The University of Pennsylvania Tae Kwon Do Club (ITF) is one of the oldest student martial arts groups at Penn, founded by a (then) medical student, Anthony D'Amico in 1985. It is currently led by several of his students, black belts and master black belts, who continue to offer Penn students, Tae Kwon Do in a traditional setting which emphasizes both mental and physical conditioning. Classes are available to students approximately three times a week, and are intended to challenge the body physically through aerobic and muscular conditioning while using the energy generated to create a better awareness of mental focus and control. Students are encouraged to apply this deeper focus and awareness both inside and outside the training room - into their campus experience. Through the mastering of forms and techniques, Tae Kwon Do encourages individual growth and enlightenment within a NON-competitve environment. We encourage individual achievement in a group-supporting environment where students are given equal opportunity to better themselves in both martial arts and their life pursuits.
