Tae-Kwon-Do in Birmingham UK
"Tae Kwon Do" is Korean for "Foot Fist Way" or "Kick Punch Way" – the way of kicking with feet and punching with fists (or sparring in general, usually without weapons). Heavily influenced by Japanese Karate, Tae Kwon Do is very similar to karate, with that added flair of extra athleticism that Koreans are noted for with break dancing. Taekwondo is popular in western countries because it's heavily marketed – much like karate – and has more impressive-looking high jumping kicks than any other mainstream martial art. With lots of stretching and stamina building, Taekwondo is ideal for fitness fanatics. If you want an intensive workout and a very flexible body – albeit probably exhausted after training – Taekwondo could be for you.
