Specialties
Founded in 1997 by Master Doug Cook, it is the mission of the Chosun Taekwondo Academy to provide authentic martial arts instruction to adults, teens and children at an affordable price in a safe and encouraging environment. In keeping with this policy, Chosun students are taught fundamental drills and exercises targeted at self-defense, increasing flexibility and physical fitness. Additionally, meditation is employed as a vehicle to clear the mind prior to training, enhance focus, and cultivate concentration. These pedagogical concepts compound to support taekwondo as a martial way or a path to enlightenment rather than merely a sport. There are no obligatory membership contracts and classes are unlimited. In addition to the martial arts program, yoga classes are taught by certified yoga instructor, Patty Cook
