Mr.Oleksandr Dmytruv

Vice-President of Original ITF Taekwon-Do of America

In ITF Taekwon-Do, discipline is the foundation of personal growth and technical mastery. It teaches practitioners to control their actions, thoughts, and emotions both inside and outside the dojang. Cooperation is equally vital, fostering respect among students and building a spirit of teamwork essential for group training and progress. Values like perseverance, integrity, and respect shape not only a competent martial artist but also a responsible and ethical individual. Through consistent training, these principles become a way of life, empowering students to face challenges with confidence and humility.
