Women and children comprise a larger part than grown men in most individual clubs. Tae Kwon Do is for everyone from age 6 years old and up.

Tae kwon do is the name of the martial art form which has been independently developed over about 20 centuries in Korea. The main feature of Tae kwon do is that it is a free-fighting combat sport using bare hands and feet to repel an opponent.

Tae kwon do no more the sport of an eastern small country, Korea, has become one of the world's most prominent sports participated in by some 40 million people in more than 142 countries. The Tae kwon do World Championships and Tae kwon do Asian Championships have been held ten times to date. Tae kwon do was a demonstration sport of the 1988 Olympics held in Seoul, Korea and the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, Spain. In the end, in 1994, the International Olympic Committee admitted the Tae kwon do as an official event of the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, Australia. As a result, Tae kwon do is poised to take another leap in its advance towards new dimensions.

All of its activities are based on defensive spirit since Tae kwon do was developed as a defense against enemy attacks. In old days people living simple lives lacked physical fitness and their bodies became bent in their old age. Tae kwon do also served to improve health, physical fitness and poise of the people practicing it.

Our belief is that Tae Kwon Do trained people are self-confident, not only in physical aspects but also in their mental discipline. Because they have developed superior techniques for personal defense, their entire body is a weapon and they are easily able to attack and beat off an aggressor with hands, fists, elbows, knees, feet or any combination thereof.

Tae kwon do is referred to as a "martial art" or "martial way." However, in today's world it has been developed into a "martial sport" with a global following. Tae kwon do is a set of self-defense techniques using the bare hands and feet, as such it is a fighting art. However, the main objective of training is not simply to learn how to fight and maintain one's balance. Tae kwon do training focuses on learning hand and feet techniques, bringing the mind and spirit into harmony, and improving one's physical condition.

Tae kwon doists do what they do for their mental and physical well being.
