I’ve been teaching taekwon-do for over 25 years and that’s a heck of a lot of children. As part of our taekwon-do learning and teaching, we follow the tenets of taekwon-do. It struck me that certain behaviours repeat themselves in our classes and I began to think more closely about how we teach the children to develop, through following the tenets and how the tenets create a great framework for the way we bring up our children as parents.
With this in mind, I have written a series of five short blogs, each one discussing one of the tenets. What these blogs talk about raises wider awareness of the importance of the teaching of these tenets to all children, not just in the dojang.
