Our Full Time Centre at Burpengary has nearly 100 members.
Daenamoo Taekwondo was established officially on 14/01/2002 in Narangba, Queensland. After many years of loyal teaching for Master Tiger Lee, I gained his approval and blessing to set up my own school. We have now established ourselves in the Taekwondo Community as Daenamoo Taekwondo. I also feel sure that this change has been well received in the Narangba and Burpengary Community as well.
Daenamoo is the Korean word for
bamboo. Bamboo is strong, yet flexible, and that is our club motto
- Strong yet Flexible in mind and body.
Our badge has at it's centre the Korean script for Daenamoo Taekwondo, acknowledging the Korean heritage of our art.We have drawn inspiration
for our new vibrant club colours of green, blue and gold from the following sources.
Gold bamboo for strength and structure, the Korean script is supported and sheltered by strong golden bamboo.
It is flanked by green, growing bamboo which is flexible and adapts to change and growth.
The Script and bamboo is framed in royal blue representing the school of Chung Do Kwan (Blue Wave) where our style of taekwondo originated, the four corners braced by the qualities of honesty, humility, integrity and loyalty.
Below is the Chung Do Kwan Oath which has been around for more than 50 years.
We, as members, train our bodies and spirits according to the strict code.
We, as members, are united in mutual friendship.
We, as members, will comply with regulations and obey Instructors.

TESTIMONIAL
Hi my name is Sheldon. I have my two kids aged 6 (boy) and 9 (girl) that have recently started with Daenamoo Taekwondo. After 6 short weeks I came to believe its one of the best sporting, discipline activities my kids have been enrolled in. We are and still do swimming, ARL, music and girl guides however my wife and I have found the kids have responded to Daenamoo Taekwondo the best. Daenamoo Taekwondo has offered my kids the strength, fitness and participation in a sport like all the others however it has offered more in self discipline, fun and a sense of belonging then the others clubs have to offer. Daenamoo Taekwondo is a very friendly disciplined sport which has provided both my kids with a strong sense of individual personal achievement in such a short time. My 9 year old daughter loves going two nights a week and feels great with herself on the way home and my 6 year old son likes it better than ARL. This is an excellent way to assist parents along the busy and complex path of raising children."
Kind regards Sheldon Marles (Albany Hills club)
