Institute of Modern Tae Kwon Do
Self defence, confidence, fitness.
Perfect for students of all ages.
We are a modern and welcoming Tae Kwon Do organisation, founded in 1996, with a
history dating back over 50 years and we have been empowering our students
across Queensland with skills that extend far beyond the training environment. Our
programs are built around self-defence, sparring, fitness, confidence and respect –
developing not just a physical ability, but a positive mindset that carries into everyday
life. Whether you’re a parent looking for a structured, values-driven activity for your
child, or an adult ready to invest in yourself, you’ll find a community here that
genuinely supports you every step of the way.
About Us
Modern Tae Kwon Do, Modern Training
Tae Kwon Do is a year round sport with no seasons or sign in days. The easiest way to get started is to speak to your local instructor and let them know of your interest in starting Tae Kwon Do. When you come along to your first class, wear comfortable clothes that you can move around freely in. Your first lesson is free and you are under no obligation to join.
If you decide that Tae Kwon Do is right for you or your family, your instructor will give you the rest of the basic information at the end of the lesson. Buying a uniform is not something you have to do straight away, but it will be required before your first grading. Any other equipment you will eventually require can be purchased when needed.

Traditional Tae Kwon
Do. Modern Training.
The Institute of Modern Tae Kwon Do blends traditional Tae Kwon Do techniques with the practicality of western boxing, creating a style that is both dynamic and effective. Built on years of refinement, the curriculum focuses on real-world self-defence, ensuring every technique has purpose and application. Strong emphasis is placed on clean technique, control, and continuous improvement.
Fitness is a core part of training, developing strength, endurance, and resilience in every student. Above all, the Institute promotes a culture of respect, discipline, and personal growth, supporting students to become more confident and capable both on and off the training floor.
Age does not matter, we have students ranging from 6 through into their 60’s. Suitable for both male and females, we welcome everyone. Come with an open mind and be willing to take instruction is all we ask for your first lessons, these first lessons are also free to try so don’t sit back, join in and start tomorrow.

Keep up the great work Banyo
The founding philosophy was and remains deliberate and distinctive:
Instructors focus on student development, not commercial gain.
The school maintains traditional Tae Kwon Do values while remaining open to modern training methods.
Curriculum updates are encouraged where they enhance effectiveness without compromising core principles. While modern in application, the school deliberately retains traditional etiquette, ranking structures, and character development as central pillars of training.
Give your kids some additional tools in their tool box to help them cope with the ever evolving and challenging world they are experiencing. You have nothing to lose, yet they have the potential to gain so much. 👍
I cannot thank them enough.
Our 4th dan instructor Jason is very passionate about the tae kwon do and shares his skills and 30 years experience in professional and friendly manner. Apart from training twice a week we also meet members from other IMT clubs for inter-clubs tournaments and trainings during the year.
Family friendly, can only recommend to give it a go ! See you there 🙂
