About Us | Taekwondo school in Hernando

I KNOW HOW DIFFICULT AND CONFUSING
FINDING A MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL CAN BE.

I remember when I was a child, feeling uncertainty about beginning martial arts. I wondered if I had what it took to succeed and I wasn’t the most athletic or confident child - quite the opposite. Little did I know that beginning my martial arts journey would be one of the most profound experiences of my life!

When I opened my school in 2006, I made a commitment to serving and empowering the community of Hernando by teaching children and adults the confidence, leadership, and fitness skills that can only be achieved through martial arts.

A GREAT SOCIAL EXPERIENCE FOR STUDENTS & PARENTS AS WELL

One of the most fun parts of martial arts training is the ability to test your skills by competing in a tournament. Tournaments are not only fun for competitors, but they also become a great social experience for parents as well!

From sparring to forms to team sparring, these awesome competitions are not only a place where our students can test their skills, but also a place where team spirit is built, fears are overcome, and character is developed. Most importantly, they are tons of fun!

Hernando Taekwondo is an outstanding group. Dawn Martin truly appreciates the art and teaching others. She started training my son, Dalton, 10 years ago. He's now a 3rd degree black belt and an instructor. Taekwondo taught him discipline and self control. It also helped him to focus. Mrs. Martin treats you like family and wants you to be successful.

In a word, AMAZING. From the classes to the staff, this place is the best. My son is so happy here which means I'm one happy parent. He is learning more than just patterns and drills...he is learning to be a better person. That's priceless. Love this place.

You will not find another taekwondo studio that teaches discipline, respect, and self control as well as Hernando Taekwondo. Dawn Martin and her instructors are so passionate about teaching. They build confidence and good character. My daughter always enjoys going to class and I know she is in the best care with these martial artists.

Both my children went to Hernando Taekwondo from the time they were 4 years old until they earned black belt, nine years total. Great program, great instructors, flexible hours and both after school and summer programs as well with a certified educator. Highly recommend this program. Five stars!

I just want to say thank you to each and every one of y’all for going the extra mile for my girls. Since the girls started Taekwondo they have been extremely happy and their confidence level has gone up. Best decision we have ever made! Thank you for all the hard work and encouraging words you have given my girls. We are truly blessed.
