Martial arts partner/school

Hi!
I' ve been doining traditional taekwondo (without contact) for almost ten years, then I made a break for the last two years. now I want to start again. I am looking for a good taekwondo school in budapest, an english speaking trainer would be helpfull. I am also thingin about kung fu. does anybody have some tipps for me? Or is anybody interested in training on margit sziget in the evenings? as a pair it is always much more fun than alone!

I am looking forward to your responses!

Hi and welcome on board Barbara!

Please note that you may also post an advert in Budapest classifieds under community> Hobbies, Interests, Sport Partners.
It might help ;)

Indeed. Thank you very much! :)

I think this comes up every now and then and deserves general discussion:

Many instructors do speak English, but it might be disrupting the flow of an all-Hungarian class to have to explain everything twice.

I've never heard of any all-English martial arts classes. If anyone does, do drop a line here.

Taekwondo exists here, but not as popular as the many branches of Karate (from the zero-contact Wado-Ryu to the brutal Kiokoshinkay), the usually mixed-style kung-fu (with the possible exception of the many pure Wing Tsun schools). There's also Aikido, Jiu-Jitsu, Krav Maga, Judo (called cselgancs, "trick-trip") etc. And Tai Chi... (I'd so love to do that again :-( )


We could organize an expat-blog Margitsziget workout while the weather is still nice!

Hi,

I'm starting all English martial arts classes on Margaret Island.  See Aikidokenilynch.wordpress

Hello Keni.

You may post your advert in the Budapest classes classifieds. It might help.

Thanks.
