About Master Shin's Academy Tae Kwon Do
At Master Shin's Academy Tae Kwon Do, we believe you can feel the changes in your life one class at a time. Taekwondo is a powerful martial art that enhances both physical fitness and mental well-being. Through dedicated training, students develop perseverance, mental resilience, and leadership skills while striving to reach their personal best. Located in the Kansas City Northland, our academy welcomes students of all ages and experience levels into a positive, supportive environment.
Our academy is led by Master Shin, who holds a 5th-degree black belt from the World Taekwondo headquarters in Seoul, South Korea — an achievement earned after 14 years of dedicated study at Dong-a University. A decorated international competitor, she claimed first place in sparring at the 2009 Chuncheon Korea Open and has trained with accomplished Masters in Greece, Azerbaijan, China, and the United States. In 2019, she became the proud owner of Shin's Academy Taekwondo, sharing her passion and knowledge with students throughout the Northland.
At Master Shin's Academy, the true reward comes not from competing with others, but from overcoming personal challenges. As students refine their Taekwondo techniques, they also cultivate a positive mindset, build confidence, and improve overall strength and conditioning. Our mission is to help every student grow stronger, healthier, and more fulfilled — building discipline, confidence, and character that positively impact their lives at school, at home, and in the community.
