I am please to be able to formally announce the appointment of Eva Neale, 2nd degree black belt, as the newest member of the Assistant Instructor team at WLTKD.
Eva will join the existing excellent team line up as part of the junior member development team working along side established and very experienced instructors Molly and Jack Rowe to strengthen this part of the club.
Eva works as a Senior Town Planner for the County Council and is also a mother of 2 young boys. This appointment will bring further strength and depth to this part of the club and the instructor team as a whole.

To this end I am pleased and excited to announce that we are expanding our instructor team at Warwick-TKD and have appointed Mr John Hoult and Mrs Rachel Hoult as Assistant Instructors.
