Gotham Taekwon-do has been established in Lenox Hill/ Upper East Side since 2007 and continues to successfully support students' growth and educate them to achieve their goals.
Credentials — Serving our communities for more than 17 years, Headmaster Kwok, a Doctor of Education with over 45 years of martial arts experience, pays close attention to each student and adapts to their learning style.
Consistency — Having a consistent teacher like Headmaster Kwok helps the program stay well structured and organized. It is also crucial that the school setting is welcoming for students to feel confident and comfortable in order to fully be engaged to learn.
Small Community — Our program is a close-knit community with students and parents from different professions. Headmaster Kwok is open to work closely with parents to accommodate their children's need. At Gotham Taekwon-do, students are exposed to traditional martial arts culture; they also interact with students from different backgrounds. They tend to be more culturally intelligent and eager to explore other values in life.
Safety — At Gotham Taekwon-do, our students' safety is our top priority. All teachers undergo background checks in order to secure a safe and professional environment for students taking part in our programs.
Giving back to our communities — Headmaster William Kwok passionately believes in giving back to our communities and making a difference. He volunteers to teach self-defense workshops in underprivileged communities and produces short films that promote peace, anti-bullying, and practical self-defense concepts.
