Taekwondo America

Taekwondo America (TA) is a national organization with member schools across the United States. All the schools adhere to the same principles, standards, and procedures which guide the way the schools teach, promote students in rank, and project their image and reputation within the community.

The Taekwondo America National Board of Examiners developed and certified a comprehensive training and fitness program for instructors and students to follow. This enables children and adults to progress at their own pace and ensures that TA schools are able to meet the needs of all students.

The Taekwondo America program is especially strong in the area of children. The structured classes, discipline, and respect that are reinforced each day give younger students tools that they can use throughout life, regardless of their technical skill. The children's program has produced positive results, such as longer attention spans, greater focus, increased respect for others, improved physical fitness, and general behavioral improvement. 

Over the years, Taekwondo America has built a reputation based upon maintenance of a high standard of excellence. The organization has strict training and promotion standards and does not allow any negative, aggressive behavior, or any misuse of Taekwondo in any manner.

Taekwondo America was formed in 1993 after its founders split from the United States Taekwondo Alliance (USTA) now the International Taekwondo Alliance (ITA), due to operational and financial conflicts. Since its formation, Taekwondo America has attracted some of the finest Taekwondo instructors in the United States. Currently, it has over 30 schools in 7 states.
