North Pole Martial Arts
Dear Prospective Member,
Thank you for inquiring about membership in a HTF Taekwondo Center. “HTF” stands for Hwa-Rang Taekwondo Federation. If you are not familiar with the word
“Taekwondo”, it is a Korean martial art. Because of its widespread popularity and extreme effectiveness, many Americans refer to Taekwondo as “super karate”.
Taekwondo was introduced in this country over 40 years ago and brought with it over 1400 years of history and tradition. There are currently over 15 affiliated schools and
clubs in the Hwa-Rang Taekwondo Federation with more than 1,500 members participating in our program. The HTF is one of the fastest growing martial arts organizations
on the west coast of the United States.
In Taekwondo, one gains increased flexibility, strength, timing and coordination – all while acquiring a valuable means of self-defense. The HTF version of the Chang Hun Ryu
style of forms is both dynamic and powerful. These forms are the foundation of both a teaching system and student development.
Each and every HTF Taekwondo Center is owned and operated by an HTF black belt instructor who has not only achieved this coveted level of proficiency, but has received
extensive education and training to become a certified instructor. The quality of instruction at a HTF affiliated school can be summarized in one word: Professionalism.
Many people begin Taekwondo for various reasons. If you are seeking a better physical appearance, increased athletic ability, self-defense training or just more self-
confidence, Taekwondo can help you achieve these goals. We wish you success and we hope the attached material will answer questions you have concerning your training.
Sincerely
Master Instructor
Master Phillip J. Jones
