MADISON – Instructors with Jeong’s Yong in Martial Arts are bringing 35-plus years of experience to the do jang (Korean for taekwondo school).

“We’ve become the fastest growing martial arts school in Madison,” spokesperson Robert Bardwell said. “We have professional instructors, a positive and encouraging atmosphere, a fun learning environment and a modern state-of-the-art facility in a convenient location at U.S. 72 and Wall Triana.”

“Madison is lucky to have a Korean Taekwondo Grand Master servicing the community,” Bardwell said.

The studio offers specialized classes for children, adults and families. “Children’s classes improve focus, self-confidence and respect. Adult classes teach self-defense, self-esteem and provide a great workout,” Grand Master and owner Sang Ok Jeong said.

Family classes offer a unique mix of benefits, allowing parents and children to share goals and train side-by-side. Sang Ok Jeong guarantees his martial arts classes will be a rewarding activity with benefits to last a lifetime.

He suggests trying their no-risk, Quick Start Program. “Choosing Jeong’s Yong in Martial Arts will be one of the best decisions you’ll make,” he said.
