As Instructor of Budo South MA I would like to announce that Myles McHugh has made the decision to open his own taekwondo club, Celtic Ara Toa, based around the CBD in Tauranga. 

Myles has trained and coached with Budo South for 18 months, having previously been part of OTTC. Always active at Budo South MA, he has been a driving force for athletes, helping attain maximum levels of effort.

I wish him well on the next stage of his martial arts journey, and look forward to greeting him as an Instructor at the North Island Championships (2nd August in Tauranga).

That is the ideals of “I Love TKD”, and it was shown from our youngest members. The result is of secondary consequence to the manner of your conduct. I am proud to be the Instructor of Budo South and its members. ... See MoreSee Less
