Though the name taekwondo has only been used since 1955 when it was first developed by various Korean martial artists in the 1940s and 1950s as a combination of indigenous Korean styles of fighting such as taekkyeon, subak and gwonbeop with a touch of other foreign martial arts such as Chinese martial arts and karate. The roots of this martial art began about 2300 years ago in Korea.
