25 Years of Tae Kwon-Do in Redwood Meadows

This year Redwood Meadows Tae Kwon-Do School is celebrating a significant milestone. What began as a small demonstration in the old Bragg Creek centre 25 years ago continues to this day as a thriving community-based martial arts school in Redwood Meadows.

Over these many years, more than 2,000 students have learned Tae Kwon-Do from head instructor and sixth-degree black belt Mr. Jason Smith and school co-owner and fourth-degree black belt Mrs. Stacie Smith. A number of students have tested for their black belts with some achieving multiple degrees including lead instructor and third-degree black belt Ms. Jodie Clease.

A benefit of the school includes a class structure that encourages parents and kids to train together with many progressing through the ranks as a family.

Setting Redwood Meadows Tae Kwon-Do School apart from other martial arts programs is their long-standing relationship with the community and the continuity of high-quality instruction. This consistency over 25 years allows strong connections to form within the school and offers many opportunities for student development including a special competitive program that provides national and international opportunities.

A traditional Korean martial art, Tae Kwon-Do can be a lifelong activity that not only offers physical benefits including strength, stamina, and flexibility but also includes self-defense skills, the development of confidence, and the ability to persevere.
