Alejandro Pereira established the CFTP with a considerable amount of hard work and dedication after discovering that Martial Arts gave him the balance he was missing in the areas of his life such as culture and education. When he saw his own personal results in studying and practicing Taekwondo he realized that he wanted to help others become more balanced in their lives in order to achieve their own personal goals.

Through much perseverance, he started a school in Paraguay called the Central Family Protection Program and soon after he started the Canadian Family Taekwondo Program in Toronto. In 1991, he registered the schools in both South America and Canada as the Canadian Family Taekwondo Program.

In 1993, Alejandro started to create his own system with his own instructional group. He created his own style because he wanted the Martial Arts Philosophy to relate back to its origins in all aspects again. He wanted the Taekwondo taught in his schools to support spirituality, physical fitness and community so that those who would study Taekwondo with him would soon realize that they are part of a very large family.

His association has grown to 16 schools in South America and now in Canada he has 2 schools. In the future Alejandro hopes that more schools will open and that the CFTP will continue to grow.
