Meet Master Cruz

 Hello, my name is Ken Cruz, I am a 7th Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo. I have been involved in martial arts for over 40 years. I first started practicing martial arts when I was seven years old to combat being bullied and I’ve been enjoying it ever since!  I have owned my own martial arts studio for 24 years. Due to my wife being in the military, I have established schools in various countries all over the world. I love teaching students of all ages and have extensive experience teaching individuals, with various backgrounds and abilities, with ages ranging from 3 years to 63 years old. I teach martial arts to share the passion I have for Taekwondo, in hopes of giving others the opportunity to gain the same self-confidence, awareness, and increased physical and mental strength that I have found in it. I am originally from the island of Guam and in my culture, we love to bring joy to the world. I bring this mindset to my studio through my teaching, and encourage laughter and optimism within the classes here at Mr. Cruz’s Taekwondo and Self Defense.
