About Us
Founded in 2004, Pure Taekwondo began as a private training venture in Silicon Valley, providing instruction to professionals and executives from companies such as Google, LinkedIn, Apple, and NVIDIA. What started as exclusive instruction grew through word of mouth, creating demand for a dedicated training facility.
In 2012, Kukkiwon-certified 7th Dan Black Belt Grandmaster Carlo officially opened Pure Taekwondo to the public in Sunnyvale. With over 40 years of Taekwondo experience, he built the academy on authentic Olympic-style training standards rooted in Kukkiwon certification. As a Kukkiwon-certified International Master and Poom/Dan Examiner, he continues to mentor students from beginner level to advanced level black belts to even national-level competitors.
Today, Pure Taekwondo is recognized as a leading martial arts academy in Sunnyvale and the South Bay. We offer structured Taekwondo programs for children, teens, adults, and competitive athletes in a disciplined and supportive training environment. Our mission is to help every student develop confidence, technical excellence, and lifelong strength through authentic martial arts training.
