TO NEW STUDENTS:

Master Cho, our club's co-founder, generously volunteers his own time and energy to train club members free of charge, provided they commit to participating in competition. Since Master Cho's business, C.W. Tae Kwon Do, is an independent contractor for the Cornell physical education program, students who wish to receive training from Master Cho must register for the Tae Kwon Do physical education class. It is not required that club members enroll in the physical education class, but it is recommended.

Cornell Sport Tae Kwon Do is open to all students. Due to the risks involved in Tae Kwon Do sparring competition, it is highly recommended that students receive training in Tae Kwon Do sparring before entering in competition, whether it be from C.W. Tae Kwon Do or elsewhere.

TO CURRENT STUDENTS:

The C.W. Tae Kwon Do curriculum has changed. Current students are expected to learn the curriculum changes and adjust accordingly. The changes can be found here.
