Taekwondo is for Everybody!
What is Taekwondo? Taekwondo is a Korean martial art that is over 2000 years old. Taekwondo is often translated as 'the art of kicking and punching'

Tae = Kick
Kwon = Punch
Do = The way of life

The physical training of taekwondo continues to improve over the years. However, the "Do" or way of life as taught in taekwondo has remained the same over the centuries.

Tenets of Taekwondo
Taekwondo emphasizes the following five tenets:

  • Courtesy
  • Integrity
  • Perseverance
  • Self Control
  • Indomitable Spirit

It is the combination of these five tenets and the physical training of taekwondo that helps to build strong character and self discipline
