Columbia Tae Kwon Do is a club sport. The club geared towards both experienced and novice individuals wishing to train in the sport of Tae Kwon Do. It is open to any individual with access to the Dodge Fitness Center. This means that it is open to all undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, staff, and any family members or alumni who already have access to the gym. We cannot procure access to the Fitness Center for someone wishing to join the team. Some graduate students, such as medical students, may have to pay a nominal fee to Dodge Fitness Center for access. (Individuals who do not have access to the gym cannot join or train with the Columbia Tae Kwon Do Club; it is a requirement of the gym administration, we apologize.)

Each member of the team is required to pay $80 per semester as club dues. This money helps to pay our instructors, purchase equipment for the team, and pay for our tournaments.

Columbia Tae Kwon Do is a very energetic and fun-loving club. While we strive to improve ourselves in every aspect of Tae Kwon Do, we realize also that this is a club sport, doing what we can to ensure that people are having fun in addition to learning the art of Tae Kwon Do.

If you are interested in the club, please come to one of our practices to observe (times and location are listed on the Classes site) or email an officer.

Please note: Columbia Tae Kwon Do does not offer scholarships, endorsements, or sponsorships for high school students wishing to train with the team. Furthermore, we cannot offer any financial incentives to attend Columbia and compete with the team. As a club sport, the team is entirely student-run and has no bearing at all in the admissions process.

Also, for the same reason we cannot sponsor individuals, traveling domestically or internationally, to come to Columbia to observe our training techniques. We apologize; these are restrictions placed on us by Columbia University.
