Taekwondo is a great martial art to practice, a martial art that might just come in handy in some rough situations. Of course one of the main purposes of Taekwondo is to teach you various different ways of defending yourself. Obviously one of the first rules of Taekwondo is to only use it for sport, for sparring, or for self-defense, but never for offensive purposes. Well, sometimes things go south and some people may threaten you. There are bullies and robbers all over this world, and sometimes the only way to deal with them is to physically defend yourself.
