Kukkiwon

kikkiwon DAN Certificate

The word Kukkiwon refers to the home of Taekwondo in Seoul, South Korea. It is where the heart of taekwondo beats. The Kukkiwon is a government-sponsored national academy for taekwondo. Both the building itself and the organization therein are colloquially referred to as the Kukkiwon. The Kukkiwon is the official governing body established by the South Korean government for taekwondo. To compete in national-level and international tournaments sponsored by the world taekwondo federation, generally speaking, one must hold a Kukkiwon-issued Dan certificate. For people who practice this style of taekwondo, the Kukkiwon is the organization that issues Dan (black belt) certificates and id cards. At IGNITE Martial Arts your Black Belt will be held through the Kukkiwon. To learn more click here.
