New Book Announcement: Taekwon-Do Kicks – Volume One

I’m proud to share some exciting news — my new book is here!

Taekwon-Do Kicks – Volume One: Techniques, Strength & Flexibility, White to Blue Belt is now available for preorder.

As many of you know, Taekwon-Do is celebrated worldwide for its dynamic kicking techniques. But for students just beginning their martial arts journey, mastering these fundamental kicks is more than just a skill — it’s the foundation of becoming an effective martial artist.

That’s why I wrote this book.

Drawing on nearly 30 years of experience as a martial artist and coach, I wanted to create a resource that takes readers step by step through the essential Taekwon-Do kicks, while also addressing the strength, mobility, and flexibility needed to perform them safely and powerfully.

What’s Inside the Book

• Step-by-step instruction for all fundamental kicks from white to blue belt

• Clear illustrations and photographs to guide your technique

• Practical drills and exercises to build strength, mobility, and agility

• Dynamic stretching routines to prepare your body for training

• Static stretches to support flexibility and recovery

• Tips on adapting techniques to your unique body and training needs

This isn’t just a technical manual — it’s a complete guide to building the physical foundations that will carry you through your Taekwon-Do journey.

Who Is This Book For?

• Students who want to improve their kicks with confidence and precision

• Instructors looking for structured resources to support their teaching

• Martial artists interested in strengthening and conditioning their bodies for higher-level performance

Whether you’re stepping into the dojang for the first time, or looking to refine your foundations, this book will help you start improving your kicks from the ground up.
