Follow the instructions from the teacher and watch those around you to figure out what to do!. We teach beginners using the method known as Immersion; new students enter either the Junior Dragon or Lower Belt classes -- the White, Gold and junior Orange belts -- because new students learn faster when they can watch other more experienced students perform basic movements and patterns.
Imitating those around you while following instructions is the fastest and easiest way to start learning the basics of the movements and how to control your own muscles and body. This can be a little disorientating for the new student. However, everyone seems to get in synch with the curriculum within a few classes.

We are dedicated to studying and teaching self-discipline through mastering the Art of Tae Kwon Do. We strive to teach kids and adults Life Skills that will help them succeed. We believe that people can become better at anything they want to do by mastering themselves. We emphasize personal growth and development.
Our school was founded in 1997 by a concerned Montgomery County School active PTA Parent, Mr. Gary Lattanzio. At the time, the PTA of his eldest son's school was looking for after school activities to give its students something productive to do with their free time, and reduce the amount of time its students were spending in front of the television and video games.
Our School basically follows the traditional methods of teaching Tae Kwon Do. However, we have added some new elements to enhance the students physical and mental education, most notably our use of Homework Assignments and printed curriculum sheets for each belt level. Our homework assignments are designed to instruct the students and to inform the student's parents.
A.S.K. Martial Arts is committed to providing courses that not only fit every skill level and background, but also infuse our supportive and innovative teaching approach.
