These are guidelines to aid you in everyday life, not just in the Do-Jang. We can only achieve truth and happiness when we take care of ourselves and use the wisdom and power which nature has given us. Instead of depending on material things, our Tae Kwon Do training is based on a strict moral code, the mind and body are considered more important that material possessions.

Our country is our very soul and we must always strive to be loyal.

Loyalty to Parents:

We must honor our parents in order that our children may honor us.

Marital Fidelity:

Husband and wife should be considered one. Life without love has no dignity.

There is no substitute for the wisdom and experience of the old, they should be cared for and honored.

Respect for Siblings:

Your brother and sister deserve to be helped, encouraged and treated with kindness by you and by others.

Respect for Teachers:

Teachers must do their best for their students, and in return the students will give loyalty and respect.
