What is Taekwondo?

Taekwondo is an ancient form of Korean Martial Art characterized by its fast, high, and spinning kicks. It is often translated as 'the way of hand and foot, ' emphasizing the combination of kicking and punching techniques. Our art is not just about physical movements but also focuses on mental discipline, emotional equanimity, and self-defense skills.

Objectives of Taekwondo

Our objectives are to develop an appreciation for Taekwondo as an art and a sport, achieve physical fitness through positive participation, improve mental discipline and emotional equanimity, learn self-defense skills, and develop a sense of responsibility for oneself and others.

Tenets of TaeKwonDo

Our training is based on five tenets: Courtesy (YEH), Integrity (YOHM-CHEH), Perseverance (IN-NEH), Self Control (GUK-GI), and Indomitable Spirit (Pak-Jul -Bool -Kool). These tenets guide our students to maintain a positive and respectful attitude, strive for excellence, and cultivate a strong and resilient spirit.

Student Creed

Our student creed emphasizes the importance of developing oneself in a positive manner, developing self-discipline, avoiding anything that might reduce mental health and physical growth, using class learning constructively and defensively, and never being abusive or offensive. This creed serves as a guiding principle for our students as they navigate their journey in Taekwondo.

Spiritual Significance

Taekwondo is not just a physical activity but also a spiritual practice. It transforms one's character into a strong and resilient spirit, enabling individuals to develop leadership skills and maintain composure and security in all aspects of life. Our mission is to serve the community by improving the quality of life for all who embrace our "SPIRIT OF LOVE."
