Master J.K. Cha
Master J.K. Cha has trained most of his life and brings over 30 years of Martial Arts experience to Tae Kwon Do Kicks.
He moved to The United States from the birth place of TaeKwonDo – South Korea.
His lifelong journey through Martial Arts has taught him more than physical strength and self defense – he has been able to greatly strengthen and focus his mind as well, allowing him to study and graduate from The University of Texas at Austin.
Through dedication, discipline, and confidence, he has progressed through the ranks of the art and is currently a certified 6th Degree Black Belt.
Master Cha currently lives in the Texas Hill Country with his two wonderful children, Kylyn and Ethan, who have also dedicated their lives to studying the art of TaeKwonDo
He has been sharing his knowledge of the art in the Austin area since 1989, and is eager to help you through your TaeKwonDo journey!
