My son has been a little tiger at the Cinco location for a few months now. I was honestly thinking…read moreshort term commitment when I first signed him up because I wasn't sure taekwondo would be a good fit for him. He is 4, has a very hard time sitting still, is very playful & is easily distracted (but he really does want to do well.) All the master instructors & assistants are patient, lead by example & go above & beyond for my son. Master Jin however, is my son's favorite & has truly made an impression on us! He engages with him, motivates & influences him to focus & succeed by acknowledging his needs & helps him build confidence in the best way possible! He is a great leader! They are all very skilled great leaders & are playful with the little tigers, which makes the class fun for the kids & parents to watch. Do I recommend this place? Absolutely!

It's a very empowering, nurturing and playful environment for the kids. It of course gets a little more serious for the older groups but for the littles they have so much fun and learn respect, focus and get good exercise while they are out it. Their warmth is infectious and all kiddos are uplifted when they leave.

This Tae Kwon Do school has a new location, but has been in business since 1981. Master O'Connor…read moreholds a 6th degree black belt and is recognized by the Martial Arts Hall of Fame. Besides regular classes this school offers after school care, where the children can do their homework and learn TKD! How great is that?! Also, ask about Woman's Self Defense classes, I know she offers those on occasion. Master O'Connor is patient and thorough, and teaches students courtesy, integrity, self control, perseverance and indomitable spirit in addition to Tae Kwon Do. Basically, to be the best person you can be. Dues are very reasonable in comparison to other schools and this school does NOT make you sign a contract, like some of the other martial arts schools in the area. This school deserves more than 5 stars, they have been a part of the community for many years and have served the community well. Its not too expensive, and definitely has a more authentic feel than taking TKD at your local YMCA or community center.
