WHAT IS TAEKWONDO (TAE KWON DO)?

Taekwondo is a form of modern Korean martial arts. It is a mix of self-defense and combat methods with exercise and sports. Taekwondo is distinguishable by its emphasis on high, fast, and also spinning kicks. The name taekwondo has multiple interpretations. It can be transliterated into “the way of the hand and the foot”. The word taekwondo can be broken into three parts:

Tae: “To block or strike with the foot”. The word also means “jump”

K’won: “To block or strike with the hand” or fist

Do: “The way of”. The word also mean “art”

All the three words put together translates taekwondo into “The art of punching and kicking”. It also means “The art of combat without any weapons”. The word was coined by Choi Hong Hi, whom the International Taekwondo Federation recognizes as the founder and creator of the martial art form. Taekwondo is at present one of the world’s most popular modern martial techniques.

Taekwondo disciplines

The Korean martial art form of Taekwondo consists of four basic disciplines:

Patterns: These are of two kinds: Poomse’s and Tul’s. Poomses or Forms are techniques of attacking and defending movements performed against an imaginary opponent and is done in a predetermined pattern. It serves a number of purposes like helping in the refinement of balance, timing, rhythm, breath control, and coordination. Tul’s have 24 patterns in total that represents 24 hours of the day. First black belt consists of 10 patterns.

Self-defense: This is also called Hosinsul. It is regarded as one of the main taekwondo principles. It mixes a number of techniques like grappling or locks and defending against armed attackers.

Sparring: Rules differ in case of sparring in International Taekwondo Federation and the World Taekwondo Federation matches. It demonstrates technique control and practical applications of the sport.

Break test: This is also known as Kyepka. It is extremely popular in the demonstration of taekwondo. An object is broken in the demonstration. It is a better way to practice focus, precision, concentration, and power.

Taekwondo objectives

The main objectives of Taekwondo are as follows:

Create an understanding for taekwondo as an art and also as a sport

Reach physical fitness via positive participation

Improve emotional equanimity and mental discipline

Acquire self-defense skills

Create a responsible outlook for one self and also for others

Learning social skills is important for everyone. The study of martial art can help teach these skills in surprising ways.

Martial Arts

There is a longstanding and deeply rooted misconception about the martial arts that I will address at the outset. It is not our goal, nor that of any responsible teachers of martial art, to teach our students to fight. We do instruct in the ways of self defense and that does include the ability to defend oneself, but the purpose of our school is more diverse and we believe, more important than that.

There are many of life’s important lessons to be learned from studying martial arts. Most of them are rarely thought of in those terms because they are not skills that people associate with the martial arts. What they do not understand and one of the things we teach is that to be a student of martial arts, is to be a student of the art of self-knowledge. We instill in our students of all ages, the importance of respect and self-discipline. We have been helping to develop better citizens and better people for 20 years. In that time, we have received numerous Honors, Degrees and Awards as instructors in martial art training for the highest quality in martial arts.

So, what can we offer you or your children that can help to refine social skills through the study of martial art? First and foremost is respect. No student of the martial arts can progress without an understanding of this essential attribute. It can be humbling the first time that a successful middle-aged executive must ask for direction from, or defer to a boy or girl who is younger than his own children are. Martial art instructs us that knowledge comes from those who possess it regardless of age or any other consideration. We learn from those who know more than we do and respect them for their knowledge.

Martial art teaches self-esteem and self-confidence.

By learning to control our emotions and to think before we act, we become more skilled at allowing others to participate in our lives. We lose the need to prove ourselves because we learn to feel secure and comfortable with whom we are. What our students accomplish as they achieve this creates confidence in their abilities to overcome difficulties. Our martial arts students become better listeners and partners.

Martial art teaches courtesy, another essential life skill.

Higher ranking students and instructors are afforded the regard that their knowledge demands. New students and lower ranks deserve support and help. We all started at the beginning and we remember how much that courtesy meant to us in the beginning.

If you want your children to learn discipline and respect, if you want them to have the ability to defend themselves, or if achieving self-confidence is your goal; then there is no better way than martial art training.

As a martial arts instructor, I have been teaching Taekwondo for kids for many years. During that time, I have found parents bring their children to our unique Taekwondo program for a variety of reasons. Some kids are overweight and Taekwondo for Kids helps them to slim down, improve their body image and increase self-esteem. Others are bullied at school or lack confidence and find that martial arts bolsters their self-worth and helps them develop the confidence to be leaders. However, a majority of parents seem to appreciate that our Taekwondo for Kids program is a great means of teaching their children better discipline.

Studying martial arts is hard work for anyone. To improve at it requires pushing yourself to surpass previous boundaries, whether they are physical, mental or otherwise. Our Taekwondo for Kids program is an excellent means of instilling a sense of the value of this hard work in young people. Many kids come into the Taekwondo for Kids program lacking focus or direction. Many others have had disciplinary problems at home or at school. Taekwondo for Kids teaches even the most rambunctious among them to be good citizens, show respect and get along well with others.

Martial Arts is a physical discipline and to progress to the next level you must apply yourself. For students to do well in our Taekwondo for Kids program, they must apply themselves, often with a focus and determination they have not known before. Many parents observe that after some time in the Taekwondo for Kids program, their once rambunctious kids begin to carry that focus and determination over into other areas of their life like their school work.

As a black belt certified instructor with decades of teaching experience, part of my work has been to develop Martial Arts’ unique Taekwondo for Kids Life Skills system. This system was developed in order to help children with various essential life skills such as, respect, courtesy, self-discipline, self-esteem, self-confidence, and listening skills. Some common results observed by parents whose children participate in the Karate for Kids program include improved grades at school and displaying better social skills when interacting with their peers.

Our Taekwondo for Kids program is intended to assist students in three fundamental areas off the martial arts mat. These are at school at home and socially. We also invite parents to create their own “wish list” to better allow our instructors to target specific problem behaviors and help minimize or eliminate them. And while our Taekwondo for Kids program is ideal for teaching kids discipline, most kids stay in the program because it is fun.
