We took both of our girls, one a very shy and reluctant 6 year old and our youngest and most rambunctious almost 4 year old to begin their Taekwondo tutelage under Mr. Teran. Needless to say, our oldest has certainly come out of her shell and surprised us all. This school is not just any ordinary Taekwondo studio, this is more like family. Each and every child is acknowledged, respected and given the opportunity to be their best self. Not only does he care about their progress in Taekwondo but he also makes sure to check their academic progress in school and reinforce the importance of education and discipline. I can't say enough good things about this place but more than kind words, what my kids have learned speaks for itself.

Please read all previous reviews, very accurate! We signed…read moreup our kindergarten student to teach her discipline and respect for her teachers at school. Upon dropping $3200 for a parent/child combo for the year, we hoped that the sticker shock would wear off after that investment. The instructors are incredible and remember every students name, making it a very personal experience! They help the children stay focused and truly make the sessions special for the kids. Can't say enough positive about the daily instructors and staff at Seos. After starting for about 2 weeks, my daughter and I were pulled into these "check up" sit downs in the side offices. These sessions quickly changed to The Masters Club and how our student needed to enroll in these extra classes and instruction. These 2-4 year contracts added another $240/month to tuition for our 6 year old student. These check ups happened 9 more times in the first 5 weeks of our beginnings at Seos. To recap, $3k/year plus another $240/month for the Masters club to for the next 2-4 years. We completed our year commitment and said our goodbyes. Good intentions, bad sales practices.

Master Seo and Mister Seo are amazing! Especially Mister Seo is consistently at the Arvada location and his enthusiasm is equally consistent. Over a year has passed since we formally left SEO's Martial Arts. I had settled to let our poor experience go (the online reviews already speak for themselves). Yet, our family continues to be upsold. It is this unrelenting asking for money is what has me returning to finally leave a review. We stayed for 2 reasons. We had already paid for a full year and they make it extremely clear that they make no reimbursements under any circumstances. And when our family commits to something, we do it. I think that's valuable for kids to see modeled. Second reason: the instructors. And that's where it really counts, right? Who the kids actually engage with. I suspect martial arts is incredible! In fact, I know several people who love it, but all go to different studios. If you're interested, I'd suggest a different studio. Why? Please see the last 7 screenshots for a very in-depth explanation, supported with time stamps and real examples. But in summary: * Master O'Halloran is persistent in communication with the end goal to sell. * Whom is staff can be unclear. Students are frequently asked to instruct, review, or hold pads - even brand new students. * While not all non-teaching staff is rude, many are. A very few instructors as well. * A quarter of class, especially for littler kids, is frequently typical school games. Not martial arts. * Communication is poor, redundant, and (again) the end goal is a commitment to spend more money. * Unexpected fees arise frequently. If you don't comply, the student is not allowed to graduate to the next belt.

Understand the Terms Before Committing…read more Castle Rock Martial Arts offers a structured and engaging training experience, but as with any membership-based program, it's important to fully understand the terms before enrolling. After reading some of the other reviews, it seems that I share a similar experience with others regarding clarity around membership commitments and billing practices. In fact, 4 out of 14 reviews (including mine)(at this current time), which is over 28%, express concerns about the same issues. Understanding details such as contract terms, recurring charges, and the cancellation process can help prevent misunderstandings. Setting clear expectations from the start ensures a smoother experience.
