Taekwondo for seniors: a fun way to boost balance and brain power?

This study looked at whether a 10-week Taekwondo program could improve physical and mental function in adults over 60. Forty participants either took Taekwondo classes twice a week or continued their normal routine. Researchers measured balance, strength, fitness, and thinking skills before and after the program, with a one-year follow-up to see if any benefits lasted.
