Traditional and Authentic
When Grandmaster Ye Mo Ahn established Ahn’s Tae Kwon Do, he intentionally replicated the instructional methods he received in Seoul, Korea from one of Tae Kwon Do’s founding fathers. This is Tae Kwon Do taught as it was originally designed, not a modernized or diluted version.
Training at Ahn’s Tae Kwon Do is not about collecting belts. It is about committing to a long-term process that develops discipline, technique, focus, and character. Students learn why techniques work, not just how to perform them.
This approach demands effort, consistency, and respect for the art. In return, students gain a depth of understanding and ability that cannot be rushed or manufactured.
A Hard-Core School with High Standards
A black belt at Ahn’s Tae Kwon Do cannot be obtained easily or quickly. Students are expected to work hard, challenge themselves, and take responsibility for their progress.
Training includes:
Aerobic conditioning
Complex and powerful kicking techniques
Structured sparring
Board breaking that requires focus, speed, and precision
While instruction is demanding, safety is always paramount. Ahn’s Tae Kwon Do has an excellent safety record and has successfully trained students of many ages and physical abilities, including individuals with limited mobility.
Minor bumps and bruises may occur during serious training, but instruction is controlled, supervised, and intentional.
If you are looking for a school where black belts are guaranteed or rushed, Ahn’s Tae Kwon Do is not the right fit. If you want to earn something real, it is.
