We've been teaching Central PA traditional martial arts in the style of Jung Sim Do for over 30 years. Try us out today and learn Tae Kwon Do, Hap Ki Do, & Yu Do from one of Camp Hill's favorite dojangs. Are you searching for a martial arts program "near me"? From karate classes for kids and adults, to kickboxing workouts, we have something for everyone.
Our flexible schedule means you can find a class that fits your busy day. Try us free for one week and see why we have been voted Harrisburg's Simply the Best multiple years in a row. I just wanted to thank you for all that you and your school do for my family. What started out as a form of exercise for Robert has turned into so much more for all three of us.

In 1974, the Korean martial art system of Jung Sim Do was established by the art's founder, Grandmaster Seung Kil Choi, 9th Dan and brought to the United States. When GM Choi passed away on an island off the coast of Korea in 1991, he left a number of Black Belts and their students to carry on the Jung Sim Do tradition.
Acknowledging innovation makes Jung Sim Do a "live" art. Third generation Jung Sim Do instructor, Vincent Vergara, founded the U.S. Jung Sim Do Federation in 1995. This organization set forth the modern idea of maintaining Jung Sim Do's strong traditions while evolving it's philosophy and techniques to better serve today's martial arts practitioners and their needs.

Great place for martial arts for both children and adults, as well as cardio kickboxing. Instructors and students are very welcoming of newcomers, and if you have any interest at all you should try the free week to see if it is for you. Prices are reasonable and instruction quality is top tier. With a wide variety of class times it is easy to find a class that fits your schedule. Overall a great choice for both children and adults, and remember it is never too late to start!

My daughter and I have been attending to their classes. She is taking martial art classes while I am taking cardio kick boxing classes at the same time. We are both extremely happy with our classes. Everybody is very friendly and the teachers are very patient and resourceful. I totally recommend this place for kids and adults! It's a great way to stay healthy while you have fun in a friendly environment.
