The objective of this club is to facilitate the mastery of
Tae Kwon Do; as an art, sport, science, and a form of self-defense. Findlay Tae Kwon Do follows
conduct and sparring rules established by the World Tae Kwon Do Federation (WTF) in order to achieve
the above stated purpose. This class teaches forms, striking techniques, board breaking, blocking
techniques, throws, sparring, and self-defense. With the exception of purchasing a uniform, Findlay
Tae Kwon Do is a free organization, open only to University of Findlay students.
With the intense study of a martial art like Tae Kwon Do
one can expect to develop certain attributes. Those attributes include being physically fit and
being knowledgeable in self-defense. Both require regular and intensive training. The techniques
learned in Tae Kwon Do shall be used for self-defense only. Engaging in any unprovoked physical
confrontation will result in termination of club membership.
Findlay Tae Kwon Do is instructed by students who have
attained the rank of red belt or higher. The club was first organized in December of 1998, and has
since flourished due to the lessons handed down from instructor to student. Although the club
is free, individuals are still expected to conduct themselves in a manner befitting only
the best traditions of martial arts in and outside of the Do Jahng. Unprofessional,
deceitful, or dangerous behavior will never be tolerated.
