Taekwondo is an ancient Korean martial art. It is known for it's powerful kicks, and quick striking combinations. However, it is more than just physical skills like kicks, punches, and blocks. Taekwondo is a method of personal development that enhances mental and physical strength, and a lifestyle that helps students build confidence and discipline.

Today Taekwondo is one of the most practiced martial arts in the world. People of ages ranging from 2 to 90 years old practice Taekwondo, and in 2000 it became an official Olympic Sport.
