Why is Taekwondo called the ultimate course in "sensory training"
Sensory Integration (SI for short) refers to the neuropsychological process in which the brain selects, interprets, connects and unifies the sensory information input by individuals from different sensory channels such as vision, hearing, touch, smell and vestibule, and is the basis of individuals' daily life, study and work.

The training content in Taekwondo is comprehensive, because Taekwondo includes routine, actual combat, stunt, smash, body protection, Taekwondo dance, physical fitness and other training subjects. It is suitable for children and teenagers to practice and learn from children with sensory impairment and physical disharmony. It is the best exercise, not only to keep fit, but also to defend yourself. So what sensory help does Taekwondo have?
