Jung Martial Arts prides itself on having quality, genuine Martial Arts Instruction. We are proud of our direct linage and are dedicated to passing on the authentic techniques, concepts, traditions and philosophies of our Hapkido family.
Jung Martial Arts Family Center (JMAFC) was established in 1994. All classes at JMAFC are led by Internationally Certified Instructors and Apprentice Instructors. JMAFC is not a Martial Sport club or neighborhood gym. JMAFC is an accredited Korean Martial Arts Educational Center.
HapKiDo isn’t just about physical skills. Although it is effective self-defense, it’s also a journey of self-discovery, cultural immersion, and academic exploration. Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced practitioner of Korean Martial Arts, JMAFC offers a transformative experience that nurtures both body and mind, fostering a community of martial artists who embody discipline, respect, and a profound connection to Korea’s Martial Traditions.
JMAFC Instructors place a balanced emphasis on the academic aspects of martial arts. In addition to physical conditioning, students delve into the martial sciences: studying physiology to understand the body’s responses during combat, exploring psychology to enhance their understanding of self-defense strategies, and cultivating a calmness of spirit through meditation and mindful practices.
There is often a misconception that having a Black belt makes a person qualified to teach others. This is false and damaging to not only the art, but also the individuals being instructed. The art passed down to others in this manner is degraded and inferior. Earning a Black Belt means that they have graduated from the color belt ranks and have built a foundation on which to learn. Not teach.
Having a Black Belt of any rank or style does not in itself qualify someone to be an instructor regardless of degree ranking. At Jung Martial Arts, our instructors hold genuine, Internationally Certified rankings and must meet stringent qualifications. They have been professionally trained to teach others to pass on the correct knowledge and skill sets to others. This ensures the continuation of the high standards and authenticity of the art. JMAFC Instructor’s and Black Belt holders are proud members of the Korea Hapkido Federation.

I earned my 1st Dan in Orthodox Hapkido while stationed in Korea during my Army service, and I can tell you that the Jung Martial Arts Family Center is the real deal. Highly recommend! Brett Welty2023-06-14 My son has been training at Jung Martial Arts Family Center (Hapkido) for over two years and my wife and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My son is learning about the art of self-defense, which teaches him balance, footwork, body positioning, how to breathe and several other components of Hapkido. However, more impressively to me, not only is he learning about self-defense, but he is also learning about critical life values such as honesty, integrity, respect, loyalty, courage, etc. With the top-notch instruction that he receives from the staff, he doesn’t just know to say those words (values), but he understands the meaning of the word(s) and how it applies to him. Overall, I believe Hapkido has impacted my son in an extremely positive way. Changing his attitude from self-doubt to I can do anything, no longer being timid in trying something new, and making better overall decisions on a daily basis. I highly recommend the Jung Martial Arts Family Center to anyone. I promise you will be impressed with the atmosphere and the outstanding Instructors! Jackie Sullivan2023-06-07 Jung Martial Arts Family Center teaches authentic Korean Hapkido. It is the perfect place to go for a family activity. Not only does our family bond more on the mat, we are also learning self defense while getting a good workout. Our children have been a part of Jung Martial Arts for several years. Not only have they learned good self defense skills, they also learned good morals and values off the mat. Jung Martial Arts is for anybody with any disability from ages 5 to, well if you are still alive to read this. I would have joined years ago if I wasn't so self conscious of my size. I finally built up the courage and joined. I wish I had joined years ago when I was first interested. Our Hapkido family always accepts anyone with open arms and are non-judgmental. If you have ever thought about learning self defense and want to get in shape while doing it, I highly encourage you to Just Hapkido It! You won't regret it.
