The ancient Art of Tae-Kyon is now widely dispersed throughout the world and known as various forms of Tae Kwon Do.

The definition of Rhee Tae Kwon Do involves dynamic techniques of unarmed combat for self-defensive purposes, combining the skilled application of powerful punches, flying kicks, blocks, dodges and interceptions. The Rhee Tae kwon do practitioner uses well-trained hands, arms and feet to effect the rapid immobilisation of any attacker.

Master Rhee is the official Founder of Tae Kwon Do in Australia; the Master Instructor and Chief Instructor for Australia and New Zealand and Past-President of the Tae Kwon Do instructors Federation of Australia and New Zealand.
