My kids started taking Taekwondo (Kukkiwon – World Taekwondo Federation WTF) at Protec USA Tae Kwon Do in Cedar Hill / Duncanville, TX. They really enjoyed it and I thought it would be something to do together, so I started doing it with them.

I was surprised at how much of a workout it is. There are a lot of warmup exercises, including pushups, crunches, etc., as well as blocks and punches. The main goal at our studio is to learn the Poomsae, which are the Kukkiwon forms. I found the videos for each form on YouTube, so I’ll be creating posts here for me to learn and practice each one. I hope they help you, as well.
