Experience the most complete Taekwondo-based self-defense program in the world — taught by Grandmasters from Korea.

What is Taekwondo Defense?

Taekwondo Defense (TKDD) is a modern, realistic self-defense system built entirely upon Taekwondo principles. Used by martial artists, police, and military units in countries like South Korea and Mexico, TKDD fills the gap between sport and practicality.

Unlike many systems that borrow techniques from various martial arts, TKDD stays true to Taekwondo while addressing real-world scenarios.

Why Choose Taekwondo Defense?

Taekwondo today often focuses on sport (Olympic) or tradition — but both lack practical self-defense. TKDD bridges this gap, offering powerful, easy-to-learn techniques designed for real-life situations.

Whether you're a coach, athlete, or beginner — TKDD gives you tools to protect and empower.

  • ✔ Founded on real Taekwondo techniques

  • ✔ Used by police and military units

  • ✔ Licensed instructor program available

  • ✔ Suitable for all martial artists

Is This Seminar Right for You?

Absolutely — if you're a martial artist with a black belt or equivalent rank in any discipline, you are welcome to join. Whether you practice Taekwondo, Karate, Hapkido, Jiu-Jitsu, or any other traditional or modern martial art, the Taekwondo Defense Seminar is designed to complement and enhance your skills with real-world, practical self-defense techniques.

 

This seminar is a perfect fit for:

  • ✔  Black belts from any martial art

  • ✔ Instructors seeking new curriculum options

  • ✔ Martial artists looking to expand into reality-based self-defense

  • ✔ Those interested in earning an official TKDD Dan rank and instructor license
