Two Rivers Martial Arts teaches traditional Tae Kwon Do, but we are not a traditional martial arts school. We are traditional because we stress the five tenets - Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control, and Indominantable Spirt - and because we practice a non-contact sparring style. We are non-traditional because we have no headmaster.
