History

General Information

Taekwon-Do is practised by the young and old, male and female, people of varying levels of physical fitness. Nowadays, schoolchildren make up the largest group of Taekwon-Do students. This is unlike the early days when it was practised mainly by South Korean soldiers.

The largest Taekwon-Do association in Singapore is the Singapore Taekwondo Federation (STF), followed by the Singapore Taekwon-Do Academy. This is followed by the Singapore Taekwondo Gymnasium. There are an estimated 2000 students practising ITF-style Taekwon-Do (including the Singapore Taekwon-Do Academy) and 7000 practising Kukkiwon-style Taekwondo in Singapore.
