The Merafuentes Lee Brothers Tae Kwon Do Elite Team contains some of our strongest and most talented Black Belts. This team travels across the United States as well as Internationally to perform for public audiences and learn advanced knowledge in the art of Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido. These young men and women perform amazing tricks, synchronized poomsae, advanced self defenses and weapon techniques as well as acrobatic board breaking, skills only gained through hard work and dedication. Some of the places these students have trained and performed include South Korea, Japan, North Carolina, Canada, as well as all over the state of California. These students are also strong leaders in giving back to the community, and have raised funds for local charities as well as engaged in community service throughout Turlock.
