Taekwondo is an ancient form of Martial Arts (unarmed combat) practiced for many
centuries in the Orient, and came to be perfected in its present form in Korea. It
is not only an effective, weaponless art of self-defense, but also a competitive
sport and a good method of maintaining all-round fitness.

Northants Taekwondo offer students the opportunity to become a Black Belt in a well
known and respected Martial Art. As well as learn street useful self-defense
techniques, compete in sporting tournaments throughout the UK and abroad and

Taekwondo by visiting their web site at http://www.northants-taekwondo.com/

As an exercise Taekwondo is equally suitable for the more mature as well as for
young men, women and children. Many Taekwondo practitioners report improved health
and fitness levels after regular training.

Taekwondo is for everyone, whether a you are a young 6 year old, or a more mature
60+ year old. It is designed so that even someone with the slightest build and
musculature can defend themselves against the largest of attackers. It is the
technique itself and not the build of the student that generates power. Anyone can
do it, all you have to do is start.
