Kim's Institute of Martial Arts in Hershey, Pa. was founded by Master Suk Jung Kim, a 7th degree black belt in Sin Moo Hapkido, black belt in Kendo and Tae Kwon Do. He is also a certified master instructor / referee in Tae Kwon Do and had an extensive career in the US Military as an army captain. Master Suk Jung Kim is dedicated to training children and adults at the Institute.

Here at Kim's Institute of Martial Arts we are focused and determined to serve our students with the highest quality instruction, professionalism, and service in the industry. To achieve our goal we have implemented programs that cater to the individual interests of our community. Our students range from all ages with interest varying from stress relieving, health promoting exercises to intense, traditional training that the Martial Arts are so famous for. All aspects of our center are arranged to build a balanced relationship of trust and respect with our students. We offer discipline and character building in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere that anyone can feel comfortable in.

We have three main goals for our students:

Learn Practical Self Defense: Kim's Institute of Martial Arts has a system of natural, easy to learn movements, which are designed to allow individuals aged young and old, male or female, to defend themselves against aggressive, often larger opponents.

Promote Better Health: In order to eliminate wasted motion and promote increased speed and power, students are taught to become more relaxed and fluid. The way we train also has an aerobic effect. This improves the cardiovascular system (hearts and lungs) and accelerates the body’s metabolism, causing you to burn more calories and to lose weight. Regular training also results in increased balance, flexibility, strength, muscle tone, speed, coordination, and improved reflexes and timing! Once in better health, you will not only look better and feel better, you will also have a lot more energy to do the things you enjoy.

Develop a Strong Mind: In this aspect, our curriculum surpasses all other exercise and sports activities. Our program is taught according to individual needs and levels of skills. Through our instructor’s guidance and encouragement, students begin to establish, and actually achieve, personal goals. Students learn that, by setting realistic goals and applying dedication and hard work, anything is possible. They develop confidence! The virtues of Respect, Concentration, Discipline, and Motivation are the characteristics of a truly confident individual. All these, and more, are stressed by our Staff.
