Frequently Asked Questions

What is TaeKwon-Do?

"TaeKwon-Do" means "way of foot fist fighting."  It is rooted in an ancient Korean form of martial art, and is one of the best methods of self defense, as well as one of the quickest ways to get in shape physically. TaeKwon-Do is suitable for everyone, regardless of age or gender.

Why TaeKwon-Do?

For the student, TaeKwon-Do:

• Teaches Respect

What makes Global Taekwon-Do special?

Our new 2200 square foot training floor gives you plenty of room to workout and learn TaeKwon-Do. With three class times taught 5 days each week, there's a class to fit your schedule. Some classes are divided by rank, others are open to familes of all ages. We also offer adult-only classes.

At Global TaeKwon-Do we teach solid, traditional TaeKwon-Do. There are no contracts to sign — never have been. We know that some people just want to get a good work out, so competing is not required in order to advance in rank.

Some of our students like to meet people from other places and enjoy the challenge of competition. For them, we send competitors to the annual Gateway International Championships sponsored each year by the Phoenix Group. We have also sent competitors to the US Nationals and the World Championships. Global TaeKwon-Do is a sponsor of the Houston Invitational, and also attends several other competitions in Texas.

We also have classes in schools and daycares around the Houston area. Contact Mr. Howard to find a program near you.
