Ever thought about learning Taekwondo but figured you needed to join a fancy gym, find a local club, or wait until you “got fit first”? Yeah, I hear that a lot.
Truth is, you can start learning Taekwondo from home — even if you’re a complete beginner. Even if you’ve never kicked anything harder than your duvet.
I’m Ian Hollinsworth, lifelong martial artist, coach, and founder of Premier Dojang. I’ve taught everyone from six-year-olds to sixty-somethings how to build confidence, coordination, and core strength with traditional ITF Taekwondo. And guess what? It doesn’t have to start in a sweaty hall.
Let me show you how it can start right now — in your living room.
Get Started Learning Teakwondo at Home
You don’t need fancy gear or a gym membership to begin. All you need is:
- A small space to move in (yes, even a spare bit of floor in your lounge)
- Comfy clothes
- A willingness to have a go (even if you feel a bit silly)
- A guide that actually knows what they’re doing (hint: that’s me)
How It Works
I’ve created a 3-part beginner-friendly course you can follow at your own pace. It’s hosted on Thinkific and it covers:
- The Basics – learn your stances, simple blocks, and a few punches. It’s all about building confidence.
- Basic Techniques – yep, you’ll start blocking and punching. Safely. In balance. In control.
- Your First Pattern – this is where you put it all together, like a moving meditation with purpose.
This course is designed for real beginners. You don’t need any prior martial arts experience, and I don’t bark like a drill sergeant.

Why Train Taekwondo from Home?
Let’s be honest. Life gets in the way. Clubs aren’t always nearby. Gyms can be intimidating. Schedules are tight.
Training at home means:
- You set the pace
- You don’t have to impress anyone
- You can rewind and repeat as often as you like
- You’re building discipline, strength, and focus on your terms
Plus, you’ll get a little fitter, a little stronger, and a lot more confident with every session.
What If You’re Nervous or Unfit?
Don’t worry. Everyone starts somewhere.
Taekwondo is about progress, not perfection. Every black belt once stood exactly where you are now: unsure, stiff, and probably falling over in their first front stance.
You’re not behind. You’re just getting started.
And with a guided course like mine, you won’t feel lost or overwhelmed. You’ll feel supported. Like someone’s got your back (because I do).

Look, if you’ve read this far, there’s a part of you that’s ready.
You don’t need to be flexible. You don’t need to be tough. You just need to say yes and press play.
