We offer Traditional and Olympic Taekwondo instruction for children and adults, taught by certified Blackbelt instructors. Students are placed into classes according to age and ability, and encouraged to progress at their own pace in a safe, enjoyable atmosphere. Our facility is air conditioned, fully stocked, and includes 23x50 ft. padded mat floor.
Our youth classes emphasize respect for others, taking responsibility for your actions, and trying your best. Fostering the ability to concentrate and focus helps our students to become more successful in everything from schoolwork to sports. Our program combines safety awareness education with self-defense instruction in a fun, structured environment. Non-aggressive ways of resolving conflicts are continually addressed, as well as lures strangers use to attract and abduct children.
The curriculum is divided with the practice of Forms (patterns) and traditional technique during the first part of the week. During the latter half of the week, we offer a rotating self-defense curriculum which includes sparring and defensive grappling training. The general kicks, specific techniques and drills are covered accordingly. Our colored "Gup" Belt level achievement platform (a specified number of steps to Black belt rank) includes a detailed list of material for progression.
Promotional examinations, which allow students to test for their next Belt rank level, are held five times per year. The colored-belt system is not a basis for comparison between students and their skill level. Rather, it is a symbol of individual achievement, dedication, hard physical work, and a good attitude.
Our students are also given the opportunity to participate in one of the newest Olympic sports. Some of the benefits of Taekwondo competition include learning to form successful strategies for self-defense, demonstrating their grace and poise under pressure, and gaining a sense of accomplishment as goals are met.
No prior martial arts experience is necessary. Spectators are welcome and Beginners may join at any time.
Locally owned and operated since 1993 (formerly of NVLA and Salvador Elementary School Programs), we offer in-house, International Blackbelt Certification,.

I will develop myself in a positive manner, and avoid anything that could reduce my mental growth or physical health.
I will develop self-discipline in order to bring out the best in myself and others.
I will use common sense before self-defense, and never be abusive or offensive.
