About Master Cho's Taekwondo
For more than 30 years, Grand Master Cho has taught Taekwondo to families in Lynnwood. What started with a handful of students has grown into three generations of families training here. Parents who earned their belts as kids now bring their own children. The school has grown. The approach hasn't.
We teach the traditional Korean art with a simple promise: every student trains toward their own personal victory, at their own pace.
