Honouring the Founder's Vision

On this day in this year, we have an unprecedented opportunity to reflect on the Founder's vision and purpose in the development of Taekwon-Do.  Never before have the fundamental principles of creating a martial art to promote the physical and mental wellbeing of people of all ages and abilities throughout the world been more relevant than our shared experiences during the COVID-19 coronavirus.

Many people, both practitioners and observers of Taekwon-Do, focus on the competition aspect of our activity.  These difficult times have provided a most salutary reminder that grassroots Taekwon-Do is intended to reach every layer of humanity - those challenged in health, body, education, living or financial resources to any degree, to males, to females, young, in their prime, older ....

General Choi's vision and teachings have now been reaffirmed and demonstrated in the words and actions of those associated with Taekwon-Do in the care and concern for all members of our communities through the world.
