Bungay Taekwondo (NR35): Developed in the nineteen forties in Korea, South-East Asia, Taekwondo is a martial art that has grown in popularity in the last 20 years or so. Known as a way to bolster your self-esteem, develop your body and mind, boost your confidence and learn some valuable self-defence techniques, it's been embraced by tens of millions of people around the world.
While not intending to be in any way ageist, Taekwondo can be rather physical and is generally more suited to younger people in Bungay, it is especially good for children who will learn to be self-disciplined and respecting of others. Older adults who are not all that fit and active might find it a tad too taxing. However those who take up Taekwondo in Bungay at a young age will find they can easily carry it on into older adulthood. If you consider yourself among the less agile, you could try something like Tai Chi which is much softer.
Taekwondo came from Korea in 1945. A group of Korean martial arts fanatics in Seoul established some new schools called "kwans", where they practiced a combination of martial arts techniques. The main focus of Taekwondo, as it ultimately became known, is on kicking manoeuvres, in particular fast kicking methods, head-height kicks and turning/jumping kicks. Now Bungay Taekwondo classes comply with this tradition.
Ever since the Sydney Olympic Games in the year 2000, Taekwondo has been a competitive Olympic sport. This has made it even more popular throughout the world with some sixty million people or more regularly participating in classes. And it's by enrolling in a Taekwondo class or club that you are able to commence your adventure of learning this unique art.
For the men, women and children of Bungay who want to learn a martial art, a major priority is the element of self-defence. Since this is a pivotal concept of Taekwondo, it's not difficult to see the attraction of this particular sport. With the extra reward of learning self-restraint and having a deep respect for other people, enrolling in a local Bungay Taekwondo class would seem to be a no brainer.
Your newly learned Taekwondo skills will likely never need to be put to the test outside the regulated setting of an organised Taekwondo class, however being aware of the fact that you have them will instill you with self-confidence.
