a good idea to know you’re coming you can just turn up at your local class. You can send an inquiry to a branch instructor if you have any questions CONTACT US PAGE. Our instructor is there at least 15 minutes before class begins so head along early if you want to ask any question in person.

For insurance purposes, yes. However you should not be discouraged by this, training in Rhee Tae Kwon-Do is very safe, and all exercises take place in a controlled environment under the watchful eyes of the instructors and leaders.

Rhee Tae Kwon-Do offers a No Obligation and Unlimited FREE Trial at all of our trining centres which allows you or your child to give Rhee Tae Kwon-Do a go for as long as needed before deciding if we’re right before joining. We also offer discounts for multiple family members. Training centres run different specials & promotions at different times of the year so get in touch with your instructor and they will discuss fees with you in the class or you can contact them directly to see what the fees for your nearest training centre are. As a member you’re able to train at any of our Training Centres at any time for a single monthly training fee. With more than 50 centres across Brisbane, and the opportunity to train 6 days a week, that’s great value. All promotions leading up to Black Belt are included in your monthly fee.

Yes, as a member of Rhee Tae Kwon-Do all members train in full uniform. When you join a new uniform and white belt will be organised and provided. Replacement uniforms can be purchased through the training centre if required

Yes we do. There are many different self defence classes out there though some are better than others. A lot of classes teach self defence against an equally sized opponent, or make assumptions such as being pinned down on the ground. There are even classes that specialise in defence against weapons, something that is less common here in Australia.

At Rhee Tae Kwon-Do we equip students with the knowledge and ability to defend themselves in a range of real-world situations and with practical and commonsense methods, whether that be against someone larger, someone stronger or older. We will also look at ways to defend against someone who might be armed or even multiple attackers. Most importantly we teach students how to avoid risky situations to begin with, and if they can’t, how to assess a situation and work out the best way to protect themselves as well as members of their families.

Yes. Rhee Tae Kwon-Do Instructors are certified and officially appointed by the organisation and World Master Chong Chul Rhee. Our Professional Instructors are dedicated, skilled martial artists, specially selected with great consideration and are carefully trained to bring out the best in their students. Each Rhee Tae Kwon-Do Instructor demonstrates great care, understanding, consideration and fortitude to support student development in pursuit of the Art. Rhee Tae Kwon-Do Instructors hold working with children accreditation and police clearance (Blue Card holders).

Some martial art schools offer a free first lesson, or even your first week at no cost. At Rhee Tae Kwon-Do we offer an unlimited free trial which simply means you’re welcome to give us a try for as long as you think you need before deciding if Rhee Tae Kwon-Do is right for you or right for your children.

We normally have students join after their first or second lesson, but there’s no rush to make you decide. Once you’ve made up your mind simply let the instructor know and they’ll guide you through the joining process.
