MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine Taekwondo Association is hopeful of developing more successful youngsters in the country’s most popular martial art as it stages the 2019 Smart/MVPSF taekwondo summer class starting today in all its affiliates nationwide.

Taekwondo is regarded as the best exercise for physical conditioning, alertness and self protection against all odds.  Makati Rep. and PTA secretary general Monsour del Rosario, a former national and international champion, says knowledge in unarmed defense is far better than acquiring a deadly weapon.

The PTA, an affiliate of the World Taekwondo Federation, Philippine Sports Commission and the Philippine Olympic Committee, has come out with the list of regional headquarters and contact persons interested parties may call to join the event.

Enrollment is still going on.

Details: PTA at tel. nos. 522-0518/522-0519/524-0457 or email: [email protected]/[email protected].

The summer program is also supported by PLDT, Meralco, PSC, POC  and Milo.
