History
Established in 1980.
Founded in 1980 by Master David Grimsley, we branched off from Grandmaster Song Ki Pak of Jacksonville, Fl. Master Grimsley has trained with multiple different styles and teachers of Martial Arts including the famous Bill "Superfoot" Wallace. Our primary art is a kicking style called Tang Soo Do which we incorporate in our self defense and kickboxing classes. We strive to build the best martial artists not only physically but morally through their character as well. Respect is a big part of all of our classes as well as many other life lessons that you just simply cannot get anywhere else!
