Tang Soo Do is a unique Martial Art, originating in Korea. Because of the influence of occupation by both China and Japan, Tang Soo Do can also be described as a Korean expression of an Okinawan art based soundly on Chinese principles of movement.  It is a method of empty hand and foot fighting based on the scientific use of the body.  The development of superior kicking is a feature of Tang Soo Do, the advanced flying and jumping kicks are unsurpassed by any other Martial Arts system.  Through intensive mental and physical training; Tang Soo Do nurtures harmony between mind and body.  The ultimate goal of Tang Soo Do is character development and its practice improves self discipline, commitment, self confidence, self control, integrity and respect.

Tang Soo Do is essentially an Art of Self Defense.  Moreover, Tang Soo Do helps to develop healthy, physically fit and well-adjusted individuals. It gives you security and peace of mind from knowing how to defend yourself.  The training methods are designed to develop muscle tone, weight control, cardiovascular endurance, coordination and flexibility.  Tang Soo Do is a life time activity for all ages, it’s a great stress reliever and it’s never out of season.

Anyone can learn Tang Soo Do.  People of all ages are encouraged to become involved with this unique Martial Art.  Children may start at the age of four.  Our programs are nationally recognized and we have a special designed training curriculum for children.  We don’t simply teach “Kick and Punch”, we teach Confidence!  Parents constantly remark about the tremendous improvement in attitude and in school performance since enrolling their children in our program.  Our students develop the ‘Yes I Can’ attitude.

Progress is measured by the award of a color belt through our unique ranking system in accordance with the knowledge, skill, time and effort a student has dedicated to the program. Students are invited to attend bi-monthly testing cycles once they have met the criteria for their next rank. Starting with white belt a student matures through a change of seasons with green (spring), red (summer) and midnight blue (fall) belts.  The midnight blue belt is unique to Tang Soo Do/Soo Bahk Do and is equivalent to a black belt used by other styles.  Gold and orange belts are intermediate steps to green belt serving as additional incentive in the first year of training.
