Our taekwondo club is a fairly recent addition to the school’s extra-curricular activities, but its popularity has grown at a rapid rate.
The martial art originated in Korea. The name taekwondo literally translates as the way of the foot and the fist.
As you can see, precision high kicks formed the main part of the end-of-term display given by our young martial arts students.
Taekwondo is great exercise and involves the excitement of hand-to-hand (and foot-to-foot!) combat.
At the end of every session, the combatants are encouraged to seek a moment of mindful relaxation.
No wonder they enjoy taekwondo so much!
