What is Taekwondo?
Taekwondo is one of the most systematic and scientific Korean martial arts, that teaches more than physical fighting skills. It is a discipline that shows ways of enhancing our spirit and life through training our body and mind. Today, it has become a global sport that has gained an international reputation and stands among the official games in the Olympics.
Let’s take a closer look at the meaning of the word “Tae” “Kwon” “Do.” It is composed of three parts as shown in the English spelling, though it is one word in Korean. “Tae” means “foot,” “leg,” or “to step on”; “Kwon” means “fist,” or “fight”; and “Do” means the “way” or “discipline.” If we put these three parts together, we can see two important concepts behind “Tae Kwon Do”.
Our Program.
Our program focuses on discipline and values formation. The most important part is the practice of Martial Art for self-defense in real situations. We also practice the sports part to motivate students to challenge themselves and obtain the benefits of sports.
