Personal Goal:
I have several personal goals I strive to accomplish as a Master in Taekwondo. I want to help my students achieve to become World Champions and Olympians. I also want to turn my students into positive leaders, who uphold all the qualities that define a person of good character. Lastly, I want to create responsible citizens out of my students and involve them in helping to promote a safer community.

Master Mun's Methods of Teaching

Master Mun founded ATC with the vision of providing school-aged children and adults of all ages a firm Foundation in the mental, physical and ethical standards of Taekwondo. His goal is to create not only superior athletes, but responsible adults who live according to the tenets of courtesy, integrity, perseverance and self-control. While his rank and experience would qualify him to make a career of coaching already accomplished university athletes, Master Mun has instead dedicated himself to a program of high-quality education for people of all ages.

Master Mun is a living example of all that embodies Taekwondo; knowledgeable, patient, respectable and a person of integrity in and outside of the dojang. His belief in what he does and in his students allows him to help them reach their highest potential. He truly cares about all his students and assists them anyway possible. Master Mun helps his students in setting and reaching their goals in Taekwondo as well as in their personal lives. Master Mun also likes to volunteer his time and efforts into worthy causes for children and donates to his community.
