The Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy of Chapel Hill offers a wide range of classes for adults: weapons class (nunchakus, bo staff, and sword), sparring, kicking, self defense, and forms. The benefits adult students derive from martial arts training include increased confidence, improved physical fitness, weight loss, mastery of self defense techniques, sparring expertise, and an expanded social community.  The classes are physically challenging while also providing exceptional instruction in technique, giving students both an invigorating work out and an unrivaled martial arts education.

Advanced Academy students take pride in the their roles as mentors to less experienced martial artists, willingly offering support and extra time to assist newer students.  New students find a safe environment in which to learn and be challenged and advanced students have unlimited potential for growth and promotion in the martial arts.

If you have ever considered learning a martial art this is the place to do it.  We look forward to welcoming you to the Academy!

"I had a very specific list of qualities that I was searching for in a dojang.  I needed a knowledgeable and accessible master, supportive and present black belts, and a strong group of adult students and especially women students.  I found all that and more at The Tae Kwon Do & Hapkido Academy of Chapel Hill...Between my family, young daughter, and my day job, I worried that I wouldn't have the time to earnestly train for Tae Kwon Do.  However, after a year at The Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy of Chapel Hill I've discovered that you really can find the time to do the things you love..." Samantha Fiske

"My friend Sara and I joined the Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy of Chapel Hill nearly a year ago.  We were looking for a way to improve our fitness level and self defense skillls in an environment that was fun and empowering for women.  Master Rebollar and the staff at the studio are warm and encouraging in a way that pushes you to challenge yourself and your abilities.  The social aspects of working out with friends are also a great benefit.  You get a fantastic workout without the pain and boredom of running on the treadmill by yourself at the gym.  We would enthusiastically recommend this school to anyone looking for a way to get fit with friends!" Brittain Mahaffey & Sara Boeding

"...when I started looking for another school the Taekwondo & Hapkido Martial Arts Academy of Chapel Hill stood out from the rest. Master Misael Rebollar has instilled in his school superior instruction, high energy, and a sense of fun. His coupling of taekwondo with hapkido adds a new dimension to the self defenses and increases one’s body control as well as one's self confidence...I strongly recommend anyone looking for an active, challenging, and fun martial arts experience to give the Taekwondo & Hapkido Martial Arts Academy of Chapel Hill a long look."
