# NeoDo Taekwondo Academy
NeoDo Taekwondo Academy is a London-based martial arts training centre that combines traditional Taekwondo discipline with contemporary sports science methodology. The academy serves young athletes and aspiring martial artists seeking structured, evidence-based instruction rather than conventional training approaches.
The academy distinguishes itself through its unique blend of heritage and innovation. Co-founded by Dr Emek Can, a 2nd Dan Black Belt with over 20 years' experience and a PhD in Sports Sciences, and Dr Samet Şahin, the academy leverages advanced performance analysis tools to optimise athletic development. This scientific approach sets NeoDo apart from traditional academies, enabling instructors to identify talent, track progress objectively, and tailor training programmes to individual needs.
The core philosophy—"Tradition with Innovation"—guides every aspect of training. Whilst maintaining Taekwondo's foundational values of discipline, respect and self-awareness, NeoDo implements modern coaching techniques and performance metrics. The academy's branding reflects this philosophy: the logo features a modernised Taekwondo belt forming an infinity symbol, signifying continuous growth and evolution.
NeoDo targets young athletes interested in competitive Taekwondo, recreational participants seeking self-development, and those pursuing belt progression. The academy's emphasis on confidence building, focus development and talent identification appeals to parents wanting comprehensive martial arts education beyond basic technique instruction. By marrying scientific rigour with traditional martial arts principles, NeoDo offers a contemporary alternative to conventional Taekwondo training.
