Taekwon-do

What is Taekwon-do?

Taekwon-do, is a Korean martial art and it’s name translated means the way of the hand and foot. At Classic Taekwon-do Academy, we practice the Chang Hon system of Taekwon-Do, as developed and promulgated  by the late Father of Modern Taekwon-Do, and Founder of the International Taekwon-Do Federation (ITF), Gen. Choi Hong Hi. Our teacher and mentor, Grandmaster Dr. Yeow Cheng Watt, 9th degree blackbelt studied under the late founder, and passed the essence and knowledge of the art to us.

We firmly believe that by placing equal emphasis on the physical, physiological and psychological development of our Instructors and Students, they will be better empowered to have greater Control over Self, their Environment and Circumstances.
 Taekwon-Do, is more than just a physical sport or self-defense system. As with most other traditional martial arts a deep-rooted  historical, cultural and philosophical evolution of man was formulated on a set of ideologies, beliefs, principles and values to help the practitioner lead better and more fulfilling lives, and to regulate interaction between his fellow man.
