What is Tae Kwon Do?
The traditional spelling is Tae Kwon-do however across the world it is also known as Tae Kwon Do or Taekwondo. The name Tae Kwon Do translates to ‘The Art of the Foot & Hand’. It is a Korean Martial Art which although having roots in the ancient Orient, was developed to its present form in the middle of the 20th century.
Our training follows the five tenets of Tae Kwon Do:
禮儀
Courtesy
Respecting others, having manners as well as maintaining the appropriate etiquette at all times, both within and outside the dojang.
廉恥
Integrity
Determining what is right or wrong and having the conscience to feel guilt if one has done wrong and to stand up for what is right.
忍耐
Perseverance
Trying time and time again until achieving a result which is adequate towards what one was trying to achieve.
克己
Self-control
Having control over one's acts, thoughts and actions.
百折不屈
Indomitable spirit
Having the courage to stand up for what you believe in, no matter what odds you are up against, and to always give 100% effort in whatever you do.
“A true Grandmaster is a person who starts the arts at a very young age and continues it until their body will no longer allow it. Then they still contribute mentally to the art.”
