A new taekwondo headquarters has opened its doors in Hastings.
Run by Ben Evans, the new Taekwon-Do HQ, on Kings St offers classes and workshops in the martial art to all ages and abilities.
The grand opening, which featured a taekwondo demonstration from a range of participants, was attended by
close to 100 people.
Evans, a fifth-dan black belt, said with over two months away from the training facility, he'd worried there may have been some rusty performances – but he was pleasantly surprised.
"The day went so quickly, but it was unbelievable. A successful day all round," he said.
