Tae Kwon Do
Founded in 1994 by World Tae Kwon Do Championship Medalist Dante E. Peña, Ultimate Martial Arts has been teaching the highest quality Tae Kwon Do for over a decade. Master Peña is a former member of the Philippine National Team and a five-time national champion, and a recipient of the Presidential Citation Award from former Philippine President Fidel V. Ramos in recognition of his achievements in Tae Kwon Do.
Master Peña knows a good student is a reflection of his teacher and he owes his success to Grand Master Grand Master Sung Chon Hong, his mentor and national team coach, and Grand Master Kang Yung Sung.

TIME TO GO PROFESSIONAL
In September 2007, James Britcher, Inventor of Heavy Bag System (HBS), came to our Center for three long days to install the most modern & durable Heavy Bag System. It's so easy to use that even a 9-year-old can move the 100 lbs. punching bags into position. This is one of the first Heavy Bag Systems in the midwest and demonstrates Ultimate's committment to be your best choice for professional martial arts training.
