Our Story

ChampYon Taekwondo was founded on the South side of Chicago by Grandmaster Luciano when his own Instructor passed on his own school to him in 1982.
He then dedicated his life towards spreading the love of Taekwondo to everyone he has encountered and grew the brand to the International reputation we hold today.

With Grandmaster Medina, his wife, and two children,
Masters Christian and Nedra Medina as full-time instructors,
ChampYon TaeKwonDo is the true definition of a family business.

Our values stem from Grandmaster Medina's teaching and understanding of the Martial Art.

Veronica Ramirez

"At first i was a little skeptical about taking my son to a Taekwondo class. Not knowing what to expect I was against it. Honestly it has been the best experience for my son and for my family. My son absolutely loves to learn new things. Not only has he made new friends but he has also improved on he elasticity and his own persona. All the instructors, the owners and the parents have been completely amazing. Made our family feel like we have another family in our Taekwondo world! If your looking to teach your children structure and discipline this is the place you need to go!
