International Taekwon‑Do Federation

It is with sadness that the UK Taekwon‑Do Association has learnt of the recent passing of one of our early instructors, Mr Bert Callender.

Mr Callender was a true gentleman with impeccable TaeKwon‑Do technical ability.

During the late 60s and early 70s, he instructed a large number of senior instructors, Masters, and Grand Masters in Wales.

He was also one of only two UKTA competitors at the first ITF world championships in Montreal, Canada in 1974.

We offer our sincere condolences to Mr Callender’s family.

Grand Master John Williamson

President of the UK Taekwon‑Do Association
