🥋🎙️ Episode 1: Why Taekwondo Is More Than Just Kicking

Is Taekwondo just flashy kicks and Olympic sparring — or is it something much deeper?

In the very first episode of Kicking It with Taekwondo, Master Daniel “The Technician” Park and Jasmine “Jaz” Rivera dive into the heart of the martial art we love. From its philosophy and discipline to its evolution into a global sport governed by World Taekwondo, this episode explores what truly makes Taekwondo unique.

The hosts debate Traditional vs. Olympic Taekwondo, share their personal journeys into the dojang, and discuss how the sport’s presence in the Olympic Games changed the landscape forever.
