Eagle Tae kwon do History
Our school originally began as Spartan Taekwondo 19 years ago at St. Lorenz school in Frankenmuth, Michigan under the head instruction of 7th Degree Black Belt Master Scott Stedry. The school is dedicated to the art, science and sport of taekwondo and bound by its five tenets: Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control and Indomitable Spirit. Prior to Spartan Taekwondo, Master Stedry led the following schools:

Eagle Taekwondo is part of the American Chung Do Kwan, Limited Association (ACDKL), which has schools and instructors in various parts of the United States. As stated in its website, the purpose of ACDKL is to bring the Korean martial art of Taekwondo to the common public for all to learn and benefit from, and to improve society and advance the art and sport of Taekwondo.
