Three-time taekwondo world champion Clint Diekema teaches all classes at Diekema Taekwondo, keeping the attendance size small to encourage students' personal growth. Kickboxing lessons, grouped by skill level, impart proper footwork and jabbing techniques for fists and feet, and QuickKick-Fit, classes progressively target different muscle groups with a 45-minute circuit of kickboxing moves, kettlebell swings, and plyometrics. Otherwise, taekwondo sessions help pupils hone their focus and martial-arts manoeuvres as they strike padded targets. Click here for a class schedule.
Diekema Taekwondo
Three-time tae kwon do world champion and current captain of Team Canada Clint Diekema has taught self-defence and fitness classes at Diekema Taekwondo for more than 14 years. The seasoned instructor categorizes each of his tae kwon do classes by age and belt to ensure that students train alongside others of the same skill level and Power Ranger preference. The 3,000-square-foot training centre's schedule also carves out time for women-only sessions. During classes, students run through a set of warm-up exercises before they can strap on gloves and practice their skills by striking padded shields with their hands and feet.
