Our History
Cobourg Tae Kwon Do has proudly served the communities of Cobourg and Northumberland for nearly 40 years. First opened in the late 1980s, we are the longest-running martial arts academy in the region.
In 2003, our current Grandmaster — 7th Degree Black Belt, Grandmaster Jonathan Field — was given the opportunity to take over the academy while he was still a college student, when his instructor recognized his passion, dedication, and leadership. He accepted, and the legacy continued to grow.
Since then, Master Field has expanded the school significantly — increasing student enrollment, introducing new programs, developing a highly skilled instructional team, developing multiple world champions, and building out a world class training academy. Along the way, he also rose to the highest levels of martial arts competition, becoming a 12-time world champion.
Today, he brings that same experience, discipline, and passion to every class. His mission is to help each student achieve their own version of excellence — both on the mats and in everyday life.
What Sets Us Apart
Our team has experienced everything in the world of martial arts. Their time building themselves up from beginners to world champions allows them to understand each student’s journey and how to guide them.
Our academy has been involved in teaching Cobourg martial arts and Taekwondo since the 1980s. As the longest serving martial arts academy in Northumberland, we have been and will continue to be fully dedicated to helping the community through martial arts.
It is not only our expertise that makes us world class. Our facility has been upgraded to provide the best experience possible for students.
This isn’t just a Taekwondo or martial arts school for those looking for one way of training. We have programs for all skill levels and even those interested in Yoga and Tai Chi!
We are committed to helping every student reach their personal goals — whether they are big or small, short-term or long-term. We encourage each student to give their best effort and use martial arts as a powerful tool for growth, achievement, and confidence.
We don’t just have special events for competitive training. We have community events for gatherings for parties, gatherings, and more.
