GRAPEVINE-HEB MARTIAL ARTS teaches the Youn Wha Ryu System of Tae Kwon Do/Karate, created by Grand Master Man H. Han.  The academy was founded in 1990 by Masters Jean and Scott Good in Grapevine, Texas.

THE SCHOOL IS UNIQUE in many ways. Its family-oriented, club-like atmosphere is enhanced by the amply-padded training floors and separate men's and women's dressing rooms. The combined focus on Adult and Children's training brings with it a diversity of instructors, and high testing standards. 

​

THE INCLUSION of complementary martial arts such as Aikido and T'ai Chi, and other related training, differentiates the Grapevine-HEB academy by offering not only a more rounded approach to your martial arts journey, but something for everyone in the family.

UNLIMITED, FULL-HOUR CLASSES ARE OFFERED 6 days a week.  With two separate workout areas, classes can be divided appropriately by age and belt level to better serve students' individual needs and learning styles. 

GRANDMASTER MAN HEE HAN (9th degree Black Belt) is the founder of the Youn Wha Ryu System of martial arts.  It is based in traditional Tae Kwon Do, incorporating elements of Hapkido, Karate, Kung Fu and Judo. 
 

GRANDMASTER HAN was originally trained in the traditional Japanese Martial Arts of Karate, Judo and Hapkido, and the Chinese Arts of Kung Fu and T’ai Chi Chuan before being involved in the post-occupation formulation of Korean Tae Kwon Do. He also holds advanced degrees in Kendo, Hapkido, Jidokwan, and Hwarang-do.

MASTER JEAN GOOD (6th degree Black Belt), Master Christy Good (6th degree Black Belt) and Master Scott T. Good (5th degree Black Belt) were students of Grandmaster Han for 19 years. They are co-owners and instructors at Grapevine/HEB Martial Arts Academy.

MASTER JEAN is our President, Master Instructor and Program Director.  Master Christy is our Vice President and Lead Instructor.  Master Scott is an Instructor as well as Business Manager, including Management and Administration of Advertising & Promotions and Retail Sales. 

​

SINCE LEAVING their corporate jobs, the Goods have brought the Grapevine school from a small gathering of students in the basement of a corporate fitness facility to its current location with Adult and Children's classes.

THE GOODS ARE DEDICATED to improving the lives of their students through training in the Martial Arts, with emphasis on respect, discipline, integrity, perseverance, dignity and compassion.

ALL INSTRUCTORS MUST complete a rigorous certification course, including a minimum of 120 class teaching hours.  They are required to maintain their certification with yearly refresher courses. 

OUR DIVERSITY of instructors - which includes six at the Master level - combined with the consistency of our curriculum, ensures our students learn and progress to their full potential.
