Welcome to the Greystones School of Taekwon-Do.
Taekwon-Do is a modern martial art and can be practiced by young and old, male and female. It is a tremendous form of exercise and personal development and we offer classes for children and adults with highly skilled and experienced instructors.
Developed in Korea by General Choi Hong Hi, the name Taekwon-Do was introduced by General Choi Hong Hi on the 11th April 1955. It is a modern discipline that combines the development of combat techniques, self-defense, sport and exercise with philosophy. This philosophy is epitomized by the tenets and the student oath which form the cornerstone of the art.
The Tenets:
Courtesy
Integrity
Perseverance
Self-control
Indomitable Spirit
The Student Oath:
I shall observe the tenets of Taekwon-Do
I shall respect my instructors and seniors
I shall never misuse Taekwon-Do
I shall be a champion of freedom and justice
I shall build a more peaceful world
