Hwang's Martial Arts

Hwang's Martial Arts operates in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, providing martial arts instruction to practitioners from Palm Beach Gardens, Jupiter, North Palm Beach, Juno Beach, and West Palm Beach. The academy is owned and directed by Master Kristina Hwang, an eighth-degree black belt in TaeKwonDo, a black belt in Krav Maga, and a Gracie Jiu-Jitsu purple belt. Master Hwang descends from a celebrated martial arts lineage; her father, ninth-degree Grandmaster Jack Hwang, trained across Korea in traditional fighting systems and helped introduce TaeKwonDo to the United States. Instruction is also led by Matt Lefkowitz, a third-degree black belt in TaeKwonDo and Krav Maga. The curriculum integrates striking and grappling disciplines for self-defense, coordination, and fitness. Striking coursework centers on traditional TaeKwonDo forms, sparring footwork, and reality-based Krav Maga defenses against common street threats. Ground grappling classes feature Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, including the beginner-friendly Gracie Combatives curriculum for adults. Youth offerings span Kids Martial Arts, Kids Jiu-Jitsu, and Teen Martial Arts programs designed to build physical balance and discipline. Instruction emphasizes personal safety, technical precision, and mutual respect on the mats. Prospective students can get started by taking advantage of a ten-day free trial.
