A Message from your Instructors:
My name is Mr. Stephens and I've been a student and instructor of Songham Taekwondo for almost 2 decades. I believe that any student can achieve any goal with discipline, effort, and persistence. These are my expectations of every student I work with. I have never been afraid to guide someone who is "a little different" or "looking for their fit".
My name is Mr. Valley and I'm a former Navy Corpsman. Helping people has been a focus for more than 15 years. Being from the military, I value respect and discipline as it provides order and structure for students. Working with students full time is a passion of mine. I take pride in being able to meet each student where they are, to help them on their individual journeys in taekwondo, and in life.
