Language of instruction: Finnish and English
Taekwondo in its current form is less than 70 years old but its background is in the centuries old martial arts traditions in Korea, as well as in neighboring countries Japan and China. Taekwondo developed into a distinctive combat sport in the 1960s, when its competition rules were changed to be clearly different from karate. Kicks were given added emphasis compared to punches and the sparring was made full contact with protective guards.
Taekwondo training has four main sectors: sparring (kyorugi), forms (poomsae), self-defense (hosinsul), and breaking (kyukpa). Taekwondo offers versatile exercise opportunities to develop the athlete's physical and psychological qualities in accordance with their own goals and interests. In the course, all aspects of taekwondo are practiced, allowing participants to develop balance, coordination, mind control, flexibility, muscle condition, and agility. This course is suitable both for beginners and advanced.
A belt rank system is used as a measure of progress in taekwondo. A voluntary belt test is organized at the end of the course. The belt test has a separate fee and is not part of the course price.
A water bottle, track suit, and t-shirt are suitable equipment for the course. A taekwondo suit (dobok) is only necessary when participating in the belt test. Suits, personal protective guards, and other equipment can be purchased as a joint order during the course through the instructor's taekwondo club.
The teaching follows the principles of the Finnish Taekwondo Federation and Kukkiwon (Taekwondo's main organization). Teaching is given in both Finnish and English and the course is suitable both beginners and advanced trainers.
