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.
