Philosophy

Taekwondo is one of the most popular forms of martial arts in the world because anyone, regardless of age, size or ability, will benefit from its training. Students at Sewickley Martial Arts Academy are taught respect, self-control and focus in a safe and positive environment. While rising through the belt rankings, students build character and develop an indomitable spirit. Songahm Taekwondo focuses on overall personal development. We train our students to the best of their individual ability, and our dedicated instructors are with them every step of the way.

Students always train with a certified instructor on the floor. Before becoming certified, our instructors spend 2-3 years as trainees, where they teach at least 300 hours under the supervision of a senior instructor. They must also have a successful background check and become certified in CPR. Certified instructors have demonstrated their depth of knowledge in forms and techniques up to their individual rank, instructional techniques for different age groups, and effective classroom management.
