Korean Martial Arts ITF Taekwondo Class

Would you like to try Korean martial arts with me?

When you think of Taekwondo, you probably have a strong image of acrobatic techniques such as heel drops , spin kicks , and flying kicks .

These techniques are possible only by making full use of flexibility, core strength, and bodily springiness.

For this reason, Taekwondo schools and dojos spend a lot of time on flexibility and core training. On the other hand, muscle training is not done much. (Of course, there are people who do it because they like it, and people who do it as supplementary training.)
In addition, because it is primarily aerobic exercise that burns fat through continuous light to moderate loads, it is said to be extremely effective for beauty and health.
Taekwondo is written in Chinese characters as "跆けん道". Although it is a martial art that originated on the Korean Peninsula, it may be closer to the image of ballroom dancing, gymnastics, and yoga. The number of participants is not limited to Asia but has spread to countries all over the world, and it is also useful as a communication tool.

Life can be fun if it starts with, "I'm learning tae-kwon-do" and "so, cool!"

Children develop their minds and bodies through martial arts!
