President of the school, Prof. Miguel A. Gallardo, 3d Dan Black Belt Tae Kwon Do, Black Belt Aikido and Black Belt Karate-Do, has been training and teaching different martial arts for over 30 years and has had many opportunities to train and compete all over the world.
Martial arts in general has many positive aspects at both the physical and mental levels. Besides teaching us very effective self defense, they keep our bodies young, flexible and strong. They improve our condition and together with a healthy lifestyle they protect us from many diseases, now and in the future.They give us self-confidence, self control, and the desire to keep developing ourselves physically, mentally and spiritually, and stress is notably decreased
The school is located on Calle Corazón, between the 5th Avenue and Calle 14 in the center of Playa del Carmen, Q.R.
