WHAT WE OFFER
Find the Right
Programme for You.
Three programmes, one place. Whether you want to learn how to improve your kicks, feel safer walking home at night, or get seriously fit - there is a class here for you. No experience needed. All ages and fitness levels welcome.
PROGRAMME
Taekwondo
(Old-School)
This is Taekwondo the way it was meant to be taught - kicks, footwork, discipline, and real technique. Not sport Taekwondo for points, but the kind that actually makes you fast, flexible, and sharp. Kids from age 5, complete beginners, MMA or Muay Thai fighters wanting better kicks, women, men - everyone is welcome here.
ALL AGES & LEVELS
PROGRAMME
Ultimate Flexibility (Stretching)
This program helps reduce stiffness, improve posture, increase comfort in daily movement, and support a greater range of motion in the hips, legs, and lower body. With consistent training, students may work toward deeper stretches such as improved hip opening and full splits, while feeling lighter, looser, and more balanced.
ALL AGES & LEVELS
PROGRAMME
Private Training
(1-on-1)
All the focus is on you. Whether you want to sharpen your Taekwondo kicks, work on self-defence, or have something specific in mind - private sessions are the fastest way to get there. Popular with MMA and Muay Thai fighters wanting to add proper kicking to their game, and with beginners who want to learn correctly from the start.
ANY PROGRAMME
Free Trial on all programmes.
No joining fees, no lock-in contracts. Come and try a class - if it's not the right fit, you owe nothing.
Why Train
With Us?
WHY TIGER COMMANDOS
1
You learn from someone who has actually used it
Coach Vlad is a former Elite Special Forces Operator and an Internationall Taekwondo Champion - not someone who read about real-world situations in a book. That experience shapes how every technique is taught and why.
2
Championship technique, not theatre
8 consecutive years as undefeated National Taekwondo Champion of R. Macedonia. International Champion, Silver & Bronze medalist. That level of mastery is what gets passed on in every session.
3
Everyone is genuinely welcome
Coach Vlad has taught students from age 5 to 65+, across multiple countries, at all skill levels. There is no intimidating gym culture here - just good training in a local Gold Coast park.
4
No contracts, no fees, no pressure
Your first class is free. There are no joining fees and no lock-in contracts. Come try it and decide from there. That is how confident we are you will enjoy it.
5
Your training - your schedule
All sessions are booked in advance to suit your schedule. Depending on your level, you may train 1-on-1 with Coach Vlad or alongside one or more students of a similar level, so every student gets proper attention and faster progress.
6
Outdoor training classes
Sessions are held in the fresh air at a local Gold Coast park. No gym membership, no crowded indoor spaces, no joining fees. Just open space and good training.
MEET THE HEAD COACH
Vlatko
Chankulovski
Vlad started Taekwondo in 2007 and within his first year defeated three black belts to earn a spot on the Macedonian National Team. For the next eight years he remained undefeated as National Champion, competing internationally and collecting medals against some of the best in the world.​
​
He then joined the Macedonian Elite Special Police Force, where the skills he trained for years were applied in environments that required them for real. Now based on the Gold Coast, he coaches out of Mermaid Waters parks, bringing that same standard to every session.

Real-world experience that shapes how every technique is taught.
WHAT STUDENTS SAY
Real People,
Real Results.
!!
I came in with zero experience and honestly felt a bit nervous. Within the first session Vlad made everything feel manageable. Three months later I can kick properly and my fitness has completely changed.

TAEKWONDO - MALTA
!!
The self-defence workshop was exactly what I needed. Not just the physical techniques, Vlad teaches you how to think in those situations. I feel genuinely more aware and more confident walking around now.
Marga
SELF-DEFENCE WORKSHOP - GOLD COAST
!!
I do Muay Thai and wanted to sort out my kicks. One private session with Vlad fixed things I had been doing wrong for years. His technical knowledge is on a completely different level.
