FAQs

Taekwondo, literally translated as "foot-fist-way", is the traditional martial art and Olympic sport of Korea. It differs from Japanese karate in that it features kicking skills but utilizes all parts of the body for self-defense. At CHOSUN, we teach a pure form of taekwondo focusing on cultivating the mind, body and spirit.

Promotion Examinations are held every quarter, generally during the months of February, May, August, and November. Students are formally invited to test by the instructors based on their ability to demonstrate proficiency in skill sets mandated by belt rank. Once the instructors feel the student is prepared to test, their eligibility will be symbolized by affixing a stripe on the tip of their current belt.
