Introduction of I.T.F. (國際跆拳道聯盟)

In 1966, the International Taekwon-Do Federation was established in Seoul, South Korea by our founder, General Choi Hong Hi. After half a century, the I.T.F is still rapidly expanding and absorbing different regions and countries to join the Taekwon -Do family. As a result, ITF has become an independent and international recognized organization.

Currently, ITF is under the presidency of Grand Master Choi Jung Hwa, son of our founder. Leading by president Choi’s, the development of ITF has been maturing ever since. Seminars and different training courses hosting in different countries promote the traditional Taekwon-Do to the world. Moreover, the international competitions held in different countries creating an opportunity for practitioners to share their technique and knowledge. Furthermore, it also provides a platform for cultural exchange and to promoting love and peace throughout the world of Taekwon-Do.

國際跆拳道聯盟簡介

一九六六年，國際跆拳道聯盟於跆拳道始創人崔泓熙將軍的帶領下，在南韓漢城（現稱首爾）成立，至今逾半個世紀的歷史，仍然不斷發展，持續吸引不同的國家及地區加入跆拳道的大家庭，令國際跆拳道聯盟成為一個獨立又龐大的國際組織。

現時，國際跆拳道聯盟由崔將軍的兒子崔重華師聖擔任總裁。於崔總裁的帶領下，國際跆拳道聯盟的發展更趨成熟，除了於不同的國家及地方舉辦多項的課程，令世界上更多人認識正統跆拳道，又於不同的國家與地方主辦了多場世界邀請賽，令不同國家的跆拳道練習者可以藉此機會分享大家的技術與練習成果，同時亦令不同地方的文化有所交流，使和平與愛一直隨著跆拳道的發展宣揚到世界上的每一個角落。
