 Thank you for visiting the home page for the ITF-USA, the official governing body for the International Taekwon-Do Federation in the United States. Our mission, as a non-profit and democratically-structured organization, is to foster the teaching and art of traditional Taekwon-Do in the United States, as handed down by our founder General Choi, Hong Hi.
Taekwon-Do has undergone tremendous evolution since its inception at the hands of General Choi in 1955 as he perfected the art while leading the 29th Division of the Korean Army (also known as The First Division)...

Sparring Seminar With
David Kerr
On July 16-17, 2010 nearly 100 participants took part in an intensive 2-day Sparring Course with 4-time World Champion, Sa bum David Kerr . The seminar hosted by Sa bum Marcello F. Cancelliere of Red Tiger Tkd and the ITF-USA covered Conditioning, Strategy, Timing, Counter Attacking and Speed and was attended by ITF-USA Members from all over the East Coast as well Canada. Sa bum Kerr not only taught many of the fundamentals that have made him one of the ITF's best competitors but also demonstrated all of the techniques that have made him so successful. His combination of knowledge, attention to detail, speed, power and passion for teaching made for an extraordinary seminar.
"I was impressed by his energy, knowledge and passion. Here was a 4 time World Champion that demonstrated an amount of humility not readily seen in today's elite althletes", states Sa bum Marcello F. Cancelliere. "He communicated with the junior belts and children as easily as he did with members of the US National Team. It was truly a learning experience that we would love to experience again in the near future."

In the past, this booklet has allowed us to sponsor record-sized teams to this prestigious international event, to represent the United States on the world stage in fine fashion, and to establish a foundation that we will continue to build upon. In addition, it brought visibility and support to our sponsors from our membership – a true “win-win” effort. 
The booklet will be a professionally-produced, four-color piece including photos of the team and competitors, select highlight photos from the events, results, information on Taekwon-Do and the World Championships, and advertisements from our supporters and sponsors. The booklet will be distributed throughout our member schools around the country, as well as at regional events held around the country including tournaments, seminars, etc.
 
The cover and one of the pages from the 2007 WC booklet.
The entire ITF-USA Board of Directors, would like to ask that you participate in this year's ITF World Championship Commemorative Booklet to support our US Team and to increase your visibility with our membership.
