🥋 Chuck Norris nous a quittés hier à 86 ans.
On a tous ri des « Chuck Norris Facts ». Lui aussi, d'ailleurs — jusqu'à un certain point. 😄
Mais au-delà du mème, n'oublions pas l'essentiel : Chuck Norris était ceinture noire de taekwondo, et ses coups de pied dévastateurs au cinéma ? Directement inspirés de notre art martial. Pour des générations entières, c'est lui qui a fait connaître le taekwondo bien avant les JO et les championnats du monde.
Il n'était pas taekwondoka de compétition, mais il en a été un formidable ambassadeur — peut-être sans le savoir.
Merci Chuck. Tu n'as pas fondé notre dojang, mais tu as peut-être donné l'envie à plus d'un de chercher le sien. 🙏

Today we say goodbye to a legend 🕊️🥋
The world of martial arts and cinema pays tribute to Chuck Norris, who passed away on March 19, 2026, at the age of 86 in Hawaii, surrounded by his family 🤍🌺
Before becoming an icon of action films, Norris forged his path on the tatami. He was a six-time world middleweight karate champion 🥇 and developed his own system, Chun K*k Do, based on a synthesis of styles such as Tang Soo Do, karate, and taekwondo. His discipline, precision, and martial spirit made him a global reference 🌍🥋
Taekwondo found in him one of its greatest ambassadors. Through cinema, he brought its techniques, kicks, and philosophy to millions of people around the world 🎬⚡ inspiring generations to approach this martial art.
From Mundotaekwondo, we recognize his legacy as one of the great promoters of taekwondo beyond the dojang 🙏 His influence transcended borders, screens, and generations.
His strength was not only in his strikes, but in his character, his ethics, and his ability to inspire 💫
Rest in peace, Master 🕊️🥋
Your legacy lives on in every kick, in every fight, and in every practitioner who honors the martial path 🙇♂️
