A short drive from anywhere in Skokie
Our dojo at 7639 N Milwaukee Ave in Niles sits right on the Skokie border. From Old Orchard it's about 10 minutes up Milwaukee. From downtown Skokie or the Oakton Street area, most families make it in 12–15 minutes. Free lot parking means no circling the block after a long workday.
Popular with Skokie families
Skokie parents come to us for the same reasons families in Niles do: they want a place where kids learn respect, follow through on goals, and build the kind of confidence that carries over to school and home. Taekwondo does that better than almost any other activity for kids — it's physical, it's structured, and belts give kids something concrete to work toward. We also see plenty of Skokie adults in our evening classes for the workout and stress relief.
Traditional Taekwondo, modern approach
Master Seyun Jeoung has 30+ years of Taekwondo experience and runs the school personally. That means students get the traditional discipline and etiquette of a real martial art, taught in a way that's welcoming to complete beginners. No pressure, no lock-in contract — just a 2-week trial so your family can see if we're a fit.
