Learn Taekwondo and Self Defense
Mercer University teams up with Tucker Taekwondo Center to offer classes
Taekwondo, “the way of the hands and feet,” has been developed in Korea over 20 centuries, and has grown into a popular international martial art as well as a sport. Sharp, strong, angular strikes in free-flowing circular movements combine with trademark kicking techniques to form a complete system of self defense and fitness.
Become strong and in shape:
The intrinsic emphasis on kicking provides muscle toning for the lower body, increase of lower body strength, and a fast-paced workout for overall exercise.
Make yourself less vulnerable to crime, on and off campus: The skill of Taekwondo and added self-defense techniques, combined with growing self-awareness and self-confidence, makes the Taekwondo student less susceptible to becoming a victim.
Grow independence and self-confidence:
Gaining a skill increases self-confidence, assertiveness, and empowerment.
Take advantage of the fantastic health benefits:
Regular exercise can give you more energy; relieve depression; reduce risk of hypertension, heart attack, and stroke; lower stress levels; assist in weight control; encourage greater bone density and less risk of osteoporosis; reduce cancer risk; and help you bounce back more quickly after work and school.
