However, Tae Kwon Do often becomes a lifestyle, a practice that graces each day of the martial artist’s life. Because of its accessibility and relationship to all areas of life, Tae Kwon Do is the strongest and most effective martial art in the world. Tae Kwon Do is more physical and aggressive than “soft” martial arts like Tai Chi, which relies more on inner stillness than on physical force. However, Tae Kwon Do incorporates a fair amount of meditation and awareness techniques, including attention paid to ethics. Therefore, it far surpasses physically stunning arts such as Capoiera and even some forms of Karate. Tae Kwon Do comprises the physical, the mental, and the spiritual arenas, making it one of the most thorough and well-rounded martial arts in the world today. Likewise, it is steeped in a rich historical and cultural tradition unlike some other more modern and amalgamated martial arts like Russian Sambo.
Tae Kwon Do embraces tradition even as it adapts itself for the modern world of competitive sports. After its inclusion in the Olympics, Tae Kwon Do retained its allegiance to core principles and remains removed from the plethora of other martial arts traditions like Judo. Based on Jiu Jutsu, Judo is also an Olympic sport. However, Judo involves far more grappling and potentially harmful moves than Tae Kwon Do does. Participants frequently get thrown, choked, and held in dangerous joint locks. Judo comprises strikes and grapples, but the combination lacks grace and finesse. On the other hand, Tae Kwon Do combines physically challenging kicks with advanced foot work and blocking techniques that makes for a stunning visual display. Emphasis in Tae Kwon Do is more on the self than on conquering the opponent, although competitive martial arts always involve some form of aggression. However, Tae Kwon Do is certainly safer than Judo, Jiu Jutsu, Thai kickboxing, or any other number of physically-focused martial arts.
