Rodriguez TaeKwonDo Academy is a TaeKwonDo School (Dojang), established in 1990. We are focused on promoting healthy, active, and honest living through martial arts education, that can be applied in real life both in and out of the classroom. The aim is to bring out the leader in each student by instilling self-discipline, self-control, respect, and a sense of pride in one's self and others. Through rigorous training, students not only build physical strength, but also develop mental acuity by adhering to the tenets of TaeKwonDo. Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self Control, Indomitable Spirit. Martial Arts also provide alternatives to boredom and inactivity and gives students an alternative to team sports. TaeKwonDo allows you to be an individual while still being part of a team. We encourage you to visit us, you can also try one free "no-obligation" class by calling 847-481-9095.
