# Kensington Taekwon-Do Impact
Kensington Taekwon-Do Impact is an ITF-recognised Taekwon-Do school located in London, operating as an authentic martial arts centre under the leadership of Chief Instructor Grand Master Donato Nardizzi, a 9th Degree black belt and one of fewer than 35 Grand Masters worldwide.
The academy serves families and children aged 3 and upwards, offering specialised instruction in traditional Taekwon-Do combined with practical life skills training. Their primary clientele includes parents seeking to develop their children's confidence, self-defence capabilities, and awareness of personal safety through a comprehensive bully-proofing programme.
What distinctly sets this academy apart is the exceptional pedigree of its instruction. Grand Master Nardizzi trained directly under General Choi Hong Hi, the founder of Taekwon-Do, and brings over 40 years of practice experience. The academy's Kids Programme, which the Chief Instructor created, is now the official ITF Kids Development programme taught globally—a remarkable credential. The curriculum extends beyond martial arts techniques to encompass fire safety, stranger danger awareness, bullying recognition, and household hazard education, with students earning achievement badges upon completion.
The facility itself demonstrates professional commitment, featuring over 300 square metres of tatami-matted training space accommodating up to 30 students per class, alongside bags, training dummies, kickshields, and power machines. Comprehensive amenities include changing facilities, lockers, and disabled accessibility. The mats receive regular anti-bacterial treatment, maintaining hygiene standards essential for barefoot training.
