It's been five years now. The taekwondo gym has grown incredibly. When my kids started here, I…read moredidn't realize it was fairly new (literally first year). Many of the students were from Balli's waiting for him to open. Now, as a testament to Grand Master Ahn and his staff, there is probably 60 black belts (45 kids, about 15 teen/adults). Within those, probably about a dozen moving up to second degree black belts. The color belt classes have anywhere between 15-20 kids. Although retention for martial arts is especially challenging (especially high school age), he has done significantly well as is demonstrated by the sheer numbers. What to expect from class: 5-6 minutes stretching, 20 minutes focused on group workouts (cardio, drills, etc). The last 20 minutes is focused on belt specific requirements. Tuesday and Thursday afternoons have Women's Self Defense classes, which include the TKD belt requirements and self defense techniques. Their drills include grappling, breaking holds, and knife defense skills. These are generally taught by Master Anthony. Along the line if additional options available from K-Taekwondo include K-Tribe (morning workouts which varies daily: includes yoga, HIIT, outdoor boot camp, and barre). This is with instructor Gail. Taekwondo purists, this is both in my to scoff at. Gail's yoga workouts are no joke, she makes black belts cry. Saturdays are staying busy too with the addition of Gumdo, traditional Korean Swords classes. This is taught by Master Anthony, 5th Degree Black Belt in TKD and Gumdo.

Master Ahn has great classroom control and is strong on form and technique, but he also emphasizes good values and works with parents and teachers to encourage (and require) respect, discipline, self control, cleanliness, good study etc. The students all respect him, but he's also very friendly and personable. His studio is clean and bright. Highly recommend this studio and instructor.

I came to watch my friend's son have a belt grading on a Saturday and I was amazed at how many kids…read more(and a few adult students) were at the event. The kids were all very well behaved and seemed as though they really enjoyed the event. I have not been to a normal class but it seems the instructors all know the children by their names and are all very nice! When I was a child, I also went to similar martial arts courses but they were not as large and as fun as the class that Cho was giving. I envied the small children having so much fun with each other and with the instructors. I believe this would be a great place for your little ones (or yourself) to come take courses. The venue is quite large in which there are 3 rooms with various equipment. They have mirrors in one room which I assume the children use to watch themselves while they are learning moves. The lounge area has a few couches where the parents and visitors can have a seat and watch the students. They even have three stalls where you can change. I was quite impressed by the one visit. Check it out if you or your child is interested in learning martial arts with some fun instructors.

Horrible experience at this facility. I'd give this rating ZERO stars if it was an option. The…read moreabsolute only thing good about this facility is the owner Mr. Cho. Mr. Cho is an honest, kind man and it's easy to see that he truly cares about the students. However Mr. Cho can't be everywhere at once. My kids were in the before & after school program and the lady who is responsible for that side of the business is horrible !!! Her name is Ms. Key and she is the one who would get the kids late to school, she's not patient and understanding that kids are kids. She would get my son to text me or my wife to see where we were at almost everyday when we were on the way to pick up our kids. We were never late picking up our kids so I have no clue why she would do that. The facility closes At 8:00 the childcare side closes at 6:30 we were alway there between 6:20-6:30 Never late ! The funny thing is when your child gets hurt by accident or another kid she nor her staff calls the parents it seems like they try to cover it up first. This lady also is a very big liar. She has to talk to all the parents everyday to tell them how bad their kids were. And if the kids weren't bad she'll make small stuff up. She'll continue to lie until she gets caught up in it and you confront her about it. Her assistant named Emily calls kids "little shits" and none of this is made up Ms. Key told us herself that Emily said that. After hearing bad reports everyday we got tired of it and just took our kids back to the daycare that they were at before joining taekwondo.

Go in with the understanding that the owner does not care an ounce about customer service. He's…read morethere to only collect the dollars that come in. He is not someone I will give another dollar to. With regards to the classes, understand that the kids will not be actually learning defensive tactics. It's more of a discipline type of class for kids, to learn to follow directions. From what they learn, hard to visualize a kid using anything learned in class outside of the dojo realistically. 30 min classes, 5 min of warmup. 10 min of actual instruction and 15 min of playtime, like playing a game. Not much kids can learn in 10 mins of actual instruction.

If you are looking for a real dojo with real goals and training for your child, this is NOT the…read moreplace. There is a lack of structure and communication. The "coach" sometimes trains the children using fear tactics like "do it because I said so" rather than explaining to a 5-7 year old why they are receiving a consequence for not being on task. The studio manager is lack luster and has horrible communication skills, very quick to get your billing information but you have to ask for all of the pertinent information for the program or you won't receive it. After I had an incident between my kid and the coach and I expressed my concerns, the manager told me "I'm just not on my job like I'm supposed to be..." All of the marketing they do on social media is just for aesthetics, none of that really happens in the studio. Also, parents are allowed to sit and watch each practice and it is family oriented but the studio doesn't set any expectations of the parents to be courteous of the practice and keep conversation low in volume or take them outside of the small one room space. When asked if they could set an expectation about the loud conversations being had every practice, I was told it's "not something we can do anything about." After all the trouble I've had with the place I really would like to remove my kid but he keeps telling me he's not a quitter and wants to finish the rest of the program... wish me luck...
