Alis Dojang 1600

We had quite the weekend down in London, with over 800 athletes taking part in two days of action at Ali’s Dojang Open in the University of East London.

The event saw over competitors travel from across the country take to the mats, with Saturday playing host to the Poomsae competition, while Kyorugi took centre stage on Sunday.

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who made the day such a success, these events are part of what makes the British Taekwondo community so special.

Our photography partner RISE Portraits were on hand to capture the action in Urmston, and you can see even more of their stunning snaps on their event gallery below.

With over 30 club events scheduled throughout the year, 2026 promises to be a huge 12 months for British Taekwondo, with even more chances for you to get involved and compete on the highest stage. Click here to see the 2026 Event Calendar
