Beginning as a City of Ottawa recreational program in the late '90s, Tae E. Lee Orleans Taekwondo has served Orleans for 20 years with a commitment to providing top quality martial arts instruction. Specializing in providing a fun, challenging, and innovative program for improving both mind and body, we teach every student as if we were working with our own family.
The curriculum offered by Orleans Taekwondo is the Tae E. Lee Taekwondo Program, based on the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) / Olympic style of Taekwondo. We are the only school in Ottawa's east end to offer this program. The highly detailed and technical curriculum was developed by Grandmaster Tae Eun Lee, an internationally certified 9th Dan Black Belt who teaches in Ottawa.
The Little Ninjas program is a pre-Taekwondo program for preschoolers (aged three to five years) who can't wait to get started. Our Little Ninja's program has been designed to meet the specific needs of three-to-five year olds and keep the children physically fit while developing basic motor skills in a fun and safe environment.
Poomsae (forms) are sequences of movements, consisting of fundamental stances, blocks, punches and kicks, logically arranged in a meaningful order in response to attacks from multiple imaginary assailants. Orleans Taekwondo offers students an opportunity to participate in Competitive Poomsae tournaments, training which helps with focus, power, and coordination.

This is a great place. Master Gibson takes the time to make sure his students get the time they need to practice and more importantly get their own inner confidence and excel beyond the gym.
They have been great for both of my kids and when my others are old enough they will be here as well. I recommend this place to anyone.

I have been a student at Orleans Taekwondo for 16 years. The Owners, Master Lionel Gibson and Lisa Gibson, along with the rest of the instructional team do a great job of instilling confidance, a positive attitude, self discipline, and many other qualities that will serve you well everywhere. They do all this while still providing a fun-filled and memorable expirence that will leave you wanting to come back and learn some more. 5 stars does not even begin to summerize my 16 years at Orleans Taekwondo. It is truely one of a kind and a place from which I hope many will benefit for years to come.

Orleans Taekwondo is a wonderful school. My daughter has been participating in classes since February and it still amazes me how much progress she has made since. Apart from her technical skills, she gained strenght, flexibility and Moo Kwang Philosophy became an important part of her everyday life. Olympic style sparring has helped to build her cofidence and the same time - respect for opponents.
Great instructors and owners Mr and Mrs Gibson, make this place feel like home, not only for students but also for their families and friends. They're patient but firm. They support, encourage, reinforce

Since 2016, I have had my 2 sons (ages 7 and 9) participating in Taekwondo classes with Masters Lionel Gibson and Lisa Gibson at Tae E. Lee Orleans Taekwondo School.
I am thrilled with how much both of my sons have grown in confidence, discipline and physical strength.
The instructors are awesome, and the Masters/Owners are very caring!! This is great place for children (and adults) of all ages and abilities to learn great skills, improve body coordination, build confidence, burn off excess energy - and most important of all have lots of fun!!
Thank you, Sabu Gibson
