"I have a true passion to help people achieve their goals.. and I'm ready to help YOU achieve yours!"

My name is Marc Grenier, I’m the founder of Pilsung Martial Arts Academy.

You can read about some of my credentials (see the sidebar) if you’re wondering about my experience or expertise in the martial arts.
But the real reason you should listen to me is because I truly want to see you succeed.

Whatever “success” may mean for you…

Some of our students just want to get into better shape and learn to defend themselves…

Others want to win tournaments and become champion fighters…

Whatever your personal goals may be, I can help get you there. I don’t believe in a “cookie-cutter” approach and understand that everyone has a different style of learning.

In my deep teaching experience I’ve developed ways to effectively communicate with virtually anyone and get them to understand what they need to do to improve and achieve more.

I’ve been training in Taekwondo for over 17 years now and teaching for 15 of those years but I still get the most satisfaction out of seeing new students sign up… set goals for themselves… then achieve them—oftentimes overshooting their goals and finding unexpected success.

And I want to see you achieve all your goals too!

What You Should Know About Taekwondo

Why Taekwondo?

Taekwondo is the official sport of Korea and was made an Olympic sport in the year 2000.

Taekwondo is famous for its fast, and powerful kicks and its advanced footwork making it an exciting sport to watch.

It consists of three basic components 1.) Attacks 2.) Counter-attacks and 3.) Trapping (setting up your opponent so you can counter his counter-attack).

Beginner classes focus on developing physical fitness while learning basic self-defense techniques.

Advanced classes focus on mastering the basics and learning more and may include competition.

Why Taekwondo Teaches You
To Defend Yourself FAST…

In most martial arts beginners are taught basic techniques and stances and are told to practice those moves over and over again—only striking the air and targets such as heavy bags and kicking paddles.

Learning to defend yourself effectively by training like this can take months, even years because you’re not learning to fight a REAL person!

A major difference in taekwondo training is that we introduce free sparring to beginners early in their training. This allows you to get more comfortable with dealing with a real, live human who is constantly reacting to you and your techniques.

Training like this forces you to quickly learn what it feels like to hit a real human (not just striking targets)… to evade and block real attacks (not just imagining an opponent)… and learn to quickly deal with the psychological and emotional effects of fighting a real person.

Free sparring is the way to learn these skills in a safe environment without putting yourself in danger—in short you can practice SAVING your life without ever having to risk it!

Get Into The Best Shape of Your Life…
And STAY That Way Without Ever Getting Bored!

Most people have no problems starting an exercise program or trying to get in shape.

Come January 1st, almost everyone decides they want to lose a little weight and tone up… but those resolutions rarely last.

Why?

It’s simply a matter of using an effective system and sticking to it… and traditional exercises like running and going to the gym can quickly become repetitive and boring—so most people just give up.

That’s what makes martial arts training so effective for getting into the best shape of your life!

In each class your current physical and mental abilities are tested and stretched… and you leave each class sweaty, happy and with a feeling of accomplishment.

Because you’re constantly learning new things, either about yourself, or the martial arts you’re NEVER bored.

Plus, because you’re working out with a class full of other motivated students—and you have a dedicated instructor there to push you—you can’t help but maximize each and every workout.

Which means you’ll look forward to going to each class… increasing your abilities… pushing your limits… and find yourself getting into the best shape of your life and staying that way—almost effortlessly!

Is Training At Pilsung Martial Arts Really All I Say It Is?
Just Ask These People!


"I Highly Recommend Pilsung Martial Arts!"

"When my son started to tell me he wanted to start taking martial arts classes, I asked around and Pilsung Martial Arts was recommended by a friend of mine at work. After speaking to Master Marc about his school, I was completely impressed with his knowledge of martial arts. Not only is his knowledge mastered in his form of martial arts, but his knowledge of other forms of martial arts is also vast. I highly recommend Pilsung Martial Arts for anyone looking for a physical and mental boost."

