| The World Traditional Taekwondo Union (WTTU) was founded by
Eternal Grand Master H.U. Lee in the fall of 1990. The WTTU
is a branch of the Songahm Taekwondo family that also consists
of the American Taekwondo Association (ATA) and the Songahm
Taekwondo Federation (STF). The ATA encompasses member schools
in the United States and the STF includes member schools in
South America. The WTTU covers the remaining portion of the
world.
The continuing vision for this organization is to unite martial
artists worldwide in an organization that emphasizes "Traditional
Values," while utilizing the most advanced concepts and
philosophies in the classroom and in business. The WTTU allows
the instructor to focus more clearly in all four areas of
the martial arts business with proven programs in marketing,
sales, instruction, and business management.
At this time, the WTTU has schools in Canada, England, Portugal,
Germany, South Africa, Guam, Japan, Sweden, and South Korea.
Growth in the WTTU has been consistent and rapid since its
inception.
Our current Grand Master, Soon Ho Lee, knows that school
and club owners from all over the world are looking for communication,
support, and education. There are several methods that Grand
Master Lee uses to provide these services.
Members of the ATA/WTTU/STF staff travel extensively around
the globe to provide training in all areas.
Each year, Grand Master Lee hosts the Songahm Taekwondo World
Championships. This week-long event provides training in Songahm
Taekwondo, instructional methods, and business practices.
The Way of Traditional Taekwondo, the official WTTU magazine.
This gives the WTTU an excellent vehicle to communicate, exchange
ideas, and to announce new programs, services, seminars, and
events, as the magazine has done for ATA/STF members for more
than 12 years.
The ATA website is another method that Grand Master Lee uses
to keep in consistent contact with current WTTU members as
well as encouraging communication with prospective members.
