What is Youn Wha Ryu - Tae Kwon Do?

Youn Wha was a legendary female martial artist living on a remote island in Korea.

​

The Youn Wha system contains all high level techniques from every available style of martial art.

 

Due to its complexity, Tae Kwon Do was integrated into our teaching system. 

​

Students start with Tae Kwon Do and the high level training techniques of Youn Wha are added as students progress.

​

Overall, we focus on each student learning self-control, discipline, self-confidence and how to enjoy physical education.

15 min: Stretching/Cardio Warm Up

35 min: Technique Instruction & Reps

 

The 6 main principles that we live

by are:

 

Be Polite - Be Patient - Be Alert - Be Brave - Do Your Best - Respect Yourself and Others