-- Wayne Sisco
Deborah Sisco
Brandon Sisco
Kayla Sisco

"Pilsung Martial Arts Is Like A Second Home!"

"Pilsung Martial Arts is like a second home to our family. We all exercise at Pilsung, progress in our training and have made many friends here. Master Marc’s knowledge at physiology and physical training is utterly suberb. He willingly works with each member of our family as individuals, for our six year old daughter who is just learning taekwondo basics to motivating our nine year old son, to continuing training for the adults. I recommend Pilsung to all serious martial arts students in the area."

--David Hyland-Wood

"My Children and I Are Always Excited To Come To Class!"

"Pilsung Martial Arts has been a wonderful addition to our family’s lifestyle. My children have grown physically and mentally. Master Marc has a fatherly approach to training the children and it shows in them.

Since I have also started training here, I have noticed growth in my skills in just the first few weeks. Again, Master Marc’s genuine concern and passion for us students is refreshing. He takes the time to research proper training techniques and makes sure we apply them.

I love the atmosphere here. It is like home. My children and I are always excited to come to Pilsung Martial Arts. I recommend Pilsung Martial Arts for anyone looking for a great school that cares for its students."

--The Mehmel Family

Some Common MYTHS About Martial Arts…
And The REALITY.

MYTH: I’m Not In Good Enough Shape
REALITY:
Martial Arts Training Fits Anyone!

Some people think they have to be in better shape before they can even start training. This is simply not true. If you can walk at a rapid pace without keeling over, then you’re ready to start training!

We’ll work with you so that you maximize your current abilities and push yourself past your current limits—slowly and consistently so you don’t ever “over-do” it or injure yourself.

The truth is martial arts training has something for everyone. If you’re a woman and flexible… then our training will tone you up and get you stronger.

If you’re a strong man—we’ll teach you how to get more flexible, agile and “light on your feet”.

If you’re flexible and strong then we’ll increase your stamina.

The truth is—we’ll work with whatever you have now and make you better—all you have to do is show up with a can-do attitude.

MYTH: Martial Arts are Only For Young People
REALITY: It’s good for all ages!

Another misconception is that martial arts are only for young people… but this is simply not true.

We have many students in their thirties, forties, and even older.

Once again—your ability level will determine how intense you train—we’ll start where you are and build from there.

Unlike most martial arts training centers, you’ll find we have a unique understanding of human physiology and we’re extremely concerned about training in the safest, most effective ways possible… without doing damage to joints, muscles or other body systems.

For example, some schools have you throw full-force kicks and techniques into the air—we know this will damage and weaken your joints over-time and it’s better to actually hit a target.

What this all means to you: No matter your age, you can start training today!

MYTH: I Need Martial Arts Experience To Begin
REALITY: You Do NOT Need Any Experience To Get Started Today

You can start training today without ANY previous martial arts experience. We’ll teach you everything you need to know from how to bow to throwing your first front kick.

We have experience training children as young as 3 years old—so we know a thing or two about teaching people with absolutely NO experience!

There’s no reason to be embarrassed starting training with no experience—everyone has to start somewhere.

In fact, most of our members are at the beginner level… but they’re still seeing amazing advancements in their attitude, physical fitness, self-defense skills and training success.

Which means there’s no reason at all not to get started training today—even if you have no experience.

Attention:
Athletes and Competitors

Are You Interested In Sparring?

As I mentioned before, even in beginner classes, sparring is a big part of the curriculum.

But some people highly enjoy the challenge and fun of sparring in a more competitive atmosphere. For students who show talent in this area and the desire we may invite them to join our Tournament Team.

If you get invited to join our tournament team you’ll take part in special training classes emphasizing sparring and tournament training. And you’ll get the opportunity to represent our school at local… state… national and even international tournaments!

Our tournament team is only a couple of years old but our unique training method is already producing results.
