Welcome
Tae Kwon Do is a Korean martial art which requires the use of only the hands and feet, without weapons. The main goal of Tae Kwon Do is to achieve total mind and body control.
The University of Pennsylvania Tae Kwon Do Club is taught by master Felice Macera (4th degree black belt) in a traditional setting that emphasizes both mental and physical conditioning. Classes, scheduled approximately three times a week, are intended to challenge the body physically through aerobic and muscular conditioning while using the energy generated to create a better awareness of mental focus and control to be applied both inside and outside the training room. Through the mastering of forms and techniques, Tae Kwon Do encourages individual growth and enlightenment within a NON-competitve environment. We encourage individual achievement in a group-supporting environment where all are given equal opportunity to better themselves in both martial arts and their life pursuits.
