About Jung’s Taekwondo

Grandmaster Jung has devoted his entire life to Tae Kwon Do, and he wants to share his knowledge with everyone. Absolutely anyone can take Tae Kwon Do, regardless of age, sex, background, and/or disabilities. For those who have taken the journey themselves, Tae Kwon Do is a way of life.

Grandmaster Jung teaches five “tenets,” or basic beliefs, that all students learn and observe in their daily life. Each of them has equal importance. The five tenets are:  
  • Courtesy
  • Integrity
  • Perseverance
  • Self-Control
  • Indomitable Spirit

OUR STYLE

Unlike the competitive Olympic-style Tae Kwon Do that is shown on TV, Grandmaster Woo Jin Jung’s style has evolved from the traditional style taught in Korea, to a style now known as “family style,” which not only emphasizes the techniques as the traditional style, but also adds other teaching elements to boost the students’ confidence, coordination, weight control, and to give them an opportunity to make friends with other students from all around the United States. The aim of Jung’s Tae Kwon Do is to offer a safe, controlled atmosphere that students can come to and practice the rapidly spreading art of Tae Kwon Do.

Tae Kwon Do

Taekwondo is a traditional Korean martial art, characterized by its emphasis on head-height kicks, jumping and spinning kicks, and fast kicking techniques. Taekwondo emphasizes kicking because the leg is the longest and strongest tool the martial artist has readily available. While punching techniques are used in sparring and forms, the legs are trained in much greater detail. Because of this, Taekwondo is popular with both men and women independent of age or size. Speed, endurance, grace, and flexibility are all of benefit to a Taekwondo artist.
