A Legacy of Martial Arts Excellence in San Antonio
World Class Tigers Taekwondo has a proud history rooted in the passion, dedication, and vision of its founder, Master Junki Hong. Since opening in 2020, the school has made a meaningful impact on hundreds of students and families across San Antonio, helping them grow through the values of Taekwondo—discipline, confidence, and respect.
Where It All Began: Our Martial Arts Journey in San Antonio
Our story began in 2020 with the opening of Tiger Hong’s World Class Taekwondo—a school founded on passion, discipline, and a deep commitment to the community. What started as a single location soon became the foundation for something greater.
As our students grew and our vision expanded, we evolved into World Class Tigers Taekwondo, continuing the mission with the same heart and dedication. Today, we proudly carry forward that legacy—empowering students across San Antonio through martial arts training rooted in excellence and tradition.
