The location is perfect for the surrounding Green Mountain neighborhood and allows easy access to 6th Avenue and C-470 for those outside of the area.

The Colorado Taekwondo Institute’s Lakewood location offers classes for all ages. The classes are tailored for each age group. The instructors train for years in teaching techniques through Colorado Taekwondo Institute’s advanced weekend training program. The instructors learn how to train the body, mind and spirit with the structured training program founded from the traditions of Korean martial arts. All classes build a foundation upon physical fitness and basic martial arts techniques. These basics provide the building blocks to learn self-defense, discipline and self-directed learning that improves all areas of life.

The classes are held in clean, spacious and safe workout rooms inside the Green Mountain campus. The rooms have self-made suspension floors that allow for students young and old to practice and perfect advanced techniques without the fear or risks of uncushioned floors. The workout areas are well equipped with all equipment needed for the basic and advanced techniques and training that are part of the curriculum.

The curriculum of the Colorado Taekwondo Institute is a tried and trusted program. The basis of the program came from Korea to America in 1969 by Grandmaster Lee H. Park.  The Colorado Taekwondo Institute has been around over 40 years, and has been in the Lakewood area for over 30 years. The founder, Grandmaster James Sautel is an 8th degree black belt in Taekwondo. He leads the instruction and training of all the instructors of the 5 local Denver area schools. The lead instructor at Green Mountain is Grandmaster Merinda Sautel who is a 7th degree black belt. She has many years of experience as a professional teacher as both a Jefferson County School teacher and a martial arts instructor.

The Colorado Taekwondo Institute’s focus and mission is “To encourage world-class leadership through educational excellence and Moo Sul Kwan martial arts traditions”. The main focus is on education and providing a complete and positive learning experience for every student. That experience is enhanced by a wide variety of activities. From the many tournaments, the students learn to value competition, respect other competitors and manage the stresses of preparing and performing in front of others. The many training opportunities from expos, symposiums and seminars provide ample opportunity to learn from many different instructors and improve. Part of the experience of being part of Colorado Taekwondo Institute is to engage in the many social engagements and events that build friendships and good human relationships.
