Taekwondo is a martial art of Korean origin. “Taekwondo” is a Korean term which “tae” means foot, “kwon” means hand and “do” means the way. The way of the hand and foot. It is an ancient art that is used for physical exercise, self defense, sport application, and career advancement in film and movie production.
 
Traditional Taekwondo emphasizes the complete development of the student in Mind and Body. Oh Ryung Hon style of Taekwondo incorporates a mix of different styles of martial arts within the basic Taekwondo system. Development of life skills such as stress management, self esteem, focus, and self discipline help our students achieve their personal goals both inside and outside of the dojo. The class exercises not only teach our students how to defend themselves, but lead to improved fitness, weight loss, muscle conditioning, improved flexibility, and improved cardiovascular condition.
Upon achieving the level of First Degree Black Belt, our students enter the college of Taekwondo in which they choose a major to concentrate in. Such majors include weapons training specialist, advanced tournament competition specialist, self defense career training (executive body guarding, security guard, etc.), forms technician and development, and Instructor training/school management to name a few.
The ADULTS PROGRAM classes are 45 minutes long and include stretching, warm-up drills, interactive drills, self defense training, point sparring, weapons training, board breaking, and energy work.
