De Witt Martial Arts teaches Traditional "Old School" Korean Martial
Arts of un-armed self defense, not sports martial arts. Instructors
teach strict, disciplined Korean Chung Do Kwan Tae Kwon Do, HapKiDo and Weapons
classes which promote integrity, accountability, perseverance and the highest
Korean martial arts standards found anywhere, guaranteed! Every student at the
De Witt Martial Arts dojang must meet and maintain exceedingly
high standards for the proficiency of these traditional Korean martial arts and
demonstrate their rank curriculum knowledge, verbally & physically, without
hesitation, regardless of rank. Classes are very demanding, however, our students
have always demonstrated the "student's oath" and have performed exceedingly
well. you Come in a try our two weeks of FREE lessons. No obligations to join,
no contracts! De
Witt Martial Arts is one of the very best Korean martial arts schools in Central
Minnesota. Our students are not only known for their martial arts proficiency
and thorough attention to details and standards but also for having some
of the top GPA school grades in Crow Wing County. We do NOT, as many/most
martial arts schools do, hand out martial arts color belts just to keep students.
We do NOT test and promote our students
every four to six weeks or give students "bonus promotional tests"
in order for them to advance more quickly, allowing DMA to retain students.
A student must make this training a priority and be committed as they learn
traditional Korean martial arts. Our promotional tests are thorough, intense
and each promotion will test every student's cognitive and physical skills/abilities.
Our martial arts students "EARN" each and every belt rank and if
they are NOT promoted, their money -test fee-is returned to them.
