The Five Tenets of Tae Kwon Do
Courtesy
Courtesy means to respect all people at all times. Tae Kwon Do students need to act with courtesy in the Tae Kwon Do school and everywhere else in their lives.
Integrity
Integrity means doing the right thing because it’s the right thing to do, even when no one is looking. Tae Kwon Do students need to practice integrity to remain true to themselves at all times.
Perseverance
Perseverance means once you start something to never give up until it’s over. Tae Kwon Do students should always work towards a goal and stop at nothing to achieve it.
Self-Control
Self-Control means to be the master of you at all times. To remain level-headed in every place in life. Tae Kwon Do students need to exhibit self control, so they don’t use their skills in a bad way.
Indomitable Spirit
Indomitable Spirit means having a winning attitude. Tae Kwon Do students need a “Yes I Can” attitude in everything they do. To always be the best we can put 100% into everything we do.
