This school stands alone in my review of martial arts studios and instructors in Indianapolis, especially for children as they learn respect, discipline, self confidence and means to focus. I have two black belts and have been in trucker myself for a decade since over 25 years in martial arts and when traveling and visiting my friends in Indiana they asked me if I could find a class for their children I found the school and they are very pleased with the results and their children. It is taught by a Grandmaster who I highly recommend to teach as they have such a depth of knowledge it is hard to find in many schools. He teaches how to be a better person not a bully like some schools do. This is validated by the positive changes in their children that they have shared with me.

I have two children taking classes at Grandmaster Park's, and it has been a great experience for both of them. Grandmaster Park attends all the classes and greets the children. He is very protective of them, takes an interest in their training from the very beginning, and is happy to speak with parents. The school is focused on developing character; I have noticed that both of my children have become more disciplined, and their grades have improved at school. I'm very happy we found this program.

My 9 year old son has been going to Chung Do Kwan Taekwondo for over 2 years. My 5 year old has been going for about 1 year. We love it! They are both on the shy side, and their confidence has greatly improved since they started taking Taekwondo with Grandmaster Park. They have learned discipline and improved their coordination as well. Grandmaster Park and the other instructors are excellent. They are firm but compassionate and push their students to keep improving physically and mentally. I would definitely recommend Chung Do Kwan!

My family's experience with Grand Master Park has been exactly what I had hoped for in my children's and personal development. I enrolled my three children in the Fall of 2019 to teach them how to be focused and disciplined in mind and body. As I observed the progress my children made in the majesty of Tae Kwon Do, I felt these same principles offered something that I too was missing in my adult life. Thus, I joined in the Fall of 2020 and have not looked back. I have greatly appreciated the camaraderie as well as the challenge provided by Grand Master Park and Master Perry as well as the many excellent other advanced students who have graciously given their time to train both myself and my children. The education provided is both tough and fair. The loyalty that I see from day to day in this environment Grand Master Park has cultivated over many decades is awe-inspiring.

Our 5-year-old son has been training with Grandmaster Park for 1 year. We have seen great progress and are signing our daughter up when she is old enough. We are impressed with the comprehensive focus of their training methods. The Masters address flexibility, self-defense, form, safety, and character-building. Grandmaster Park and his staff are vested in each child's success and growth. They spend individualized time with the kids and will adjust their approach to each participant's learning style.
