Taekwon-Do is the Korean martial art system designed for the purpose of self-defence. Its disciplines of technique and mental training are the basis for building respect, confidence and resolve.

Translated...

"Tae" means to smash with the foot.
"Kwon" means to punch or destroy with the hand or fist.
"Do" means an art, or “the way”.

By training regularly, students progress through a grading system that will also maintain fitness and improve flexibility.

Even if Taekwon-Do is practiced for exercise alone, the enjoyment justifies the time spent learning.

If you exercise in a gym, you choose your own pace and level. In a similar way, Taekwon-Do can be suitable for the mature and young, male or female.
