Eastern Suburbs Taekwondo was established
in 1993. Classes are operated by Master Lindsay Osborne and Assistant Instructor
Maria De Rota(4th Dan)
Member of The World Taekwondo Federation, Chung Do Kwan, Taekwondo Australia & Taekwondo Australia NSW. Whilst studying and employing the latest sparring drills and science, our emphasis is not on the "Olympic" style of sport Taekwondo. Students are trained in the deeper aspects of Taekwondo philosophy and practice. They develop a firm grounding through a thorough knowledge and understanding of Taekwondo Basics, Poomsae (patterns) and Self Defense. Classes are structured to accomodate all ranks safely and are conducted in a mutually friendly atmosphere. No contact sparring is undertaken at class level. Sparring is treated as a separate subject and is taught in an informative and well supervised seminar fashion. The BJTKD sparring squad is open to all students from the rank of Blue Belt up and trains in specific sparring only sessions. The gender breakdown at the school is about 50% Male & Female. Our members include Bankers, Lawyers, Commercial Air Pilots, Police and Military personnel, Doctors, Nurses, University Students and people from all walks of life. Head Instructor Lindsay Osborne was privately trained
by Grandmaster LEE Chong Won (2x National Champion of Korea). He has dedicated
over 25 years to Taekwondo. As a competitor he was undefeated at all belt
levels in NSW. He was Australian Black Belt Middleweight Runner Up (1986)
and won the necessary bouts to win a "round robin" Australian Championship
in 1987. He is an International Referee and has spent many years on State
and National Committees.
