Serving the South Bay For Over 40 Years!

A GENERATIONAL TAEKWONDO ACADEMY

K.S Choi Taekwondo center has been serving the South Bay for over 40 years under the lineage of the Choi Family. Grand Master Kwon Sung Choi opened his first school in 1982 located in San Pedro, CA before making his way to the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Today, his son, Master Danny Choi and his wife Master Megan Yi Choi, are in charge of the family owned academy and continues to teach the same principles that Grand Master K.S Choi had taught many years ago. 

Using the body to train the mind, our Taekwondo based curriculum focuses on the importance of self-discipline, integrity, competition, friendship, community and perseverance to help develop the best version of our students. Each of our instructors are Kukkiwon certified black belts with years of teaching experience and some who are both national and international Taekwondo athletes and champions. All classes have at least three instructors at all times. 

Martial Arts is more than just self-defense, but a lifestyle and we cannot wait to get you started on your journey. Join our school and be part of our community and family. You will not regret it!

See you on the mat

Testimonials

“I cannot speak highly enough of K.S. Choi Taekwondo! The Masters at this school are truly exceptional, demonstrating their expertise, dedication, and passion for Taekwondo in every class. The black belt students are a shining example of the school's commitment to excellence, with their impressive achievements in state and national tournaments. As a parent, I am thrilled to have my two toddlers enrolled, and they absolutely love it! My 7-year-old has already found his passion for Taekwondo at such a young age, and it's incredible to see his growth in confidence, discipline, and athleticism under the guidance of the Masters and the encouragement of his fellow students.

What sets K.S. Choi Taekwondo apart is not only the exceptional instruction but also the supportive atmosphere and sense of community that the school fosters. The staff and fellow parents create a warm and inclusive environment where students can thrive, form friendships, and learn important values such as respect and camaraderie.

I highly recommend K.S. Choi Taekwondo for anyone seeking top-notch Taekwondo instruction. The Masters and black belt students are truly outstanding, and the positive impact they have on my children's lives is immeasurable. If you're looking for a Taekwondo school that prioritizes skill development, character building, and a supportive community, look no further than K.S. Choi Taekwondo!”

“This is an awesome martial arts school! Our whole family loves this studio, with all of our kids joining since 2015. Our three sons have been experiencing high-quality training, local, State & National tournaments, and many family oriented-fun activities. It's been great watching them grow, learn and improve. The masters keep them involved, motivated and actively challenged at their age, and this is a perfect place to burn off their energy. Master Danny Choi and his team are not only teaching Taekwondo techniques, self-defense and discipline but also teaching positive spirit and attitude, they really care about each student. The other families are great, and we have become close with many of them. I like my kids being encouraged and challenged to grow healthily. Highly recommended!”

We moved from San Jose and K. S. Choi is the 2nd Taekwondo school for my son. I’m pretty sure it is the best Taekwondo school in California. All masters are professional and Seonbae(senior) instructors are nice, friendly, and kind. All students are becoming friends. My son is learning not only skills but also handling his mind. Sometimes, he cries during class, but he is always saying “I don't want to give up”. He enjoys school and I also see he is improving a lot.
I highly recommend this Taekwondo school.
