"Pain is the best instructor, but no one wants to go to his class."

-- Choi, Hong Hi

 

History of Taekwondo

Taekwondo is a Korean martial art which focuses on kicking techniques and self-defense. The name Taekwondo is derived from the Korean word "Tae" meaning foot, "Kwon" meaning fist and "Do" meaning way of. So, literally Taekwondo means "the way of the foot and fist". The name Taekwondo has only been used since 1955 although the arts' roots began 2,300 years ago in Korea.
