    My daughter has been attending this TaeKwonDo academy for a little over a year, and the growth I've…read moreseen in her--both on and off the mat--has been incredible. What started as an activity has truly become her passion. Mr. Baker is extremely knowledgeable and intentional in the way he teaches. He creates an environment built on trust, respect, and high expectations. He is firm with his students, but that's part of what makes his instruction so impactful. Life isn't all sugar cookies and rainbows, and he understands that he's not just teaching kicks and forms--he's helping shape character, resilience, discipline, and confidence. I've watched my daughter grow in focus, accountability, perseverance, and self-belief. She walks a little taller now, carries herself with more confidence, and takes pride in her progress. I am so grateful she has found something she truly loves and a mentor who is preparing her not just for the next belt, but for the real world. Highly recommend to any family looking for more than just a sport--this academy builds strong kids from the inside out.

    My daughter has been a dedicated student at Virginia Tae Kwon Do for several years. During this…read moretime, we have invested not only our time and money--$110 per month plus testing fees and gear--but also our trust in the leadership of this school. She progressed from white belt to black belt through hard work and discipline. Unfortunately, that same level of discipline and professionalism has not been modeled by the school's leadership. The head instructor, Mr. Baker, regularly brings his personal political views into the classroom environment. He has shared disturbing anecdotes about immigrants and political talking points that are completely inappropriate for a space where he holds authority over young students. This is especially harmful in a diverse class that includes Black and Brown children, some of whom may be personally affected by the issues he references. I respectfully asked Mr. Baker to keep politics out of the classroom and to be mindful of the impact his words could have on children. He agreed, and he said that he wouldn't bring it up again. However, we soon found out that he was continuing to discuss his views. We tried to address it again. Rather than engaging in a thoughtful dialogue or committing to maintaining a neutral, inclusive environment, he told me that our daughter's membership was canceled within minutes of our follow-up conversation. No regard for her years of dedication or accomplishments. Just immediate dismissal. It is deeply disappointing that a student who put in the work to reach black belt status is now forced to find another school--not because of poor behavior or lack of commitment, but because the instructor prioritized pushing his personal agenda over providing a respectful, inclusive environment for all students. I sincerely hope Virginia Tae Kwon Do reconsiders how it handles both parent concerns and the power dynamic that exists between instructors and children. Martial arts should teach integrity, respect, and self-control--not fear, division, or ideology.

    My husband and son have been doing Jiu Jitsu on and off for 5 years. We met coach Ted at a previous…read moregym where he trained our son from foundational Jiu Jitsu to advance and competition level Jiu Jitsu. When Coach Ted opened his new gym we wanted to check it out and see the good work him and his wife were putting into their new venture. This Jiu Jitsu gym is unlike the others locally, it is not all about revenue, profits or competition. They are very family oriented and the most affordable around town. Not only is it affordable but they offering great quality training. They offer kids classes, adult classes, women defense classes, open mat training and private lessons. They accept all levels of Jiu Jitsu. Also first week is free. They don't do contracts, it is month to month so you are not stuck with a membership if you decide Jiu Jitsu is not for you. Coach Ted's daughter, Christina is very famous in the Jiu Jitsu community. She competed for years and won gold in many world wide competitions. You will also get to see Christina on the mat training as well. The gym is very clean, and a pretty good size for training. They offer free open mat time for kids and adults on Wednesdays which is where you will get to see people from all gyms come and hang out and roll. Another thing I love is coach Ted is all about the love of the sport and not pushing people to compete or to pay more for every little thing the gym offers. If you are looking for a new gym or just to get into Jiu Jitsu for yourself or for your kids, check out Chaos.

    If you are interested in starting jiujitsu for yourself or your child, this is the place too do it…read more Come on in the first week is FREE, you don't need anything to start, just some desire to learn. Great group of guys, small group setting. No pressure, you go your own pace, professor Ted is great and will answer your questions. Guys are happy to help you learn techniques. Recommend starting on Thursday, will give you time to think about what you have learned and give yourself time to rest on the weekend you'll be excited about going back on Monday to learn more.
