Welcome to the Columbia Martial Arts Academy

We are pleased to have you join us in the most popular martial arts in the nation. Whether you joined for yourself, a child, or a friend, we are sure that you will get both enrichment and enjoyment from the experience.
           
There is much to learn now that you have taken the first step into your Tae Kwon Do training.  The history of Tae Kwon Do dates back many centuries and has been the foundation for self-confidence and security for countless individuals.  Not only will you learn the basic kicks, punches, and blocks of this discipline, but also an array of forms and moves that give credence for calling Tae Kwon Do a martial "art".  Not only will you learn the techniques that make up the forms, but you will also learn many moves for basic self defense as well as how to properly stretch the muscles necessary for performing the forms properly.
           
Your journey towards your goal, whatever it may be, has just begun. Along the way you can expect to learn much more than just how to kick, punch, and block.
