Trosnant house is a newly completed warehouse renovation project, situated in the heart of Pontypool centre (100 yards just up the hill from the Pontypool Leisure Centre), and it has become the home for the Welsh National Elite squad weekend training camps. As one would expect, the hall comes with all the mod-cons of today's up to date Taekwondo gyms, a hall that's fully matted with the latest sport interlocked training surface, water kick bags and more paddles than a rowing club.
Whilst the squad is not using the house, it becomes home to two clubs the "Little Dragon" run by Ms Jo Draper and the Pontypool Taekwondo club run by Master Porl Stone. The Pontypool club is small, consisting of promising juniors ranging from 8 - 14 year olds who wish to add a to their sport training with the more physically demanding, challenging, yet fun class.
