What is Taekwon-Do?

Taekwon-Do is an ancient Korean form of self-defense and is one of the quickest ways to get in shape. "Tae" stands for jumping or flying, to kick or smash with the foot. "Kwon" denotes the fist--chiefly to punch or destroy with the hand or fist. "Do" means an art or way--the right way built and paved by the saints and sages in the past. 

Taekwon-Do offers training in mental discipline and is excellent for building self-confidence, as well as improving concentration. Taekwon-Do emphasizes respect, discipline, and responsibility. 

Taekwon-Do is an activity for the whole family, regardless of age or gender, that is a terrific source of fun, togetherness, and family spirit, while you develop flexibility, muscle tone, and lose weight.
