The Goulbourn TaeKwonDo club has been in operation for almost 30 years. Master Stephen Yeoh has been leading this group for the past 22 years. Originally started with the assistance of the Township of Goulbourn - it is currently available through the assistance of the City of Ottawa's recreation program. This means that the student's fees are subsidisded and thus offers a very reasonable cost to the martial art student.
From White Belt all the way to Back Belt (1st Dan) and then through all the levels of of Black 1 - 9, Master Yeoh and his assitant instructors proide the student with various levels of instruction. To date, Master Yeoh has trained over 200 black belts - many of those were taught through the Goulbourn progam!
In Goullbourn township (now part of the City of Ottawa), Master Yeoh has been running the program through the township and now the City of Ottawa's Recreation Program for the past 22 years. The Goulbourn program runs two sessions each year with a Fall/Winter and Winter/Spring time table. This program hosts youth, teen and adult levels and in particular full family participation.
Associate Master Instructors also add unique experiences into Master Yeoh's programs. With a collective varied background of Wing Chung Hipcado, Kung Fu, Judo, KickBoxing, JuJitsu, etc the student can experience many instructors over a normal term. This gives the student a vast amount of expeience to draw upon from real world experiences of these various Martial Art instructors. It also contributes to a well rounded and interesting program for all ages levels and interests.
