ABOUT HIGH KICK TAEKWONDO
Building Confidence, Discipline & Community Since 1999
High Kick Taekwondo has proudly served Sayville families for more than 27 years. Classes are led by Master Peter Speciale in a positive, family-friendly environment.
A Lifelong Martial Artist. A Local School Built for Families
Master Peter Speciale has been dedicated to martial arts since 1993 and has spent decades teaching children, teens and adults in Sayville. As a 5th Dan Kukkiwon-certified Taekwondo instructor, his goal has always been bigger than teaching kicks and forms, it’s helping students become more confident, disciplined and capable both inside and outside the dojang.
His teaching style blends structure and discipline with encouragement, patience and fun. Students are challenged to keep improving, but they’re also given the space to learn at their own pace and feel proud of their progress.
