A General Introduction
Tae Kwon Do literally means "the way of kicking and punching" (Tae='To kick', Kwon='to punch' and Do='art, or the way'). Its techniques were developed and perfected over many centuries out of the basic need for protection against enemy attacks. Humankind's most basic instinct is that of survival, and at a time when no other means of defense existed, bare hands skills were the difference between life and death. As human-kind developed tools, weapons were also developed (many based on farm tools), but even then people devoted themselves to developing physical strength and skills. Tae Kwon Do developed from this basic need of survival into a complete system of self-defense and personal improvement whose sharp strong angular movements combined with smooth circular movements produce a balance of beauty and power.

The History of Tae Kwon Do
The History of Tae Kwon Do Tae Kwon Do is a young martial art with a history dating back 10,000 years to ancient times. When translated literally from Korean, ‘Tae’ means ‘to kick or foot’, ‘Kwon’ means ‘to punch or hand’ and ‘Do’ means ‘way or art’. When combined, Tae Kwon Do means ‘The art of kicking and punching’ or ‘The art of foot and fist fighting’, basically unarmed combat. What sets Tae Kwon Do apart from the other martial arts is the large variety, of powerful kicking techniques that are used in it. More than simply being just a system of self-defense, Tae Kwon Do is a way of life, dedicated to the moral, ethical, and mental development of its students. Tae Kwon Do's seven tenets are Honor, Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control, Courage and Community; all students of this art are expected to live by these basic guidelines.

The first historical indications of unarmed self defence or martial arts are found in ancient India at about 2,600 B.C. These techniques likely complemented the use of weapons, and provided self defence tools against other people and animals. These Indian unarmed self defence techniques were brought to China in about 525 A.D. by Buddhist monks and evolved into what we know today as Kung Fu. Chinese martial arts spread to Okinawa in the 1400s, and Okinawan martial arts spread to Japan in the 1800s, evolving into what we know today as Karate.
The modern period of Taekwondo began with the defeat of the Japanese and the liberation of Korea in 1945. Korean martial arts masters wanted to eliminate Japanese influences. They began discussions on how to return to the traditional Taekyon based Korean martial arts and on how to unite the various martial arts schools (or Kwans) and styles into a single style and national sport. After several years of discussions, the name "Taekwondo" was chosen in April 1955 by the board of masters of the various Kwans, and the kwans started to unify through the late 1950s.
1961 saw the creation of the Korea Taesoodo Association, which changed its name to Korea Taekwondo Association in 1965.

http://www.powerkixusa.com/history/history.htm
History of Tae Kwon Do Taekwondo instructors often recount the history of their art in rather vague terms. Describing it as a combination of Tae Kyon kicks and Karate strikes, they still refer to Taekwondo as a martial art that is "thousands of years old." While the supposed antiquity of the art is quite useful in squelching innovation by the lower ranks, it is also quite false. Taekwondo is actually only about 40 years old, and for a good portion of that time, it was simply an imitation of Shotokan karate. The youth of Taekwondo as we know it can be demonstrated through a discussion of Korean history since its occupation by Japan in 1905. For better or worse, twentieth century Korean martial artists have been greatly influenced by the Japanese. By 1900, Koreans had lost interest in their native martial arts but after the Japanese occupation of Korea, Japanese educational curricula was imposed on all Korean schools. This meant that all Korean boys were taught the sportive forms of Judo and Kendo while in school. However, this training came to an abrupt end in 1909, when the Japanese banned the practice of any fighting arts in Korea.

History of Taekwondo
The earliest records of Martial Arts practice in Korea date back to about 50 BC. These earliest forms are known as "Taek Kyon". Evidence that Martial Arts were being practiced at the time can be found in tombs where wall-paintings show two men in fighting-stance. Others reject this evidence and say that these men could be dancing. Back then there were three kingdoms:
  • Koguryo (37 BC - 668 AD) Paekje (18 BC - 600 AD) Silla (57 BC - 936 AD)
Silla unified the kingdoms after winning the war against Paekje in 668 AD and Koguryo in 670 AD. The Hwa Rang Do played an important role in this unification. The Hwa Rang Do was an elite group of young noble men, devoted to cultivating mind and body and serving the kingdom of Silla. The best translation for Hwa Rang is "flowering youth" (Hwa ="flower", Rang="young man"). The Hwa Rang Do had an honor-code and practiced various forms of martial arts, including Taekyon and Soo Bakh Do . The old honor-code of the Hwa Rang is the philosophical background of modern Taekwondo. What followed was a time of peace and the Hwa Rang turned from a military organization to a group specialized in poetry and music. It was in 936 AD when Wang Kon founded the Koryo dynasty, an abbreviation of Koguryo. The name Korea is derived from the name Koryo. During the Koryo Dynasty the sport Soo Bakh Do, which was then used as a military training method, became popular. During the Yi dynasty (1392 AD - 1910 AD) the emphasis on military training disappeared.

