GRAND MASTER KENT HUPS

Grand Master Hups, our long-time TaeKwon-Do instructor, completed his 9th degree black belt testing in June 2019. This moved him up to the "Grand Master" level - a very prestigious honor. Grand Master Hups has been practicing the art of TaeKwon-Do since 1974 and started working with the City of Westminster TaeKwon-Do program in 1991 at The MAC.

Grand Master Hups has had the honor of training with the founder of TaeKwon-Do, the late General Choi Hong Hi. Please take advantage of this rare opportunity to train in our youth, teen, adult, and family classes under the expertise of a Grand Master.
