Taekwon-Do is a Korean Martial Art consisting of different punching and kicking techniques, specialising in head-height kicks, jumping spinning kicks and fast kicking techniques.
The name Taekwon-Do literally translates as ‘The Art of Foot and Hand’.
‘Tae’ means jumping, flying and kicking with the foot.
‘Kwon’ means to punch or destroy with the fist or hand.
‘Do’ means way of life or the Art.
