Prior to opening his current school, Tiger Sun Martial Arts Frisco, Master Park followed the path of many Martial Arts school owners and focused just on technique, until one day, he realized that one of the students he trained had developed exceptional Martial Arts technique, but was making several bad choices as a human.
This pivotal moment in his career caused him to change the way he taught, and transform his business model from one that focused just on the business of Martial Arts to an educational model with academic standards and a reward system for technique and personal growth.
This revelation was the inspiration behind the development of his world class curriculum, which is popular with both parents and educators alike, because it focuses not just on technique, but also mindset so that his students can reach their highest potential. No matter what belt level his students have attained, they are taught leadership and success principles and challenged to maintain a Black Belt Excellence attitude. His training and curriculum has been credited with helping students improve grades and athletic performance, dramatically increasing self-esteem, helping with anger and emotional issues and increasing overall confidence.
“If you teach a child to punch and kick, but not teach them how to understand their strength or control and manage their inner desires, then you don’t have success” -- Master Park.
Prior to opening his Frisco location, he owned and operated the largest Martial Arts school in Madison, MS with 450+ students and 2 locations. Master Park teaches Korean Mixed Martial Arts, an unique blend of Taekwondo, Hapkido and Gumda.
