About
Thank you for your interest in New Creation Martial Arts!
New Creation Martial Arts was established in 2011 by Mr. John Driver and his family. NCMA is a proud charter of the Chungdokwan Taekwondo Alliance. As of 2019, Megan Mestel has become the head instructor. Martial Arts is more than learning to kick, spar, and break boards. It’s about courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and having an indomitable spirit. In fact, these qualities are known as the “Tenets of Taekwondo”, and they describe the character of a well balanced and mature martial artist. You will learn a lot more about these character qualities as you advance through the program. Of course, physical training is a vital part of this program too, and you will receive quality instruction that will allow you to earn certified belt rankings through the Chungdokwan Taekwondo Alliance.
This program is organized in a way that allows you to work at your own pace. If you happen to be gifted and/or willing to practice diligently, you will likely advance at a rapid pace. If you are the more laid-back type, or do not have a lot of time to dedicate to the class and practice, you will still benefit greatly. However, you will find that you may not advance as quickly. Either way, we are sure you will find this a fun and rewarding experience.
