DIRECTOR / INSTRUCTORABOUT TAE KWON DO
Tae Kwon Do implies a philosophical means of discipline. Thus, Tae Kwon Do is a way of disciplining the mind and the body through a fighting method.

Kwon - to smash with fist or hand
Do - The way or method.
THE TENETS OF TAE KWON DO:
The tenets of Tae Kwon Do should serve as a guide for all serious students.
- Courtesy - Politeness of manners
- Integrity - The state of being entire; honesty; uprightness.
- Perseverance - Continuing firmly in a state or action in spite of obstacles or objections.
- Self-Control - Control over oneself, temper, emotions, and desires.

Membership Oath:
I, as a U.S. Taekwon Do member, pledge:
To be loyal to my nation and to my parents
To respect my seniors and show courtesy to my juniors
To be righteous and show good conduct
To develop leadership with Tae Kwon Do Tenets.
Student Attitude:
It is very important for the student to maintain a positive attitude while learning Tae Kwon Do, and give the instructor full attention during the class. This is very important to the development of concentration. The class time is relatively short and the student must try to retain as much instruction as possible in order to progress.
Tae Kwon Do is an art, which could be potentially dangerous. It is therefore, very important that the student maintain a serious frame of mind during practice inside and outside of the dojang.
The main purpose of Tae Kwon Do is the mental, physical, and spiritual development of the student. One’s training must not be used to hurt or inflict injury on another person unless all peaceful attempts have been made and failed.

US TaeKwonDo is a great place to learn TaeKwonDo, Hapkido, and Self-Defense. My son has studied under Master Kim for seven years, since starting Kindergarten. He is now a junior instructor, and is close to earning his 3rd dan black belt. I also credit Master Kim's influence for encouraging my son to be a straight-A student. US TKD picks up from the local schools, which was really convenient for my family since my wife and I both work.
