KICKS Tae Kwon Do offers classes five days a week and has been around for over 20 years. The stated goal is to empower students to defend themselves with their hands and their feet, on the ground or standing, and with their mind, and students are encouraged to use their words first. Students are told to use their ability to be a leader and stay out of bad situations and the wrong group of people who find themselves in trouble, and although students are trained to defend themselves in various situations, fighting is not encouraged. The mission at KICKS Riverside is to provide positive instruction in the mental, physical, and character-building aspects of martial arts, to provide personal attention in training for success, to provide the best facilities in the area, to create a safe, positive, and enthusiastic environment, and to provide inspiration of personal excellence through the example of Black Belts in and out of the Dojo/School. KICKS uses the slogans “Building Strong Minds and Bodies,” “We Transform Lives,” and “Striving For Black Belt Excellence.”
Grand Master Kit Mattson, founder of KICKS, is a world champion in TaeKwondo, a member of the TaeKwondo Hall of Fame, and a representative for the World TaeKwonDo Federation for the Western Region, and his teacher is Grand Master Moon Kyu Im, a Korean National Military leader and hero. KICKS has the opportunity to certify Black Belts directly through Korea and Kukkiwon. Master Jeff Mascolina is the Master Instructor at KICKS Riverside, has over 25 years of martial arts experience, has been teaching for over 15 years, and works with special needs children with ADD/ADHD, Autism, and different forms of physical handicaps.
