Our Classes
“Hwal Moo” means “Life Defense”, combining numerous styles (Tang Soo Do, Taekwondo, Hapkido, Judo, Jujitsu, and Muay Thai Kickboxing). Hwal Moo is designed to provide students with the skills of self-defense in multiple situations, combining practical combat and self-defense through mixed martial arts.
All age groups are welcome with private lessons available upon request. Learning forms, sparring, and board-breaking are distinct parts of the curriculum in which each student participates in.
Children's Class
Helping youth gain focus, discipline, and self-confidence are only a few of the benefits of our children’s Taekwondo program, having fun is a bonus! Children’s classes offer immediate benefits that can last a lifetime. Our classes are meant to be fun, challenging, and exciting, while serving as a great way to release their boundless energy in a positive learning environment. The Eight Key Concepts we focus on at WMAC are: Courage, Concentration, Endurance, Honesty, Humility, Control of Power, Tension and Relaxation, and Speed Control.
Our goal is to build character and success traits developed through martial arts training. Through a structured learning environment, children learn skills and techniques of martial arts while developing a positive social interaction with their fellow classmates. Taekwondo is not only an early introduction to exercise for building life-long healthy habits, but also is a great opportunity to make new friends.
