As a core part of the Cho’s Academy curriculum, we will continually offer workshops focusing on Tae Kwon Do, Yoga and many other disciplines. The workshop schedule is designed to support a well-rounded curriculum, build a stronger community of members, teach a wide variety of self-defense techniques and to promote overall practices of good health and wellness.
We are proud to offer Muay Thai Kickboxing Workshops on a monthly basis (usually the last Saturday of each month–check the Cho’s Academy Website to confirm actual dates).
Muay Thai is a martial art from Thailand. It complements Tae Kwon Do, focusing on low leg kicks, knee strikes, elbow strikes, work from the clinch and takedowns (offensive & defensive).
Muay Thai is one of the more popular stand up styles preferred by modern day MMA practitioners.
