History
We have been a part of the Los Angeles Taekwondo community since 1995. Our school was founded by Master Octavio Villa, a world Championship bronze medalist, who believed Taekwondo isn’t just about competition – but also about shaping strong, confident individuals for life. After years leading the way, Octavio’s son, Master Gus Villa, took over and is keeping Villa’s Taekwondo strong, alongside his brother, Master Damian Villa. The two have collected a case full of accomplishments, including Gus becoming three-time USA National Champion and four-time Mexico National Champion. Gus uses his experience and lessons passed down by his father to make the school a place for everyone. This has included adding new programs, improving equipment, and overall modernizing everything for current-day Taekwondo culture.
