Master Chon

​

Master Chon was born in Seoul, South Korea.  He began his Taekwondo training at 4 years old and has been training for over 40 years. From elementary school till college, Master Chon studied as a Taekwondo Major. He then served as an officer in the Korean Army where he taught Taekwondo to soldiers.

​

After his military service, Master Chon continued his studies at the University of Central Florida, where he earned a Master’s degree in Exceptional Education.

​

While Master Chon is highly skilled in Korean Martial Arts, an active competitor throughout his life with 4-6 hours of daily training, and an ex-Korean Army special force officer, he is also certified at the International level from Kukkiwon. Kukkiwon is the only organization that the Korean government allows to distribute Taekwondo-related certifications. In Korea, it is a crime for people to teach and open a Taekwondo school without proper Kukkiwon certifications.

Our Staff

​

Master Chon does not allow just any student to teach one to another. Instructors and assistance instructors must not only be a black belt, but they must spend time to show Master Chon that they are a role model to their peers. Therefore, it is a tough challenge to become a black belt when you practice at Master Chon’s Tiger Martial Arts School.
