Academy story, mission, and championship instructors

Our Story

Wildcat Taekwondo LLC was founded with a single mission: to provide lifelong skills in discipline, self-control, self-respect, and superior self-defense techniques to students of every age. Located in Cadiz, Kentucky, our academy brings championship-level martial arts training to the heart of Trigg County.

Whether you’re enrolling your 4-year-old in their first class or stepping onto the mat as an adult, Wildcat Taekwondo is built to challenge, inspire, and transform.

Our Style — CTF Taekwondo

We teach CTF-style Taekwondo, which incorporates traditional ITF patterns with additional discipline-focused patterns. This approach creates a well-rounded martial artist who excels in forms, self-defense, board breaking, and sparring — while building character and mental resilience.
