The Waterside area is a stretch of land sandwiched between the New Forest in the west and Southampton Water in the east. It encompasses Totton to its northern boundary and Lepe/Exbury/Langley to its southern boundary and has a strong identity with a number of sporting clubs and associations bearing the name ‘Waterside’. The club opened in 1992 on a Wednesday evening at Hardley School, Holbury and was (and still is run) by Master Colin Graves. The Waterside Taekwondo Club is a full member of British Taekwondo and throughout its history has won many awards (best Club at Chung Do Kwan Southern Championships, 1997, 1998 & 1999). The Club promotes a family training atmosphere and moved to the New Forest Academy on Sunday evenings soon after, with additional sessions on a Tuesday and Saturday.
