Welcome to Tulane Taekwondo and Chayon Martial Arts. Tulane Taekwondo provides the finest in martial arts instruction available in the Greater New Orleans area. We provide instruction in Chayon-Ryu, a modern method of teaching traditional martial arts.
The Original Mixed Martial Art! Chayon-Ryu is a new way to present the traditional methods of martial arts, combining the training methods and techniques of the classical oriental martial arts with the dynamics of modern methods and scientific discovery. Chayon Ryu is centered in taekwondo, but includes in its training elements of wrestling, judo, jujitsu, hapkido, karate, and chuan fa (kung fu).
We offer classes at the Reily Student Recreation Center at Tulane University. In this excellent facility, classes are available for children and adults. Each student has access to lockers and showers. Parking is plentiful, convenient and free for class.
Little Dragons These classes are perfectly designed for 4-6 year-olds. It's fun, disciplined, high energy and fun. Did we mention fun? The class meets every Saturday morning at 11:30 AM.
