With practice, these forms will enable fast, instinctual and reflexive combinations of techniques for use in real life defensive situations if they should arise. Sparring with opponents is practiced in order to work on timing, distancing, and patterns of movement and to mentally prepare the students in case of the need to defend themselves.<\/p>\n<p>As a sport, Tae Kwo Do is not only the official sport of Korea, but it also an Olympic sport. \u00a0Watching competitors spar each other and preform their forms is not only inspiring but also fun!<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"w-btn-wrapper align_left\"><a class=\"w-btn style_solid color_primary icon_none\" href=\"http:\/\/san-mai.com\/index.php\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Contact\"><span class=\"w-btn-label\">For More Info<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"w-separator type_invisible size_large\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-3 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">[vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;<strong>Search<\/strong>&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h5|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_wp_search]<div class=\"vc_wp_custommenu  layout_ver align_left\"><\/div><div class=\"w-separator type_invisible size_small\"><\/div>[vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;<strong>Happy Client\u2019s<\/strong>&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h5|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;]<div class=\"w-separator type_invisible size_medium\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_medium\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row type_default valign_top\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column \">\r\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tae Kwon Do Tae Kwon Do Tae Kwon Do, which means the way of the foot and hand\u00a0in Korean, is a martial art with a strong focus on kicking techniques.
