event InvitationOne spirit – one force – one Taekwon-Do in its homeland

Martial Arts breaking down barriers to friendship

2013 event Leading Mottos | 1st Korean KicK The World’s Martial arts Festival

On behalf of the orga-nizing committees of the events in Korea, it is our great plea-

sure to invite you to the home-land of Taekwon-Do,

Korea to celebrate “The Open Taekwon-Do

World Championship & the 1st Korean Kick

– The World’s Martial Arts Festival” that will

take place between 30th of July and 5th of

August 2013 in Seoul, South Korea. These

events are open to any Taekwon-Do and

Martial Arts practitioners as well as to sup-

porters, family members and guests who

would like to enjoy Korean hospitality and

experience Korean culture and life.

The aim of the 2013 events is to gather

together Martial Arts exponents, individu-

als, parents, family members, enthusiasts,

organizations, groups or associations from

around the world that practice or support

any form of Taekwondo, and celebrate in

a festive atmosphere this beautiful art in

the country of its birth. The Korean Kick

Festival and The Open World Taekwon-Do

Championships will contribute to building

a more peaceful world by educating youth

through Taekwon-Do without discrimi-

nation of any kind (religion, nationality,

political views, gender, age or culture), and

under the Taekwon-Do tenets of cour-

tesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control,

indomitable spirit that provide a platform

for mutual understanding of the differences

in the spirit of friendship, solidarity and fair

competition.

Dear TaekwOn-DO anD marTial

arTs brOThers,

It is my great honor to welcome you to Ko-

rea, the homeland of Taekwon-Do, and to

provide a meeting place for the world’s fin-

est Martial Artists and friends. ITF HQ Korea

strives not only to unite Taekwon-Do in the

future under the banner “One Taekwon-Do

in its homeland” but also to unite Martial

Arts through the slogan “One Martial Arts

World”. This aim has been fostered through

our many contacts and discussions with

world Martial Arts organizations and groups

that feel in our rapidly changing world, in

order to deal with these changes, Martial

Arts need to set a new paradigm based

on an interchange of technical knowledge

and the development of a modern global

administrative structure that removes the

customary vested interests of some exist-

ing organizations.

With an understanding that regardless

of the style of martial art most have this

similar ideal and can together take a leading

role and develop or combine techniques to

advance in parallel with each other in this

evolving world. By combining our efforts

it is possible to create a global comrade-

ship regardless of any political, ideological

or economic barriers and become a one

Martial Arts family and community.

Let’s raise the curtain in Korea, the country

of Martial Arts. Korea is everyone’s , lets

unite altogether and create one system,

build community networks and contrib-

ute and share our Martial Arts World for

everyone.
