It's hard to explain in words just how much taekwondo means to us as a family.

Our transformation began the day we first walked into Rachel's dojang 2004.

And since that day our martial arts journey has taken us half-way round the world

And changed our lives in ways we never dreamed possible.

A good friend took this series of photos on the North Curl Curl beach in Australia.

We think she's captured our passion perfectly!



So what's tkd all about?
