About Jung Kwon Martial Arts Academy in Asheville, NC
Chung Do Kwan/Oh Do Kwan is a martial art discipline with a rich history dating back over 75 years. It is an amalgamation of various classical arts, some of which have been practiced for over a thousand years. It is easier to learn than many other martial arts, such as Sistema and Tai Chi, and is designed to promote longevity and healthy joints. Clinical studies have shown that it can improve blood-pressure, blood-sugar and serotonin levels, and give practitioners better balance, endurance and focus. After practicing Chung Do Kwan/Oh Do Kwan, people often find increased self-confidence and can do things they never expected. Chung Do Kwan/Oh Do Kwan features elements of multiple martial arts, such as Tae Kwon Do, Shotokan Karate, Shorin Ryu Karate, Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi Chuan. It is a great choice for anyone looking for the fast spinning, kicking and aerial work of Tae Kwon Do, the low strikes and kicks of Shotokan Karate or Shorin Ryu Karate, or the low, smooth circular movements of Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi Chuan. Chung Do Kwan/Oh Do Kwan provides a comprehensive martial arts experience that can help practitioners improve both their physical and mental health. Through consistent practice, people can develop greater self-confidence and a newfound appreciation for their body’s capabilities.

REAL Martial Arts Training - For KIDS! AGES 5/6 - 9/10
At this age, more time is spent on developing good habits, discovering that they can be role models, exploring new goals and developing bigger abilities than they (or you) expected. Through traditional martial arts techniques (original Chung Do Kwan style), combined with our unique teaching approach our young students will surprise you with how quickly they learn and adapt. We tell parents to expect noticeable behavior and grade differences within 3 months, but in actuality, many families tell us they see major differences in as little as 30 days.

These students need stability and confidence, as they move into new schools and new environments. Our program gives them the courage and self-assuredness they need. They'll learn how to be strong and confident, while still being humble, helpful and successful. The basic ability to focus is taught to all students, but this age group needs it the most, and part of our training helps them to develop their focusing abilities to a sharp edge. This goes hand in hand with learning the concepts of consequential thinking, and sequential thinking.

These can be rough years! But for the parents who've trusted us with their kids, the situation really isn't so bad. Teens here are often the upcoming leaders who voluntarily step in to help out when the adult students are busy helping young kids or new members. Several of our students have become quasi-tutors, for kids in their school classes, helping other teens with difficult math and science problems and formulas.
