Taekwondo is a Korean Martial Art characterized by quick and powerful leg kicks. The name of the art translates to “the way of the foot and fist.” Today, Taekwondo is one of the most well-known forms of martial arts and the easiest styles to learn for anyone of any age worldwide. Although the original forms of martial arts from which Taekwondo takes its roots go way back, it has a very short history in its current form. It is young compared to other forms of Asian martial arts, like Karate. The development of Taekwondo as we know it today began in the 1940s. The art came about through the work of various martial artists. It was born from a combination of older art forms like Chinese martial arts and Korean martial arts, such as Taekkyeon, which is focused on dynamic footwork and striking; Subak, the martial art predecessor of Taekkyeon; and Gwonbeop, which is the Korean version of the Chinese martial arts.
