Grandmaster Chong has taught Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido for over 35 years and his system has proven to be an excellent all around method of teaching martial arts and promoting health and self-confidence.. Our goals in teaching martial arts are simple but essential to the way of life: Respect. Respect plays a major part in the practice of martial arts. A martial artist has the proper respect for country, master, instructors, senior ranks, dojang (“house of discipline,” AKA martial arts school) and self to be a good example. This attitude of respect will be taught to each student training in our studio. Discipline. This is another important asset a student gains in martial arts. The discipline to follow through, commit to a goal, and persevere through all challenges and setbacks. It is essential that students practice on a regular weekly basis and that they follow the instructions given by instructor in class. A part of training is to instill discipline which will remain forever as part of a person's lifestyle, helping to achieve goals and to excel in other activities. Persistence. All great leaders have a strong sense of discipline and understand the importance of persistence. Parents must understand that their children will benefit with consistent training and discipline in the dojang. Unless the person is injured or ill, it is best to work out at least three times per week.
