Great Book for Beginners November 8, 2008
J. Fraser
This is the only taekwondo book I own and it has served me very well. The section on stretching is wonderful. The photos, in general, are great. I refer to it regularly, especially the chapter covering the poomsae. I feel that this book has the right balance for anyone in their first year of taekwondo: clear instruction, great photos, and enough depth to give a feel for the subject.
Great book, great man, I love my dad... January 3, 2008

Tae Kwon Do Basics, Techniques and Forms: The Indomitable Martial Art of Korea
This book was a long time coming and I'm proud that our father's technique is being shared in this book. The hope is that many would be able to learn from this book and instill confidence, self-discipline and self-respect in those that choose to practice it.
Congratulations and Happy New Year!
Book for any TaeKwonDo student December 29, 2007
Violet Dupree
I really enjoyed learning from this book. There are so many Martial Arts books out these days, it's hard to find one that is really good. After looking at many books, I found that the author is the most qualified teacher in the TaeKwonDo world. Grandmaster Park is the best by far! Great Book!!!
