What is the WTF?
The WTF stands for the World Taekwondo Federation. Formed in 1973, the WTF is the largest martial arts organization in the world, and is the governing body for Taekwondo worldwide. The WTF is the parent organization for the United States Taekwondo Union (USTU), which is the national governing body for the WTF in the United States. The WTF is also the governing organization for Taekwondo in the Olympics. While the WTF has remained the largest and most successful, there also are other organizations that teach different styles of Taekwondo. ITF and ATA are examples of such organizations.
