About
Our Tae Kwon Do style originates with the Chung Do Kwan in South Korea. We practice no-contact sparring. Our goal is to practice at full speed and power without hurting our sparring partner(s). Our Chief Instructor Jim Goldsmith (5th Dan Black Belt) was originally a student with Grandmaster Duk Sung Son for over 28 years. Grandmaster Son was the president of the World Tae Kwon Do Association headquarted in NYC until his retirement and ultimately his death.
Our classes consist of practicing basic techniques (blocks, kicks, punches), forms or katas, no-contact sparring, 3-step sparring, as well as other drills and self-defense techniques.
