MuSool Taekwondo

Taekwondo, also known as Korean Karate, is a not only a self-defense martial art, but it is also an international martial sport. It is a kicking and striking art, but the art also includes take downs and throws.

Taekwondo is also tempered by the guiding principles of courtesy, integrity, self-control, perseverance, and indomitable spirit.

While we focus on learning self-discipline, sportsmanship, and self-defense, we still strive to have fun each and every time we step on the mat.
