About US
KTKD PUBLIC SCHOOL
Newtopia
Enterprise Inc, dba Korea Taekwondo, began teaching Taekwondo in NYC public
schools in 2008. We began with the vision of
teaching respect, humility, perseverance,
self-control, and honesty--the core
values of Taekwondo--in the public schools of
metropolitan New York.
We give
students the opportunity to work with Taekwondo masters of great skill,
who have
inherited the knowledge of many generations.
We are the first and only
Taekwondo education service in the New York City Department of
Education as
well as the first and only New York City Charter School Preferred Vendor of
Taekwondo Education.
We have worked with
over 20,000 students through physical education classes and
enrichment programs
in schools, refining the methods for keeping
this traditional Korean martial
art alive and making it relevant to today’s student.
We consider it our
privilege to allow students to experience the benefits, intellectual &
physical,
personal & social, that a Taekwondo education can bring to their
lives.
Every school year we teach
Taekwondo in 15-17 different public schools.
Public Schools with KTKD
KTKD Studio
“Our goal is to facilitate, educate,
and inspire
all people to become healthier,
happier citizens of humanity
through self-discovery,
so that together, we can build a better peaceful world.”
This is our school’s mission statement.
It is our greatest hope that when you become a KTKD student,
you can also grow into the best version of yourself.
We want you to be confident and proud of the
person you become through
your Taekwondo journey.
KTKD in Korea
In 2016, KTKD began recruiting and training Taekwondo Elites from South Korea.
It is not only our purpose to help the community of NYC by spreading Taekwondo,
but to help the global community by training Korean Taekwondo specialists so
they can have a brighter future here, and in Korea. It is the best of both worlds;
American Taekwondo students receive the honor of learning traditional Taekwondo from
Korea’s most skilled practitioners. And those instructors and masters have the opportunity to
become proficient in English and experience American culture firsthand.
