The Taekwondo student oath is recited at the beginning of a class while facing
the flags and the right hand raised. One person will lead the class line by line,
and the rest will repeat after.
The purpose of the student oath is to remind students of their obligations to
their art, instructors, fellow students, people outside of their school, and to
society at large.
OATH
I shall observe the tenets of TaeKwon-Do
I shall respect my instructors and my seniors
I shall never misuse TaeKwon-Do
I shall be a champion of freedom and justice
I shall build a more peaceful world
