Dan Perry is new to the dojo
Default Starting Taekwondo

It is true Taekwondo is the most widely practiced Martial ARt in the World. Although there is a lot to be said for the fast paced sparring associated with WTF style Taekwondo, ITF focus is on control and personal victory through training.
As Taekwondo has evolved, there are a few closed forms systems as well such as the Song-Ahm System of the ATA and the Pilsung System of the NPTA (The NPTA also teaches the traditional Chon-Hon Pattern system.
Look for a good organization, one that can help lead you to the goals that you set.
Be careful of self proclamation and open promise about rank. A solid organization is the best way to fill your Martial Art Training needs
