Martial Arts in Perth, Western Australia

Traditional Taekwondo is a form of Taekwondo that was exported out of Korea between 1950s and 1960s. It was developed mainly by Korean Shotokan Karate instructors. This early form of Taekwondo is unlike the sporting variety you see at the Olympics. Like Shotokan, it has powerful and devastating hand techniques plus powerful and versatile kicks.

The architects of Taekwondo were looking to form a martial art catering towards the needs of a newly developing Korean army. They redeveloped Shotokan Karate patterns to form a new training program for army personnel. These patterns make for a very effective training approach by combining time-tested and modern applications. Read more about martial arts training in Nedlands.
