About the Business
Welcome to HEENAN TAEKWONDO - PAKENHAM DOJANG, located at 99 Bald Hill Road in Pakenham, Australia. Established in 1999, our institution, formerly known as MOON LEE TAE KWON DO PAKENHAM, offers taekwondo classes for individuals of all skill levels. In addition to our regular classes, we provide separate special needs classes and self-defense classes specifically designed for women.
Our chief instructor, James Heenan, is a highly experienced 5th Dan Black Belt in traditional Taekwondo and a 3rd Dan Black Belt in Kukkiwon (World Taekwondo). With over 20 years of teaching experience and strong leadership skills, Master Heenan brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to our institution.
Joining our team in 2020, Master Sung-ki Jeong further enhances our organization with his extensive experience and expertise. He holds a 6th Dan Black Belt in W.T.F. Taekwondo, 6th Dan in Kickboxing with the Korean Association, 6th Dan Black Belt in Hapkido, 6th Dan in Jiujutsu, and a 5th Dan Black Belt in Yong Mong Do (Mixed Martial Arts). Notably, Master Jeong was also the Captain of the Korean National Taekwondo Team.
Taekwondo, which loosely translates to 'the way of the hand and foot', remains one of the most popular forms of martial arts globally. It focuses on kicking and striking techniques influenced by Subak, Taekkyeon, and Okinawan karate. While taekwondo is a fantastic exercise and fitness activity, it also emphasizes moral discipline and respect towards authority, making it an ideal after-school activity for children and a weapon-free self-defense option for anyone.
At HEENAN TAEKWONDO - PAKENHAM DOJANG, we strive to provide the best possible training and leadership to promote our students' physical and mental well-being. Our aim is to instill the core values of courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit that are the foundation of this ancient martial art. Whether you are a beginner or an Australian taekwondo champion, we welcome individuals of all ages and skill levels.
Join us on this journey to become a better version of yourself. Remember, our goal is not to be the best but to be better than we were yesterday. Led by our sabomnim, James Heenan, a 5th dan black belt with over 20 years of experience, we offer a variety of lessons suitable for those looking to get fit, train for competitions, or learn self-defense. Taekwondo is not just about flashy moves; it is a profound philosophy that can be applied to everyday life.
Discover how to keep yourself safe in dangerous situations and reap the rich rewards of this ancient art. Visit HEENAN TAEKWONDO - PAKENHAM DOJANG today and embark on a journey of personal growth and empowerment.

Reviews
"After witnessing the way students and parents are treated at this dojang, im shocked they are still in business. I am 100% certain the business is a money grab. The instructors, students and owners themselves are all banned from entering Australia Taekwondo events for 5 years. If this doesnt open your eyes, nothing will. They started KTAV too, keep yours eyes out. This organisation is as dodgy as the other. Theres a reason why students dont stay on, there turn over of students is attrocious."
"absolutely rude place, wouldn’t bring me or my son here ever again. choose another taekwando"
"Hard to see the classes in the room at the front and the windows were filthy, covid cleaning definitely didn't happen"
"I’m a new student but I’m very happy and look forward to learning more from the instructors. Very patient and thoughtful"
