About Us

OUR STORY & MISSION

Building champions and shaping character through the traditional Korean martial art of Taekwondo.

BUILDING CHAMPIONS SINCE 2010

Koteshwor Taekwondo was founded with a vision to bring world-class martial arts training to the heart of Kathmandu. What started as a small dojang with just a handful of students has grown into one of Nepal’s most respected Taekwondo academies.

Our founder, Nabin Kumar Shrestha, a 6th Dan black belt, established this academy with the belief that Taekwondo is more than just a sport it’s a way of life. Under his guidance, we have trained over 500 students, produced national champions, and built a community of martial artists who embody the tenets of Taekwondo.

Today, we are affiliated with the Nepal Taekwondo Association and recognized by World Taekwondo. Our students have represented Nepal in international competitions and brought home medals that make our entire nation proud.
