is their any weapons in tae kwon do?

im jus wondering,is their any weapons in tae kwon do,like nunchucks,daggers,swords etc. im new to martial arts...

Many Tae kwon do dojangs to not teach the use of weapons although there are some styles of TKD that do train and incorporate many traditional weapons used by other martial arts into their practice.

 

We have had staff (bo) and nunchaku training at our school offered as special training "worshops". Training with weapons does give the students an understanding of body dynamics, alignment, and how to generate power and increase reaction speed.

our TKD class doesnt teach weapons. i dont think (and this is may not be fact) that traditional TKD had weapons.

Traditional TKD doesn't use weapons other than your hands and feet

my tae kwon do dojang teaches stick fighting in red belt and i dunno but i think they also teach us to use nun chucks because i saw some nun chucks near the equipment area...

There are no weapons in the traditional TKD curriculum. That doesn't mean that there aren't TKD teachers who teach weapons. But there are plenty of TKD teachers who started in another art, crosstrain, etc, and have brought those weapons in from another system.

 

Most popular are probably the nunchaku, short stick, staff, and sword. In some places Haedong Gumdo (Korean equivalent to Kendo/Iaido) is taught with TKD.

 

Many Hapkido folks teach the cane and rope. Many Schools teach both.. etc.

my dojang dosnt teach any wepons except we have Kumdo classes if you dont no the korean art of sword fighting , almost same as the japanese . other then that we dont have any wepons

mt class teaches weapons

 

in the ancient days where the background of TKD came from they practiced weapons, but as the art had to go into hidding and became a sport, it lost the emphasis on weapons

 

yet the styles that went into hidding and trained in the mountains away from spectaters still practiced with weapons, yet this style is not as widely known as the sport based style of TKD

my school teaches the:

 

sai

 

bo--

 

and then some people learn kali, kamas, and nunchucks

Only arnis up to BB, then Bo and any other weapons of choice. All schools differ in this aspect though.
