Taekwondo is a popular martial art that is practiced in as many as 123 countries all over the world. It has been estimated that there are more than 30 million practitioners of this unique martial art, of which more than 3 million are black-belts.

Tae Kwon Do uniforms are called "dobok." The training hall where practice is held is called "do-jang," and the Koren word "sijack" means "commence" or begin practice.

“Always assume that your opponent is going to be bigger, stronger and faster than you; so that you learn to rely on technique, timing, and leverage rather than brute strength” -Helio Gracie. Training in BJJ will makes sure you alway know exactly what to do when you need it.

While Taekwondo is top-of-mind when it comes to Korean martial arts, Hwa Rang Do is not far behind. This fighting art was developed in the 60s by brothers Joo Bang Lee and Joo Sang Lee and incorporates stand up fighting, open hand striking, takedowns, ground fighting as well as weapons.
