What Could Taekwondo Do For You?
2
  • The modern Olympic sport of Taekwondo, originated
    in Korea from an ancient form of martial art.
    Boasting more than 2000 years of history, it has
    become an increasingly popular mental and
    physical discipline that today, is practiced by
    people of all ages, shapes and sizes, the world
    over.

  • While many associate martial arts purely with
    self-defence, Taekwondo has so much more to teach
    us. Through learning it, you will of course be
    better able to defend yourself in the event of an
    assault, but you will also learn how to train
    your mind to cope better in times of stress, gain
    a body that becomes fit and toned and have more
    confidence in your everyday life. Below are
    3examples of what learning Taekwondo can help you
    achieve

  • A healthy body
  • Regularly practicing a martial art like
    Taekwondo, will help you to strengthen your
    entire body, from head to toe enabling you to
    achieve better muscle tone and giving you a body
    that feels sleek and flexible.
  • There are also many stretching techniques, and
    breathing and concentration exercises involved in
    Taekwondo, and as you gradually learn them all,
    you will notice that your reflexes and ability to
    remain alert, will be heightened, along with an
    increased feeling of energy.

5
  • A healthy mind
  • In this fast paced, hectic world that we live in
    today, keeping a healthy mind can be easier said
    than done. Work can overwhelm us and active
    social lives mean that were often left feeling
    drained and unable to function as well as we
    might. Regular Taekwondo classes will give you an
    opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle, and
    focus solely on yourself, and in the calm
    environment, you will be able to think clearly.

6
  • Exercising among other, like-minded people, will
    enable you to maintain a positive mental
    attitude, and help towards banishing any inner
    demons that you might possess. You will also be
    encouraged to eliminate any negative emotions and
    mindsets that you are prone to feeling, such as
    fear, jealousy and anger. Dedicated training and
    full commitment to Taekwondo could see your mind
    reach its full, positive potential.

7
  • Classes will also ensure that you are able to
    develop greater patience, while giving you the
    confidence, self-discipline and inner calm to
    tackle most challenges that everyday life that
    can throw at you.
  • The ability to defend yourself
  • Learning a martial art can work wonders not only
    in teaching you how to physically defend
    yourself, but mentally, too. Hopefully you will
    never need to defend yourself against an attack,
    but it can be reassuring to know that if the
    worst should happen, you are well equipped to
    handle matters confidently.

8
  • Rigorous and dedicated training will help you to
    learn the physical techniques that you will need,
    should you happen to face a potentially violent
    situation. Practicing these techniques until you
    can learn to use them with confidence, will help
    to decrease fear and intimidation levels within
    you, and you will become less inclined to see
    yourself as a victim throughout life in general.
  • The mental techniques Taekwondo will teach you,
    go hand in hand with the physical ones, and as
    you work on your sense of inner calm and
    self-confidence, the two will emerge naturally,
    together. You will be able to face a threatening
    situation calmly, safe in the knowledge that you
    are well equipped to defend yourself.
