ITF Taekwondo Okazawa Dojo ☆ Iwate

Would you like to try Taekwondo, a Korean martial art, together?

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

Those techniques are only possible because they make full use of flexibility, core strength, and the body's springiness.

Therefore, Taekwondo schools and dojos dedicate a considerable amount of time to flexibility and core training.
Furthermore, the program primarily consists of aerobic exercise that involves continuously applying light to moderate intensity to burn fat.

In recent years, with the growing awareness of health issues such as preventing lifestyle-related diseases, relieving mental and physical stress, and improving beauty and weight loss , the number of people learning martial arts, including Taekwondo, has been increasing.

There are two main organizations : the ITF, which primarily preserves and develops the forms of traditional martial arts, and the WTF, which develops martial arts as a sport .

In the ITF, variations of hand-punching techniques (chirugi) have increased , and the WTF has become an Olympic and Paralympic sport.

The sport's popularity extends beyond Asia to countries around the world, and it also serves as a valuable communication tool.

Starting your life with "I'm learning tae-kwon-do" and "So, cool!" can be fun too.
