Wolves Christmas Club Gala Day

Wolves Taekwondo Year

Wolves Taekwondo Club offers classes 43 weeks of the year. Our Taekwondo year is divided into four terms. The Taekwondo term fee for one class per week (43 classes) is $144 per student. The term fee of $126 is then broken down to a per month fee of $48.

This method of charging a monthly fee instead of a term fee every three months was introduced to reduce large sums of money being debited from the students account every three months (term duration). Therefore, for the newer students, this will answer the question of do we still pay during school holidays.

All cancellations must be in writing and sent via email or postal  to Wolves Taekwondo, PO Box 513, Springwood NSW 2777. Email: wolvestkd@optusnet.com.au
 
No phone cancellations will be accepted.

Drew’s New Single Now Available!

/

The album’s first single Sticks Paper Bamboo and Stone is NOW AVAILABLE on iTunes!

The song tells the story of a man who yearns to be with the woman he loves as much as he aspires to see the famous annual cherry blossom fall in Osaka. 

Drew (Andrew) Johnston now he reveals his creative, musical and lyrical talents in Tea House, his third album. Before going into the recording studio Drew travelled to Japan, visiting Buddhist and Shinto shrines and drawing inspiration from the experience of ‘sitting still’ in tea houses, which he describes as “beautiful little establishments”. The upbeat, acoustic guitar-driven folk/rock album, produced with award-winning producer, song writer and musician Rod McCormack, features mostly feel-good story lines with acoustic guitar, mandolin, papoose and banjo paramount.

Drew would love you to share his musical journey – and his inspiration – by going online and purchasing a copy of Sticks Paper Bamboo and Stone from iTunes between 10am and 1pm TODAY!!
