Taekwondo, is a uniquely balanced activity because it increases your strength, flexibility and cardiovascular reserve concurrently something you might achieve at the health club, but just with an extremely tailored training regime which divides your time and effort evenly between weights, cardio machines as well as the stretching mats.
Taekwondo offers all this off-the-shelf, as it were, while engaging your brain and imagination in a manner that a treadmill or bench-press never can.
What's more, taekwondo encourages personal growth: it improves your mental focus and resilience while providing a powerful way to de-stress towards the end of your day. In addition, it has a philosophical basis, by nurturing ideals such as courtesy, modesty and integrity, an excellent school offers a space of mutual respect and encouragement.
This not merely facilitates the whole process of learning, in addition, it offers a haven from your ego-centrism and competitiveness of the outdoors.
Alright, which means you probably realise right now that Ia large believer in the worth of taekwondo. But the honest truth is that now, 16 years later, I couldn't imagine myself not doing it. I have had a continuing source of exercise, social contact and personal growth throughout my life, which is something to not be studied lightly.
Which brings me for the school Eastern Suburbs Taekwondo Sydney Australia (or Bondi Junction Taekwondo as it was at the time I started). The name lacks the razzamatazz and machismo of some fighting methods schools but that summarises the way of teaching: drop the attitude as well as the ego and return to the fundamentals of the art. Taekwondo needs to be accessible to everyone, not only the testosterone-enhanced minority.
When I first came to Eastern Suburbs Taekwondo, I became immediately impressed by the safe and friendly learning environment,and the constant motivation to become better, and adherence to the principles and philosophy of taekwondo: courtesy, modesty, integrity, perseverence, self control and indominatable spirit. I wanted to make that part of my life, and have done so from that time.
I discovered that taekwondo really complimented an academically rigorous lifestyle, and yes it contributed greatly to my achievements in this area.
I trained consistently and regularly without compromise throughout the five years of my university career and graduated with distinction and won academic prizes. I found that if I worked my education and activities around taekwondo, and made the principles an integral part of my life, I developed true success, resilience and understanding of my studies along with other aspects of my life.
