Champion. Inspiration. Friend of Tigers.

World Champion Matty Moore is coming back to Daventry for a festive weekend of celebrations, awards and Tae Kwon-Do.

Friday 4 December 2026 · Christmas party and annual awards
Saturday 5 December 2026 · Matty Moore masterclass

Ability Not Disability

Matty started Tae Kwon-Do in 2010. He has Asperger’s Syndrome (autistic) and has often found communication and comprehension difficult. Over the years, Tae Kwon-Do has changed his physical appearance, helped him achieve lifelong goals and improved his confidence communicating in public.

Remember this? Let’s do it again.

After the brilliant 2025 visit, Matty is returning for another Christmas event with the Tigers. Join us for a party, our annual awards and a special masterclass.
