Commonly called "Korean Karate," Tae Kwon Do is similar to karate in many ways, including its use of colored belts, ranging from white through black, to show rank.

They will learn how to effectively defend themselves from potential harm, increase their physical and mental fitness, and improve their balance and coordination. Students will also learn patience and respect towards others and, most importantly, toward themselves.
