Native to Korea, Taekwondo is a martial art that primarily focuses on techniques utilizing the legs. Kicks, stances, and footwork are all vital to developing a strong foundation in Taekwondo. In addition to physical conditioning, Taekwondo emphasizes cultivating the mind and body as one, enabling practitioners to instinctively apply these techniques.
The UC Santa Cruz Taekwondo Club is student-run and includes practitioners ranging up to 3rd Dan black belt. Practices consist of kicking, poomsae, sparring, and our yearly demo(s)! We welcome everyone—regardless of skill level—to train with us and become part of UC Santa Cruz Taekwondo!
