The British Taekwon-Do Federation (BTF) is committed to ensuring the highest standards of safety and student welfare. As part of this commitment, we recently organised a comprehensive first aid training course for our instructors, delivered by First Aid Training Wales and hosted at the Taekwon-Do Wales dojang.

The course equipped BTF instructors with vital, up-to-date skills to respond effectively in a range of emergency situations, including:

• CPR and resuscitation techniques
• Managing head injuries
• Assisting unconscious casualties
• Treating common and minor injuries

Through realistic scenarios, accredited training, and practical exercises designed with martial arts in mind, our instructors are now even better prepared to safeguard their students both inside and outside the dojang.

We would like to extend our thanks to First Aid Training Wales for delivering such a valuable course, and to Taekwon-Do Wales for providing an excellent training venue. Most importantly, we thank our instructors for their ongoing dedication to the safety, well-being, and development of everyone in the BTF community.
