Designed
for those 13 and older, our Adults Program offers
an ideal balance of physical
exercise,
philosophy, self-defense, and Martial
Arts curriculum. The classes involve conditioning, toning, and stretching,
along with fundamental Tae Kwon Do skill development.
A More
Modern Form
The
Jhoon Rhee Tae Kwon Do system has its foundation in the Chung Do
Kwon style of Tae Kwon Do, but it is a more
modern form which emphasizes,
and has developed
over the years, the more practical aspects of the
Art.
Jhoon
Rhee Tae Kwon Do incorporates in its
curriculum the “Chung-Gi” series of hyung, or “forms,” consistent
with the International Tae Kwon Do Foundation (ITF). Although these
forms are utilized, Jhoon Rhee students first learn
Grand Master Rhee’s more pragmatic contemporary
forms prior
to learning the traditional forms.
Jhoon
Rhee Tae Kwon Do also emphasizes “semi-contact point fighting” or
light-contact “continual fighting” in its sparring
curriculum, as opposed to “full-contact” sparring.
With this approach, Jhoon Rhee Tae Kwon Do has produced many regional
and national point fighting champions.

Belts
As students advance in rank, they are awarded a series of solid-color belts,
beginning with white and proceeding toward black. In
addition to earning belts, students can also earn stripes within a belt color,
as
a
way
to
further
measure and award progress.
A
full description of our belt progression system can be found in our Adults
Program Manual, which you can download in pdf format by clicking

Martial Arts Weapons Program
Traditionally, the Korean Art of Tae Kwon Do does not typically implement the use of Martial Arts weapons. However, Jhoon Rhee Arlington employs instructors that have years of experience in various weapons. Therefore, students have the opportunity to expand their Martial Arts experience beyond the standard Jhoon Rhee curriculum.
