Taekwondo
Sport Overview
This martial art was born in the Republic of Korea based on martial arts that have been handed down from the Korean Peninsula since ancient times.
Kyorugi (spurring) involves athletic full-contact martial art that mixes karate and kickboxing, with a special emphasis on footwork.
Poomsae (pattern) is a combination of Taekwondo defense and attack technique. The Poomsae is performed while moving in all directions on Yeon-mu line (the progress line of the Poomsae).
