OUR STORY
Building confidence, discipline, and physical excellence through world-class martial arts training since 1997
Mississauga Taekwondo began as a family journey in 1997 when Master Ken Anstruther watched his 6-year-old daughter train with Master Sang Ho Seung. Inspired by what he saw, Ken began his own taekwondo journey a year later, demonstrating that martial arts excellence is achievable at any age.
Despite suffering a complete Achilles tendon tear in 2000, Master Ken’s determination and passion for taekwondo led him to persevere through rehabilitation, eventually achieving the prestigious rank of 6th dan through dedication and continuous self-improvement.
In 2009, as Ken approached retirement age, his advanced coaching training and enthusiasm for taekwondo inspired him to purchase the business from Master Seung. Under his leadership, Mississauga Taekwondo has evolved into a science-informed, family-oriented martial arts center that has trained over 1,000 students of varying skill levels and aspirations.
