About Taekwondo
Taekwondo is a nonaggressive system of self-defense and self-discipline that has become one of the world’s most popular and successful martial arts while preserving the culture and traditions of the Korean people and officially developed as a unified style of martial arts in the 1950s. The roots of Taekwondo stretch back nearly 5,000 years incorporating elements of many traditional Korean martial arts as a martial arts style Taekwondo is characterized by head-height kicks, jumping and spinning kicks, fast kicks, and other techniques. Students recite an oath to respect their instructors and seniors, to stand up for freedom and justice, to build a more peaceful world, and to never misuse Taekwondo. Taekwondo cultivates mental strength as well as physical fitness and teaches students to use knowledge as well as internal power. Students learn the Taekwondo tenets of courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit.

Our Mission
Cho’s Black Belt Academy is committed to providing quality martial arts instruction to each and every student. We teach the traditional Moo Duk Kwan style of Taekwondo. This is the first style of Taekwondo that was started after Korea broke free of the occupation of Japan.
Taekwondo means “The Way of Fist and Foot Fighting.” Although an ancient and once secret Korean art of weaponless self-defense, it is now a Korean sport in which either two persons practice methods of unarmed fighting or one person can exercise for both physical fitness and self-defense. Still primarily a defensive art of self-protection, Taekwondo has in the past four decades also rapidly developed as an injury-free international competitive sport.
The Taekwondo master teaches the importance of both physical and mental conditioning by building up his student’s self-confidence, self-respect, and self-discipline. Form practice helps the student with reflex action, speed, stance, concentration, focus, power, and more, and is a pleasure to watch the beautiful movements.
Although knowing valuable self-defense skills generates a tremendous sense of security, the true martial artist should be able to walk away from a potential or threatening fight situation without a loss of self-esteem; moreover, ego gratification is never required. Ultimately, the sound mind in a sound body will succeed at its life’s calling.
