The Professional Unification of Martial Arts (PUMA)

Chesterfield Tae Kwon-Do is part of The Professional Unification of Martial Arts (PUMA).

PUMA is an exciting association run by highly skilled professional instructors, with collectively over 100 years of teaching experience.

Our aim is to provide everything that any martial art student could ever want, including weapons, grappling, self-protection and much more.

The whole purpose of every instructor within the association is to help their students achieve their ultimate goals in life whether it be fitness, self defence, self esteem or self control, so that the art can continue to flourish in years to come. Hence the saying "you can always do better than you think!".

PUMA promises to always strive to put the interests of the student first, whether they are coloured or black belts.

PUMA Chairman

PUMA was formed on the 1st of September 2000.
