About Taekwondo :
Taekwondo translates roughly to “the way of hand and foot.” Tae means striking with the foot and kwon means striking with the fist. As the definitions suggest, taekwondo is a striking sport. That means that athletes make contact when sparring (fighting). During sparring matches, athletes wear protective gear to help keep competitors safe.

Taekwondo originated in Korea. Its current organized form is relatively modern, but versions of the martial art have been present in Korean culture for as long as 1,300 years. It has been an Olympic sport since 2000.
Taekwondo is governed by Kukkiwon, a Korean organization that regulates training and certifications of taekwondo practitioners.

Outside Kukkiwon, there are two primary taekwondo organizations: WTF (World Taekwondo Federation) and ITF (International Taekwon-do Federation). There are some differences between WTF and ITF schools, including sparring rules and traditional poomse (forms). In addition, the WTF governs Olympic taekwondo.
Centurion Taekwondo UTEG Club is a WTF academy.
