Message from the Organizer

Taekwondo For All  – No Politics

In 2020 we’re taking it to the next level
When taking over the running of the Taekwondo program on behalf of the Arnold Classic / Sports Festival in 2017, my objective was simple, to create the most inclusive environment where all Taekwondo could come together and showcase our great martial art, in all its variations, to the public. All ranks, all ages, all styles – no politics.

In 2019 we enjoyed record numbers across all styles, many travelling far and wide.

In 2020, we embark on our most ambitious mission yet – the first ever Arnold Classic Taekwondo World Championships.

The only World Championships not only open to all Taekwondo practitioners, but also with events that cater for the various styles.

Of course, we can’t reach our goals without your support, so come along and be part of something very unique and special in Melbourne, Australia from 20th – 22nd March, 2020

2019 Event Report

The 2019 Arnold Classic Taekwondo Championships, or affectionately known as the Arnolds, was a huge success. The event was held as part of the Arnolds Sports Festival Australia in Melbourne on March 16th.

With over 200 participants, we were not only the largest martial arts event of the festival, but also the largest sport.

Congratulations to event organizer, Master Michael Muleta, on once again co-ordinating a large and diverse group of people, from across multiple organizations, to work co-operatively to pull off a great event.

Participants came from far and wide, with ITF, WT and independent schools travelling from across Australia and New Zealand to take part.
