Tae Kwon Do, literally the way of fist and foot, is a Korean martial art practicing a set of techniques for blocking, kicking, punching, and avoiding attack. Practiced for more than 2,000 years, Tae Kwon Do combines discipline, concentration, accuracy, speed, power, balance, and focus.
Practices consist of basics, a set of fifteen moves, forms, and free style sparring.
