The Eagle Team is one of Korea’s premier Martial Arts All-Black Belt Demonstration/Performance groups. Headed by Grandmasters Jung Hwan Jin and Chang Joo Park, the Eagles travel the world dazzling their audiences with high flying kicks and amazing feats of board breaking. The demonstration and show put on by these children, ages 6– 16, is second to none!
300-500 boards are broken at every show with high-flying action! It was an amazing display of great talent, focus, discipline and concentration. Taekwondo, an Olympic sport featured in the 2008 Beijing Games, is based on traditional Korean Martial Arts, and is one of the world’s most popular martial arts due to its organization, the benefits of confidence, fitness and focus and its trademark spectacular kicking techniques.
On thier visit to Arizona, the Team was featured on KPHO Channel 5 News and KTVK Channel 3 News. Mayor Mary Manross proclaimed the week of August 13 - August 19 2008 as official Korean Eagle Teakwondo Demonstration Team Week. While here in the United States, the Korean Eagle Team has performed for thousands of children in public and private schools, at Shriner’s Childrens Hospitals, sporting events and for local Dignitaries and Officials. Touring around the world, the Team has performed at Buckingham Palace and more.
