I would consider Taekwondo to be a modern martial art with traditional elements.

The traditional elements might include the uniform/belt, poomse, and rituals associated with the conducting of training.

Yet we are modern, too, in age and in the fact that we are willing to adapt and develop new techniques or strategies.
