Northeastern Tae-Kwon-Do Academy is founded with the express purpose of
providing the highest quality of training and education for students of
the martial arts.
Our students consist of the young, the old, male and female, those
gifted with natural abilities and those who find the martial arts a
challenge at every level. Tae-Kwon-Do is an art for anyone who strives
for continuous improvement, and recognizes the emphasis on sound
techniques and their physical mastery to find their indomitable spirit.
Our students, who express the desire for continuous improvement for
themselves, are the serious martial artists for which this academy
dedicates its goals.
- To provide world class training and education through internal and
external affiliates.
- To provide the continuous improvement of our students by individual
attention and mentoring.
- To help guide students on the path where Tae-Kwon-Do becomes a way of
life.
Northeastern Tae-Kwon-Do Academy was founded in September of 1993. After
being affiliated with several other schools I decided to open my own
academy. Our grand opening was October 15, 1993. The School was located
in the Old Mill at 34 Maple St., Bellingham, MA, then moved to it's
current location in the center of Bellingham. The doors to our Hopkinton
location opened ten years later in September, 2003. The Instructors at
that time were Gary Wall, Keith McLinden, Jeanne Donnelly and myself,
Norman McLinden. In September of that year I was made State
Representative of Unified Tae-Kwon-Do International. We started off with
approximately 12 students.
The basis of Northeastern Tae-Kwon-Do Academy is built on improving ones
"Self" through training; but, it is more than that...It is a family of
people that provide knowledge, ideas, and support. It is a family of
friends working on similar objectives to obtain the same goal. We learn
not only from our highly qualified instructors but from each other!
"I am a better overall person since I have joined the NETKD
academy!"
