Parkside Self Defense

Parkside Self Defense Helping people to make a positive change in their lives. Here at Parkside Self Defense, we believe in providing top quality service in all we do. Join us today!

Our instructors, Mr. Kevin Whaley, and Mr. Rhey Javins, have set this as the standard in our branch of the Saeng-Hwal Taekwondo Organization (STO). Our goal is not to change the organization, but to strengthen it's foundation. We hope to improve and streamline our teaching methods to create an overall superior learning environment for our students as well as our staff. We aim to be actively involv

ed in the local community. We believe our support and involvement in local events and charities reflects the true character of a martial artist, and builds strong ties within that community. In time, we hope to shed a positive light on what we do, and change some of the negative connotation linked to modern-day martial arts practitioners. Our mission is our students. We strive for excellence in all that we do, inside and outside the training environment. Our goal is that every student will grow to uphold and live by the 5 tenents of Taekwondo. These 5 tenents are Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control, and Indomitable Spirit. They are foundations to building character, confidence, and self-discipline, and are a crucial element to becoming a good martial artist. The right place at the right time makes all the difference. That place is here. That time is now. Don't put it off!
