Grand Master Petros Agamemnonos Petrou - 6 Dan (Federation founder)
Philosophy
Traditional Taekwon-do learning is a lifelong effort, a continuous movement for the body and spirit that teaches us humbleness, respect, discipline, courtesy, integrity and self-control. The ultimate aim of the Taekwon-do is to create, not destroy.
Through long-term training we develop physical and mental skills, regardless of age and gender. We learn to surpass stress and physical and mental exhaustion, by knowing ourselves better. Through self-motivation, we improve our coordination and learn not to ever give up! It is an unending challenge, a lifelong learning, an opportunity of balancing body and spirit.
Its a beautiful journey full of experiences.
