Empowering Through Traditional Tae Kwon Do Training
Kim's Tae Kwon Do Rainier Valley has been dedicated to advancing traditional Korean martial arts through disciplined, non-contact training that emphasizes mental and physical development. Our programs focus on mastering kicks, punches, and hyungs (prearranged patterns) while instilling core values like courtesy, integrity, and self-control. Under Grandmaster Hong Sik Kim's leadership, we maintain rigorous standards across all schools to ensure students develop balance, focus, and endurance. Our non-contact approach fosters an inclusive environment where practitioners of all ages learn self-discipline without fear of injury. We believe martial arts training builds character and cultivates the five tenets of Tae Kwon Do: Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control, and Indomitable Spirit.With decades of experience, our instructors guide students toward personal growth through structured belt progression systems. The art's emphasis on circular and linear kicks distinguishes our technical training methodology. Hyungs serve as both physical exercises and meditative practices to refine timing and power. Our philosophy extends beyond combat techniques to shape honorable individuals committed to progress, peace, and love. This holistic approach has established us as the Northwest's largest Tae Kwon Do association.
