Safe Sport Commitment
Master Myung’s Taekwondo Academy is fully committed to providing a safe, welcoming, and inclusive training environment. We strictly adhere to the standards set by Sport Integrity Canada, Taekwondo Canada, and the Taekwondo Ontario.

At Master Myung’s Taekwondo Academy, the safety, well-being, and development of our students are our highest priorities. We are committed to providing a safe, welcoming, inclusive, and respectful training environment for children, youth, and adults.
As a proud member of the Canadian Taekwondo community, we follow the standards and policies established by Sport Integrity Canada, Taekwondo Canada, and Taekwondo Ontario. Our instructors and staff are dedicated to promoting respect, accountability, and positive experiences for every student.
The Rule of Two
Master Myung’s Taekwondo Academy follows the Rule of Two, a nationally recognized safe sport practice designed to protect participants and instructors.
The Rule of Two means that whenever possible:
- Two screened and trained adults are present during classes, events, and activities.
- One-on-one interactions take place in open and observable environments.
- Communication with students and parents remains professional and transparent.
- Appropriate boundaries and respectful conduct are maintained at all times.
By implementing these practices, we help create a positive learning environment where students can build confidence, develop leadership skills, and pursue their martial arts goals safely.
A Martial Arts School Parents Can Trust
Choosing a martial arts school is an important decision for every family. At Master Myung’s Taekwondo Academy, parents can feel confident knowing their children are training in a structured, supervised, and family-friendly environment. Our programs are designed to support youth development, physical fitness, self-confidence, discipline, respect, and positive behaviour both on and off the mat.
Through safe martial arts training, students learn more than kicks, blocks, and forms. They build focus, teamwork, responsibility, and leadership skills while being guided by qualified instructors who care about each student’s progress. Whether your child is joining beginner Taekwondo classes, after-school programs, camps, or Olympic Taekwondo training, our goal is to create a positive experience where every student feels supported, encouraged, and protected.
As part of our commitment to student safety and athlete well-being, we continue to promote Safe Sport values across all academy activities, including classes, events, tournaments, and community programs. This helps families in Markham, Richmond Hill, and Stouffville choose a trusted Taekwondo school where children can grow with confidence.

If you have concerns regarding safety, conduct, or athlete welfare, we encourage you to speak with our leadership team or contact Sport Integrity Canada.
