Taekwon-do to put it simply, is a version of unarmed combat designed for the purpose of self-defense.

However, it is much more than just that. It is the scientific use of the body in the method of self-defense; a body that has gained the ultimate use of its facilities through intensive physical and mental training.

Taekwon-do enables the weak to posses a fine weapon, together with a confidence to defend him/herself successfully against an aggressor. If wrongfully applied, taekwon-do can have lethal consequences; therefore mental training must always be stressed to prevent the student from misusing it.

There are many different elements to taekwon-do training. Some of these include patterns, self-defense, pad and target kicking, board breaking and sparring. Taekwon-do is also an excellent activity for cardiovascular workouts and strength training.

Taekwon-do continues to be one of the fastest growing martial arts today with taekwon-do schools operating in almost every country in the world.
