Egham Taekwondo (TW20): Introduced during the 1940's in Korea, South-East Asia, Taekwondo is a martial art which has grown in popularity in recent years. Known as a way to strengthen your mind and body, build your confidence, bolster your self-esteem and learn some self-defence moves, it has been embraced by large numbers of people throughout the world.
It needs to be asserted that Taekwondo can be fairly physically challenging, which may put off the older and less agile folks in Egham from becoming involved. To be completely truthful, the most common people participating in Taekwondo classes are kids and the younger generation, but unquestionably older individuals who're in great physical condition can easily take part and benefit from this sport.
The sport was first practiced in Korea in about 1945, though the name Taekwondo was not used until the 1950's. Some exciting new schools called "kwans" were established in Seoul by a group of Korean martial arts enthusiasts, blending a number of various martial arts techniques. The emphasis of Taekwondo, as it eventually became known, is on kicking manoeuvres, especially fast kicking techniques, turning/jumping kicks and head kicks. These days Egham Taekwondo classes abide by this tradition.
Ever since the Sydney Olympic Games in the year 2000, Taekwondo has been an Olympic sport. This has made it even more popular all over the world with some 60 million people or more regularly participating in classes. And it's by enrolling in a Taekwondo club or class that you can begin your adventure of mastering this remarkable art.
It is the self-defence aspect of Taekwondo that generally has the most appeal to people in Egham. This is not hard to believe when you take into account the high levels of violence experienced in town and city centres on a daily basis. However, exercising self-restraint and a respect for others goes hand in hand with the self-defence principles of Taekwondo.
There is a very good likelihood that your eagerly mastered Taekwondo skills will never need to be tested in the outside world, but it will unquestionably give you a secure feeling knowing that they are there should you ever be in need of them.
Your First Lesson
Different Taekwondo clubs in the Egham area will have different thoughts on what enrollees should cover on their first lesson, but to give you a perception of what you can expect most initial Taekwondo classes will involve a warm-up, some sparring, learning patterns (Poomse), a quick introduction to blocks, hand attacks, stances and kicks (practical training) and a final warm-down to relax weary muscles and get the body back to a state of harmony.
Everybody who is a member of a Taekwondo club in Egham or anywhere else in Great Britain, is also required to join British Taekwondo, which is the official regulating body of the sport.

Taekwondo for Beginners
Students starting out on their Taekwondo experience in Egham will first of all enroll in a beginners class. Beginners classes are fabulous, because there's no pressure and things are carried out at a slow and casual pace. Learning and having fun are the principal objectives in the beginning and trainees who are having a great time tend to learn a lot faster and absorb considerably more of what they're being taught. Even Taekwondo masters started off as naive newbies, so take that very first step and you never know where you will finish up!
Taekwondo Tournaments and Competitions
There are a wide variety of tournaments in Taekwondo involving all the various styles. They primarily include sparring, breaking and patterns with very little "hard contact". ITF tournaments don't allow excessive contact but do permit hand attacks to the head. WT (World Taekwondo) and Olympic competitions only allow sparring. Multi-style competitions are also held.
In Conclusion
Precisely what you acquire from Taekwondo will be directly related to what you put into it (as is true of life in general). Many of you will purely want to make new friends, improve your fitness levels and meet different people, some might aspire to move on to competitions or tournaments or possibly even the Olympics. But bear in mind, we cannot all end up being a Jade Jones or a Lutalo Muhammad. 👊
