What is Tae-Kwon-Do?    
It is an ancient form of martial arts.  Like karate, Tae-Kwon-Do was originated from China and practiced by the monks many years ago.  Then it was later brought to Korea and gained its popularity there. Literally, TAE means kick or foot, KWON means fist or hand, and DO (pronounced Doe) means the way or the art.

 

About the Instructor?
Mr. Victor Fong is the founder and head instructor of the Fong’s Tae-Kwon-Do Club. He formed the club shortly after he was asked by some neighbor kids to teach Tae-Kwon-Do in 1988. Mr. Fong has been practicing various styles of martial arts since 1974. Mr. Fong is a 1st degree black belt holder in Tae-Kwon-Do.

 

What will I learn?
Through training, you will learn to improve self-confidence and self-discipline. Various hand techniques, basic and advanced kicking techniques, blocks, stances, forms, breaking (boards), sparring and self-defense techniques will be taught.

 

Promotion & Ranks  
Promotion tests will be given periodically. If a student is proven to have gained proficiency in his/her skills, a higher rank will be awarded. There are 10 ranks between white belt and black belt.

 

Is Tae-Kwon-Do for me?
If you are someone who’s looking for a secret in martial art, or hoping to dominate others with the skills you learn, then this is not for you. In fact, there’s no secret in Tae-Kwon-Do. One becomes very proficient only through hard training. Tae-Kwon-Do is for you only if you are ready for vigorous training, self-discipline and respect to others.
