White Tiger Jung Moo Kwan Taekwondo

Taekwondo is the art of hand and foot fighting. This Korean art not only has the physical characteristics
that mirror the Korean culture, but the mental aspects clearly define it as a Korean art that illustrates the
Korean ethical aspects of its culture. Taekwondo was formed during the Silla Dynasty, but the history of
Taekwondo goes much deeper than this. Yes, the earliest reference to Taekwondo is Subak and
Taekkyon but the history of Taekwondo expands from these early reference to modern day. Somehow
the "art of kicking and punching" really does not describe the amount of hard work that the Koreans have
achieved to make this particular style of martial arts their own.
White Tiger appreciates this work and strives to be as traditional as possible to the guidelines offered
by the USNTF, yet still trying to incorporate some of the philosophy that makes White Tiger unique.
White Tiger Taekwondo meets two times a week. Click on the schedule button for specific dates and
times. Within the class we teach different kicking techniques as well as punching and blocking. We
teach Classical, and TaeGuek Poomse, and Olympic style sparring techniques as well as a modified
style basically between a modified mokan and Olympic style.
We study the teachings of the Hwarang and try to adapt their philosophy generated many years ago to
the modern era of living. The study of these ethics goes deeper than just memorizing, it is expected to
be used in society by exemplifying discipline and ideal manners.
