What makes the Taekwondo Professionals Convention different?
FOCUS!
We focus exclusively on educating Taekwondo Professionals, connecting Taekwondo Professionals and increasing participation in Taekwondo in your community.
This focus means that implementing the ideas that you learn is faster and easier. What you will see and hear at our event has been proven to work in dojangs across the country.
ATMOSPHERE
Every year our participants tell us that they appreciate the respectful atmosphere and courteous environment at our convention. We know that it possible to be open minded and innovative business people, and still remain true to our traditions and Taekwondo culture.
You will find that our highly successful speakers are humble and approachable. Our attendees have a great time networking with one another, and dojangs of any size will feel welcome and encouraged.
We aren’t here to show off. We are here to show you how to maximize your potential!
GREAT FOR STAFF
We have designed this event with staff attendance in mind. Not only will your staff learn practical ideas for better marketing, sales, and student retention, they will gain even greater motivation about being a part of the Taekwondo field.
Remember, having passionate and hard working staff is great. But it’s not enough! Your staff need education to upgrade their skills, role models who set an example to follow, and a vision of what a greater level of success looks like. They can find all of that at the TKD Professionals Convention.
Bring your staff for the weekend, and they will be more inspired and effective all year long!
Testimonials
“My husband and I love coming to the TKD Professional Convention each year because it is a great opportunity to listen to some of the best TKD minds in the business share their ideas and mindsets. It also gives a great support opportunity to network with people from all over the country. We get the chance to take the best of what we learn and implement these ideas in our schools to keep them truly World Class.”
Master Vicky McDowell
“As a multiple school owner, I have joined and attended many different organizations and marketing seminars. I can honestly say that the Taekwondo Professionals Convention has been the most helpful for my team and I and therefore have attended almost every seminar for the past 15 years. The ideas and strategies shared are based on universal concepts that can help Martial Arts schools of all sizes and locations as evidenced by the successes of their affiliates and the attendees. I am a firm believe that you are the average of the people you surround yourself with. I always send my team to the seminar because besides learning/sharpening different skills, they always come back more motivated and focused because of the positive and energetic environment surrounding the seminar and its attendees. The networking and camaraderie alone are worth more than the cost of attendance.”
Master George Hwang
“In the Taekwondo industry, we are grateful for the existence of Taekwondo Professionals. Taekwondo Professionals and World Class Masters support our growth by bestowing knowledge, helping us set goals, and providing a diverse network. As business owners, masters, and lifelong learners, we always have questions about improving our organization and solving our problems. The first person that pops up in our mind to get help is Master Mertens because we know World Class Taekwondo has encountered the same challenges we have and we can depend on them to share their wisdom. Taekwondo Professionals are the most significant resource for our staff growth. After our team meets these Taekwondo industry leaders the leaders understand our vision and picture their bright future with us.”
Master Seungrok Kim and Master Regina Im- Korea Taekwondo-KTKD
“The Taekwondo Professionals National Convention is THE BEST business seminar a school owner can attend. I have attended countless seminars and business coaching summits for over 20 years and I wholeheartedly believe that Taekwondo Professionals is the one I leave with actionable ideas that produce results quickly and with the integrity of our legacy strengthened.
Master Mertens brings together the best of the best who openly share how our industry evolves and their best practices to thrive in it. I look forward to meting you all at the next Taekwondo Professionals National Convention.”
Master Nickie Quan
“Master Kim and I have been members of TKD Professionals for over approximately 5 years. During that time there are truly just not enough words to describe how appreciative we have been throughout the length of this time exploring TKD Professionals. It has not only been the anchor in our strive for success, but it has enhanced our abilities to expand our minds mentally, our school physically and hearts emotionally in a positive and nurturing way. TKD Professionals have helped pave the way for so many martial arts schools through some pretty tough times that would have either make or break a school. We have trained our staff with all the videos, slides and Zoom training available to us. Master Kim and I are very grateful and look forward to the upcoming seminar.”

“One of the best things I did in 2022 was INVEST in my team to be a part of TKD Pros National Convention! I Brought 8 of my team members to be part of last year’s event and have loved the results. My team grew closer together with the activities throughout the weekend, gained so much practical knowledge through seminars, were able to gain perspective from meeting others in similar situations and positions in other schools and most importantly acquired a vision that the future of our industry is strong and absolutely will allow for a beautiful career and life in our organization!”
