Taekwondo is a martial art that mostly features high-kicking manoeuvres, most notably jumping/spinning kicks, head-height kicks and rapid kicking strategies.

And in these days of increased violence, especially in town and city centres, it is no surprise that this features high on people's list of priorities.
