About

At Ahn's Taekwondo Academy in Plainsboro, we believe that martial arts training can help every child and adult develop the mental and physical skills they need to succeed in life. Martial arts isn't just about self-defense like so many believe — it's about self-confidence, improved focus, physical strength and positive social interaction.

We teach our members to set goals, work hard and follow through, all while having fun and making friends. Our instructors are here to guide, instruct and motivate our members to be the best they can be, so they can impact our community in a positive way.

Our school is led by Grandmaster Jae Ro Ahn, a Kukkiwon-Certified 9th Degree Black Belt with over 45 years of martial arts experience and head of the New Jersey chapter of Kukkiwon. Born in Korea into a family of Taekwondo grandmasters, he holds a bachelor's degree in Taekwondo from Kyung Hee University and a master's degree in Taekwondo theory from Korea National Sport University, and served on the research team that helped restructure the rules for modern poomsae competition.

Our goals are to build individuals into confident leaders, boost their self-esteem, keep them healthy and get them in great physical shape. Serving Plainsboro, Princeton Junction, West Windsor, Cranbury and the surrounding New Jersey communities, we welcome students of every age and experience level.
