2008 International ITF Taekwon-Do Seminar in China



The 5th International ITF Taekwon-Do Seminar, which is organized by China International Taekwon-Do Federation (China ITF), will be held in Beijing, China from September 27th to 28th, 2008. China ITF proudly announces that one of the Taekwon-Do pioneers, Grandmaster Park Jong Soo, has confirmed to conduct the seminar. China Taekwon-Do lovers appreciate this opportunity that has been given by the vice president of ITF, Grandmaster Park, while his schedules are fully engaged with popularizing Taekwon-Do throughout the world.

Grandmaster Park was born in 1941 in Chung-Nam, Korea. He is one of the closest students of the Legendary TAEKWON-DO Founder, General Choi Hong Hi. He was named as the Korean National Champion, and had been the instructor of the Police Training Centre of Chun Bok in Korea and of the famed Tiger Division of the Korean Army. In 1965, Grandmaster Park made a trip on the request from the Korean Government, as a member of the Goodwill Mission for Taekwon-Do, to demonstrate this art before the highest civil and military authorities. In the next few years, he threw himself into the promotion of Taekwon-Do, and went to Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Grandmaster Park is known as one of the world's greatest Taekwon-Do experts.

General Choi Hong Hi had always reminded us: Taekwon-Do belongs to all human, All TKD practitioners, and instructors. Grandmaster Park will personally teach and guide Taekwon-Do in China. This is a golden opportunity. China ITF sincerely invites all the Taekwon-Do lovers all over the world to participate in the seminar. You will be most welcomed and pleased by the Chinese Taekwon-Do lovers’ hospitality.
