About

A Community Built On Respect
At Olympic Taekwondo Academy in Farmington & Simsbury, we believe martial arts is more than just kicking and punching—it is a path to becoming the strongest version of yourself, inside and out.
Our academy was founded by Grand Master Kiye Cho, a 9th-degree black belt with over 50 years of martial arts experience. Known for his dedication to traditional values and his passion for teaching, he has inspired generations of students through discipline, respect, and perseverance.
Today, under the leadership of Master Sunmi Jung, our school has become a trusted part of the community, with hundreds of families sharing how our programs have helped them grow stronger, more focused, and more confident—on and off the mat.
We welcome students of all ages—from kids to adults—offering a safe, supportive, and family-friendly environment where everyone is encouraged to grow at their own pace. Whether you are stepping onto the mat for the very first time or training toward your next belt, you will find a place here.
