About the association

The Odisha Taekwondo Association is the state body for the sport. District associations, dojangs, coaches, referees and players across Odisha are affiliated through us.

We keep the state membership register, license coaches and referees, and organise the state championships. The association is registered as a sports society under the Societies Registration Act XXI of 1860.

The five tenets every student learns

Courtesy (Ye-ui)

Respect for masters, seniors, training partners and opponents, on and off the mat.

Integrity (Yeom-chi)

Honesty, moral courage and fair play in every bout and every grading.

Perseverance (In-nae)

Keep training through the hard weeks until the technique is right.

Self-control (Geuk-gi)

Control over temper, action and strength, inside the dojang and outside it.

Indomitable spirit (Baekjeol-bulgul)

Courage in front of any obstacle, and getting up again after a defeat.
