Founding and History
Achievements and Growth
Over the years, Burbage Taekwon-Do Academy has trained numerous students to Black Belt level, with many progressing to compete at International levels represented ITF England at European @ World Championships, training alongside Master Higginson VIII Degree showcasing their skills on a global stage.
Present and Future
Today, Master Higginson (VIII Degree), along with Mrs. Higginson (VI Degree) and a team of experienced instructors, continues to lead the academy. They operate from a full-time Dojang Training Centre located on Hawley Rd in Hinckley, Leicestershire, providing high-quality instruction and fostering the next generation of martial artists.

The Journey is the Reward
At Burbage Taekwon-Do Academy, we believe that “The Journey is the Reward.” Every step taken, from a student’s first lesson to achieving a Black Belt and beyond, is a testament to dedication, perseverance, and personal growth. Success in Taekwon-Do is not just about reaching the next belt but about the lessons learnt along the way – the discipline, confidence, and resilience developed through training.
Whether competing at international levels or simply striving for self-improvement, our students embrace the journey, knowing that each challenge overcome brings its own reward.
With the support of our experienced instructors and a strong community, every individual at Burbage TKD continues to grow, proving that the true reward lies not in the destination but in the journey itself.
