Extras
There are often tournaments, seminars, camps and other activities throughout the year. These are optional, and usually incur extra costs.
Taekwon-Do teaches you so much more than self-defence and kicking and punching. What you learn from years of training in Taekwon-Do is self-respect and respect for others, humility, and belief in your ability to achieve anything you want, both within Taekwon-Do and in everyday life.
