    East Side Muay Thai is the best Muay Thai gym in the Hampton Roads area! Conveniently located in…read morethe Strawbridge Marketplace Shopping Center. This gym provides a great environment for all levels of traditional Muay Thai with Intro Classes, Kids classes, Advanced Classes, and Fight Team Level! Anyone from no experience to advanced is welcome to class and the community at East Side is wonderful! No big egos and the head coach/owner, Jose is mindful of partner pairing with someone that will take care of you. Everyone is nice and supportive for class making you feel comfortable to train! Kru Jose is an amazing head coach who has a passion for Muay Thai and an impressive portfolio of experience within the Muay Thai community! Jose coaches all classes and provides detailed instructions for class by a combination of learning styles for everyone. What I like the most is that there is accountability and structure for the class to elevate your level of training, and motivate you to push yourself to be better each time. The other coaches Summer and Zedd are also amazing at teaching and supporting the gym! Summer leads women's classes on Saturday mornings and supports intro/advanced classes too making a great impact on women who also train at the gym. The gym has a history of successful active junior and adult fighters with championship titles! The gym is clean and spacious with a full-size boxing ring as well! If anyone is looking for a gym that will teach you the fundamental techniques of traditional Muay Thai and provide a great atmosphere/community this is the gym for you!

    Welcoming , clean, and professional. Learning a lot and looking forward to more. Classes for all…read moreages

    Kim's Hapkido is an unequivocally unique physical and educational experience for students of all…read moreages and abilities. For the past couple of years, our nephew and his other cousin have been students of Master Kim and Mrs. Candice. We've watched his levels of confidence and respect increase through the program(s). It was this building of character that encouraged us to put our own daughter into the studio. While martial arts is the root idea of the studio, the bigger picture is the development of the student- building them up, while utilizing physical and mental ideologies meant to nurture preexisting positive traits and improve that which is lacking. Herein, students are assessed and tested fairly and given every opportunity to succeed. They are treated like real people- as individuals working towards individual goals, in a team style environment. We've seen our daughter grow a ton in this studio. Her continued interest in the program has been the biggest surprise- she's young and usually easily distracted, but she WANTS to be involved in Hapkido! She's excited to go and wants to better herself. Her focus is improving and the physical outlet speaks for itself in these times! It should be noted that recently, Master Kim announced that he, himself has needed to step down due to health and family concerns. Longtime 2nd in command "Mrs. Candice" has taken over the studio and is already proving that she has the will and ability to continue Master Kim's teachings and the ideology of Hapkido to the the next generation of students. After seeing how important it was to the "new" managment (Candice had basically been running the place the entire time we've known her, so not really NEW) to provide continuity for longtime members, we had no reservations about allowing our daughter to pursue the next level of instruction under Mrs. Candice's tutelage. We are excited for what the future holds for our family at Kim's Hapkido- come out and see what the fuss is about!!!

    Would have given a higher rating, if Master Kim was still around…read more Our family enrolled at Kim's Hapkido because of Master Kim's reputation, experience, and leadership as a seventh-degree black belt. We were therefore surprised and concerned to learn that the school would be taken over by an instructor whom we had personally seen only recently advance from red belt to first-degree black belt. The difference in rank and experience between the former and new leadership is significant, and it has reduced our confidence in the level of martial-arts and self-defense instruction being offered. Several more senior instructors with substantially greater experience no longer appear to be teaching at the school. We do not know why they stopped attending, but we wish they would return. We also had concerns about the testing and promotion process. Especially after the most recent graduation this past Saturday. Based on what we personally observed, some students advanced despite not consistently demonstrating proper kicks, techniques, or practical proficiency. It often seemed that receiving the next colored belt was emphasized more than earning rank through demonstrated ability. The school does promote manners, discipline, and responsibility, which we appreciated. However, we would not recommend it to families seeking serious martial-arts or practical self-defense training. Considering the cost, promotion standards, loss of senior instructors, and major reduction in leadership experience, we have decided to look elsewhere.
