The foundation of our school is Tae Kwon Do, but we are not limited to just one art. We have incorporated grappling and many other various art forms into our school. This not only helps for competitions, but also helps us to have the knowledge to defend ourselves, if needed, in our everyday lives.
Tae Kwon Do skills are based upon 4 parts. These parts are Katas(forms), Sparring, self-defense, and board breaking. We have also included grappling (groundwork). Within these lessons, you will find that respect, discipline, confidence, and character building is a large part of Martial Arts.
