Taekwondo is a martial art that mainly consists of kicking manoeuvres and moves, most notably head-height kicks, fast kicking techniques and turning/jumping kicks. It began in Seoul, in southern Korea in the 1940's, when a group of martial arts specialists founded schools called "kwans", which combined a variety of martial arts practices.
