With the drive for healthy lifestyles and the battle against Obesity Jakeun Bal have committed themselves to bring the sport of Taekwondo to East Lancashire’s schools, either in or out of normal class times. We would not be able to do this without the support of Local companies and national grants.

This Grant funding has helped us run projects on community integration, offer after school clubs and summer schools for children through Burnley and Pendle.

Since 2002 Jakeun Bal Taekwondo has been working closely with Junior schools to develop a program that will satisfy the requirements of the national curriculum at Key Stage two. This curriculum develops the child's balance, coordination and sequencing that can be used is all sports.

In 2004 Jakeun Bal Taekwondo started delivering Taekwondo to Secondary School children as a dinner time or after school work-out program. After getting to grips with the basic kicks the class then changes into an aerobic based class.

It is hoped that from the martial art of Taekwondo the children will gain in self control and self esteem.

We also offer free Taekwondo taster classes to any children and youth organisations in East Lancashire, so do get in touch.
