Why do you want to train martial arts? Without a goal it's hard to tell if TKD can be for you. Is it impressive? Athletic? Sure. For me personally I'm not a fan of the focus on kicks that is due to the WTF ruleset. Why? I like to also punch, grapple, throw, do weapon work etc. and even if self defense is totally not in my focus the high kicks, lack of a proper guard etc. are not for me.
