Publisher's summary

Taekwondo is distinct in many aspects. Although it is a combat sport, it is incredibly ironic. In contrast to violence or anarchy, Taekwondo sparring fosters a sense of camaraderie. Taekwondo is a lifestyle that you need to experience.

A Guide for Bringing benefits from doing Taekwondo

This is a great book. It contained all the essential knowledge about the origin of sports and their basic principles, which came from ancient techniques used in the Korean War. I highly recommend this book, as it helped me master a few techniques and movements like self-defence and blocking. I have been trying to do it for many weeks, but now I think I will pass it in my next taekwondo class. I am grateful to the author for writing such a detailed and comprehensive guide for us. It was worth my money, so I am recommending it to all Taekwondo lovers.

learning experience!

Taekwondo is one of the best strength training for muscles and our body. My brother recently developed interest in this and asked me to look up for some classes so he can learn this amazing sport. Hats off to author for being my brothers perfect teacher and explaining each and every detail with enthusiasm that he didn't join any other class. The book is very informative as i ended up knowing all the taekwondo stuff which my brother was supposed to learn.

Great Book For Beginners

My boys have both started Taekwondo and they are super passionate about the sport, so I decided to look into and educate myself so I can be able to share the same passion with them and this covers everything! From A-Z the history behind it, and how it was introduced to America. Hands down the best book on Taekwondo. Highly recommend.

Pretty interesting!

I have always been interested in Taekwondo and other eastern disciplines. This book is the best introduction to an unfamiliar thing I have ever read. This was simple, to the point, and packed with rich content needed to know about this "sport." What I like about this is the emphasis placed on discipline and strength of mind. This will help people master not only this art but other areas of their lives as well. Good job!

I bought this book for my son but I'm actually really enjoying it myself lol. He's been looking to learn about Taekwondo before deciding to take some classes and this is beyond perfect. My son has always wanted to know everything about everything when he's learning and this will be the perfect resource for him!!

Fascinating Audiobook!

i never knew anything about Taekwando, but really enjoyed the history as it was presented in this book. After the author emphasizes that it should only be used in competitions or as a last resort on the streets in self-defense, several stretching and preparation exercises are described as well as several variations of techniques. The instructions are easy to follow and will give the beginner student instruction on how to concentrate and use self-control in their movements. A must-read for those interested in this unique sport.

Great resource

This was a great audiobook for me. I have always wanted to learn more about Taekwondo but didn't have time. I finally decided to buy this book to learn something about it. It is just right for someone like me who doesn't know anything about Taekwondo. It gives you the basic information: applications, history, different forms, and some variations of techniques. I recommend this book for any beginner who wants to learn more about Taekwondo.

Beautiful sport!

I learned while listening to this book that Taekwondo is not only a sport for strengthening and toning muscles, but also improves concentration and endurance. Those who practice it claim that it brings inner peace and helps develop discipline. Taekwondo is a strength-based sport that requires a lot of mental exercise.

In addition to building muscle, students learn to make quick decisions, keeping in mind to avoid hitting, not hurting. It's an art, that's for sure.
