The Alchemy Health & Fitness Centre offers training in a multitude of disciplines from the Korean Martial Arts of Tang Soo Do (Karate/Taekwondo) and Haedong Kumdo (Sword Training) to Pilates and Yoga. Combination Classes including Pilates and Taebo/ Kickboxing are available at the Alchemy Health & Fitness Centre, just a few blocks from Cresta.Tang Soo Do is excellent for self defence, fitness and self discipline and is suitable for all ages from 4 - 60yrs!. Alchemy Centre's members belong to a specific discipline and train with their instructors toward their specific goals of fitness and health.

Tang Soo Do (Korean karate) classes are offered to all ages from 4-65 years old. each age group has classes structured towards the needs of that age group while still covering the Combat Tang Soo Do syllabus and preparing the students for progress through gradings and for self defense on the street. Tang Soo Do, being a Korean style, is especially renowned for its high, jumping and spinning kicks. Since Tang Soo Do is an art based on classical form rather than on competition or sports form, the repertoire of techniques is far greater than many other arts. Although it is widely acknowledged that Korean styles have lifted high kicking to an art form, many styles in which kicking is favoured have lost a significant part of their hand attack syllabus. Higher ranking belts complement their empty hand knowledge with weapons training, such as short stick, staff, sai, tonfa, knife, nunchaku, tekko and sword. In addition to the large, diverse kicking and striking arsenal, grappling and throwing techniques are also taught. Students are required to reach certain levels of proficiency in various techniques in order to grade to the next belt level. Training in the traditional and practical martial art of Tang Soo Do geared towards children and their development, both physically and mentally. The Alchemy Dojang is here due to our belief that Martial Arts can and does have a positive impact on the lives of young people. We believe that all children are uniquely talented individuals with vast, latent potential; we strive to develop them and unlock that potential. We have a great deal of extracurricular activities for our Tang Soo Do students of all ages. By showing an interest in your child’s progress, you ensure their continued success at Alchemy Dojang and in other areas of their lives. We believe strongly in the values of our program for all ages, especially for the young, who can gain lifelong benefits from our school. Always come to us with any challenges that may arise in you or your child’s quest to be their best. We highly recommend you attend class at a rate of two times per week. These classes improve the physical side by working on balance, strength, flexibility and fitness while growing the mental aspects of concentration, self discipline and confidence! It's also a chance to get to know the student before a smooth transition to the group class. At Alchemy we offer an extensive weapons program featuring a wide range of the most popular and practical Korean and Okinawan (Kobujitsu karate) weaponry. The seminar covers basic striking and sometimes grappling/disarming of the weapon, practical one-steps against an attacker and a form to remember the basic striking and one-steps. Students are awarded patches for each weapon, which they sew onto their uniforms under the combat patch. Revision of seminar work will be covered from time to time in normal classes and on training days prior to grading.
