Dave’s Taekwon-Do Llc

Dave’s Taekwon Do has been operating in Salem for the better part of 20+ years. It was my introduction into martial arts of any kind and certainly kept me from becoming one of America’s fattest children. It was the first time in my life I was able to do splits and really apply my ability to defend myself.
Though my philosophy on self-​defense /​combat has changed considerably through my current practices of Jeet Kune Do, I still have a lot of respect for those who take the time to practice some aspect of self-​defense. It’s awesome for fitness and provides some level of self-​discipline while channeling a whole new level of self-​confidence.
The process of belt promotions and facilities maintenance is sure to have changed since I first attended years ago. There were all sorts of students ranging from various ages and an even number of boys and girls. Prices were modest back then and are likely to be significantly higher now. Just remember that engaging in any type of martial arts is going to be pricey, it just depends on how what you might consider reasonable.
For those who are looking for something different and a nice way to get fit, I encourage those in the area to seek Dave to begin a new journey in martial arts.
