To provide a vehicle for the mental, emotional, and physical development of all those involved.
Here at the Asheville Academy of Taekwondo, we feel that training in the martial arts should provide so much more than just learning to kick and punch. Our training programs also offer a good physical fitness program that includes a system of self defense training.
In addition to physical fitness and martial arts training our programs include an opportunity to develop one’s self mentally and emotionally as well. And, not only can this happen for the student but, also for the family member(s) who is there to support the student(s).
