Welcome to the exciting Sport and Martial Art of Taekwon-Do & Little Tiger Cubs. What is Taekwon-Do? Taekwon-Do literally means Foot (Tae) Hand (Kwon) Art (Do) - the Art of Hand and Foot fighting. Taekwon-Do is a Korean martial art and can be described as the scientific use of the body for self-defence. Taekwon-Do will improve your fitness, flexibility, coordination and self-confidence. Taekwon-Do training is safe, practical and most of all enjoyable. What Taekwon-Do Group are you joining? What Clothing to Wear To commence training, new students should wear loose comfortable sportswear such as jogging trousers and a T-shirt.
