History

Established in 1989.

Our Vision

Grandmaster Park came to the United States in February 1986 and worked in construction for 3 years. During this time, he continued his martial arts training. He made the decision to return to his true passion Tae Kwon Do in 1989 when he opened the first of five schools. Grandmaster Park, who began training in Tae Kwon Do at the age of 5, became very active within the U.S. Tae Kwon Do Union in 1990. He was instrumental in facilitating the growth of Tae Kwon Do in the United States. This involvement culminated with Grandmaster Park being named as the coach of the 1994 U.S. National Tae Kwon Do team.

In 2004, Grandmaster Park moved his family to Monmouth County, NJ and along with his sons, Masters Steve Park and Master Sunny Park, opened the first Master Park’s Black Belt America in Marlboro, NJ. In a short period of time, Master Steve, a 6^th Dan Black Belt and Master Sunny, a 5^th Dan Black Belt assumed the lead role in day to day operations of the school.