Background History of Taekwondo
Modern Taekwondo is actually derived from the long experience of ancient people in defending themselves against attacks of animals and enemies. As time passed, people picked up and developed more effective skills of their own in the use of their hands and legs in fighting, hence developing the primitive form of TaeKyon - an old name of Taekwondo.
Traditional Taekwondo
TaeKyon was practiced as early as 50 BC Korea, during this time, Korea was divided into three main kingdoms: Silla, Koguryo and Baekche. Paintings on the ceiling of the Muyong-chong, a royal tomb from the Koguryo dynasty, show that TaeKyon practitioners using techniques virtually identical to modern-day Taekwondo.
The Hwarang were a special warrior class, trained in a military academy initially founded for the young nobility of Silla, the society of the Hwarang-do ("the way of flowering manhood"). The academy adopted TaeKyon as part of its regular training program. Hwarang warriors were well-educated young men who were encouraged to travel far and wide in Korea to learn about the regions and the people; TaeKyon was thus spread to all parts of the country during the Silla dynasty, which lasted from AD 668 to AD 935. TaeKyon during that period of time, was designed primarily to promote fitness, and it was until the Koryo dynasty (935 - 1392), that the art was taught as a style of fighting.

The counter sniper unit practices for the winter Olympics security detail (CBS)
Mitt Romney, chief executive of the Salt Lake Olympics
(CBS) In 30 days, the 2002 Winter Olympic Games begin in Salt Lake City. An estimated 80,000 people a day will be crowding into venues to watch the competition. Another 3 billion worldwide are expected to be watching on TV.
Protecting the athletes, spectators and the games in what may be the largest security operation in U.S. history is the United States Secret Service, the same agency that protects the president. And this is not the only game the Secret Service is playing; they're also securing the Super Bowl, to be played in New Orleans just five days before the Olympics start.
CBS News Correspondent Scott Pelley recently toured Olympic venues with Secret Service Director Brian Stafford who, in his first interview since Sept. 11, said an Olympic terror threat is real, even though there's no known plot specifically targeting the games.
In fact, Stafford states categorically that terrorist initiatives have been foiled since September. "There have been events, initiatives, that have been thwarted," he told Pelley. "Could they have been directed at these games? Possibly. That's probably as close as I can come on that one."

WTSDA History
Legend has it that Boddidharma, a Buddhist monk, introduced martial arts to monks at the Shaolin Temple as a way to strengthen their bodies and minds. Chinese martial arts developed over the millennia into several different systems in use today. Grandmaster Hwang Kee studied Chuan Fa (Shaolin Boxing) as an exile in Manchuria during the Japanese occupation of Korea (1910-1945). Chuan Fa belongs to the weh ka ryu (external) system. In contrast, Tai Chi Chuan belongs to the neh ka ryu (internal) system. Gichin Funakoshi brought the Okinawinan system Shorei Ryu Karate Do to Tokyo in 1922. At the time, kara te do meant "Way of the China Hand." Because of Japanese nationalism, the word "kara=China" was substituted with the similar symbol "kara=open" in 1933 by Funakoshi. Japanese karate is therefore the "Way of the Open Hand." It was practiced under Sensei Funakoshi at the Shoto kan ("Pine Wave Gym"). A kan (Korean kwan) is a particular gym or training location, but also is used to label a martial arts school.

THE HISTORY OF
Martial Arts The Birth of Martial Arts
There are many fascinating ideas of where the Martial Arts actually came from, and they differ from Dojo to Dojo, system to system, and Sensei to Sensei. I have written this article through proper research, and understand that opinions may, and shall vary. The vast majority of Martial Arts systems in today's society give tribute to this history as the birth of Martial Arts. "The fighting techniques of China were subsequently carried to the offshore islands, most notably Okinawa, by waves of immigrants, refugees, and priests", according to Corcoran and Farkas. At this point the Okinawa people had already developed a "Weaponless Art" known as "Te" which was a direct result of the ban on carrying weapons issued by the Japanese occupation in 1470. Eventually, with the aid of these Chinese kung-fu masters, Te developed into a crude from of Kara-Te, which in the beginning translated to T'ang hand, or China-Hand. In the 20th century, Gichin Funokoshi introduced Okinawa-Te to Japan, and the actual name Karate was given to this system. Other countries, such as Korea, had developed their own systems of the arts. Korea developed Hwrang-Do, Tae Kwon Do (one of the most popular systems today), and Tang Soo Do. Korea is not alone in this instance, for many other countries have developed their own Martial Art systems. Although all Martial Art systems vary in technique from school to school, and instructor to instructor, we can all rest assured that the majority of the Martial Arts systems being taught today attribute their birth to that one, single buddist priest named Bodhidharma.
