Transparency, Safety, and Professional Standards for our Community.
Transparency and safety are the foundations of World Taekwondo. Below you will find our governing standards, strictly designed to protect our members and their families.
Important Notice: Under the Fair Trading Act 1987, World Taekwondo excludes liability for personal injury to the maximum extent permitted by law. By joining, members acknowledge the inherent nature of martial arts and assume the risk of accidents.
Assumption of Risk: I understand that Taekwondo and Hapkido involve physical activity with inherent risks of injury. I choose to participate (or, if applicable, I consent to my child’s participation) and accept these risks to the extent permitted by law.
Release and Indemnity: To the maximum extent permitted by the Fair Trading Act 1987 (SA) and other applicable laws, I release World Taekwondo Pty Ltd, its officers, employees, volunteers, and instructors from liability for personal injury arising from my participation, except to the extent caused by their negligent acts or omissions. I agree to indemnify the Academy for loss reasonably incurred due to my breach of this agreement or my unlawful or reckless conduct.
Medical Fitness & Emergencies: I confirm I am medically fit to participate and will disclose relevant medical conditions. In an emergency, I authorise staff to seek medical care. I accept responsibility for associated costs.
Minors: If the participant is under 18, I confirm I am the parent/legal guardian and provide informed consent to participation on the terms above.
Fees & Payment: Membership fee: $80/year. Program fees as published on our fees page. Fees are payable at the start of each month/term (as applicable). Late or failed payments may require administrative follow‑up; access to classes may be paused until resolved.
Cancellations & Refunds: You may cancel by written notice to info@worldtaekwondo.com.au. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period unless otherwise agreed. Refunds are generally not provided for partial periods already commenced, except as required by law.
Media Consent: You may be photographed or filmed during classes and events. We may use images for Academy websites, social media, and promotional materials. You can withdraw consent at any time by emailing info@worldtaekwondo.com.au; withdrawal applies prospectively.
Policies: Participation is subject to our Code of Conduct, Child Safety measures, and other policies on this page.
Our instructors and volunteers adhere to strict safety codes:
How to Report a Concern: You can raise concerns confidentially with our Member Protection Officer or by emailing info@worldtaekwondo.com.au
We acknowledge within 3 business days and act promptly, including referral to authorities where required. In emergencies or if a child is at immediate risk, contact the Child Abuse Report Line on 13 14 78.
