What is Taekwondo?
Literally translated, Taekwondo means "the way of the hand and foot".
Taekwondo (also spelled Tae Kwon Do or Taekwon-Do) is the most popular of the Korean martial arts and is the Korean national sport.
It is also one of the world's most commonly practiced martial arts.
Taekwondo is one of two martial arts (Judo being the other) competed with at the Olympic Games.
The actual beginnings of Taekwondo are obscured by time, but many historians believe it originated from a Korean martial arts form known as t'aekyon practiced over 1,300 years ago.
At Colorado Taekwondo Studios, you can expect to receive training in Taekwondo philosophy, forms, sparring, weapons, and self-defense.
For children, our curriculum emphasizes a "positive mental attitude" and "goal setting". Parents typically enroll their children in our program to develop leadership skills, instill discipline, and to involve their kids in an activity that is both fun and challenging.
Teens and adults, on the other hand, often join Taekwondo for physical fitness, coordination, self-defense, and technical martial art skills.
