Our School

Click here to view full sizeThe story of our school begins with Grandmaster Jae H. Kim, who moved to Boston, Massachusetts in 1971. He started teaching Taekwon-do at area universities, where his classes quickly filled with eager students as people took notice of Mr. Kim’s unique teaching style. They instantly recognized the value of Mr. Kim’s approach, which combines an analytical approach acquired through his academic studies at Western universities, with special expertise developed in the East by Taekwon-do masters.

When Mr. Kim’s Taekwon-do classes at the universities could no longer hold the burgeoning number of students coming to him from all over the Boston area, he knew it was time to open a Taekwon-do school of his own, where his students could practice under his supervision day and night. Thus, the Jae H. Kim Taekwon-do Institute was born on July 15, 1974 on Brookline Avenue in Boston. The school has flourished at that location ever since, attracting Taekwon-do students of all ages and backgrounds, from around the world.
