What is Tae Kwon Do?
It is a traditional Korean martial art which translated literally means “THE WAY OF THE HANDS AND FEET – SELF DEFENSE”
It is a system of self-defense, physical fitness, and a way of life. Learning Tae Kwon Do involves developing physical techniques, mental discipline, and a deep philosophy. By practicing Tae Kwon Do, one can benefit in many ways.
1. PHYSICALLY – One can develop good coordination, gain strength, increase flexibility, and improve cardiovascular conditioning. By developing these physical qualities one can have a strong body.
2. MENTALLY – One can build self-confidence, gain better judgment, and improve self-control. From all these mental disciplines, once can have a sound mind.
While developing a strong body and a sound mind, it is also appropriate to learn the valuable tools and lessons offered by the Tae Kwon Do philosophy.
“A Winner is someone who sets goals, commits to those goals, and then pursues those goals with all of his or her ability.”
At Hillsboro Eagles Unified Tae Kwon Do we follow the teachings of Grandmaster Bu Kwang Park. Grandmaster Park is one of the founders of UTKD, and his accomplishments inspire us every day.
