About McClellan's Taekwondo Academy
MTA Leadership Team
McClellan's Taekwondo Academy is a family owned and operated business. After teaching elementary school for three years, Miss McClellan decided to follow her dream of opening her own taekwondo school. While she is the owner and chief instructor, her parents are often found helping at the taekwondo school when not at their own jobs. In addition to three McClellan's, MTA has several instructors of all ages who assist with classes and judge at testings and tournaments.
