The program leads by example and is deeply rooted in the tenets of traditional Tae Kwon Do. This is no mall chain martial arts school! Master Kim is the real deal! I trained with him consistently for 13 years .He has taught me through the thick and thin of life I started out as a little weakling with no coordination and no prior martial arts training. The school and its environment lovingly led me on a path of self empowerment and compassion. I am now part of a growing community, have trained the wee ones and the black belts and have come to appreciate the benefits of a balanced life. Go here. Send your children here. He rocks!

I can't say enough great things about West America. I first discovered them in Covid as my daughter…read morewas in preschool nearby. Each day, I witnessed kids eagerly walking towards the dojo for team practice. They were calm, parents were present, and it seemed as though they truly wanted to be there. Fast forward 4 years, my daughter is a Purple belt and performs on their demo team. That meant that she performed with West America in the finale of the Asian American parade in San Francisco this year! What a moment that was for our family, especially given her Nai Nai was visiting from Taipei. West America has taught my kids resilience, confidence, friendship building and how to build trust with adults and mentors. They make make friends outside their schools and have created an environment that is uniquely "theirs". Chantal and Roger (sibling owners) give them agency inside the walls. Not only are they learning an ancient skill with self defense components, they are learning respect, focus and working towards a goal (the belt tests). West America is literally home away from home for my children. Where else could I ask a business owner to text me personally when my kid arrives by bike for practice? I wish they could bottle that magic for every after school activity. From a practical standpoint, West America makes parents lives' easy. You may have to chase them down to answer the phone or sign up your child for a class, but remember, they're a small business and the focus is on the children. We love the flexibility of choosing 1 day a week, or unlimited as seasons change for families. We also participate in camps over school breaks and in summer. Current students and those that have never done tae kwon do are welcome and folded into the mix. Again, its magic.

Empowering, Confidence Builder from an Experienced Professional!…read more We had a great private self-defense session with my high-school age daughter and John at our house. My hope is she will never need to leverage the techniques John taught her, but now she has the tools to defend herself if/when necessary. John's approach is very effective. He brings the right tools to train on self-defense and understands how to communicate to the student - including providing relevant stories and examples to make it relatable. Every young woman should go through a course like this: - Situational awareness: How to avoid being in a bad situation (when you are alone, when you are with a male 'friend' who has different intentions, or when you are with friends at 'gatherings' with 'beverages'). - Self-defense: How to defend yourself from an 'friendly' who is aggressive or a true aggressor (how to get out of 'uncomfortable' situations, how to get out of common physical 'holds', and how to fight back). I highly recommend and we will be back for a refresher before my daughter goes off to college.

He creates the environment of fun but also teaches the youngest ones (my son is 5), that you need to listen to be successful, you control your body, it doesn't control you, work hard, and you can do hard things. My son really loves it and I can see the growth. He already can count to 10 in Korean, say thank you, and does things I've never seen him do. My son is a bit of a goofball, and he needs some growth in the area of focus, but I think this will be improved with time in these classes. You get gymnastics, physical conditioning, the art of martial arts and some life skills all in one. What more could you ask for? Well, there is one thing I wish they had. In this heat wave I wish they had air conditioning! Only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5, but I almost wish I could give 4.5 stars because I know that's kind of trivial. It's just when we have to also be present outside and it's 99 degrees, yikes! Yes we could miss a class or two, but that's not what Master Gus would suggest ;). And I agree, if they are willing and get water breaks, they're fine. Maybe I'm just complaining because I'm the one who is hot haha. Try it out! Start at 4 years old! My other son can't wait, and we already had to buy him a tae kwon do uniform on Amazon because big brother had one and he wanted to join (but can't yet as he just turned 3). Can't say enough good things about this place. Hope to see you there!

Taekwondo is the way of the hand and the foot yet the lessons he taught myself and others stuck with us much deeper than just that.

Brantley is a great Taekwondo instructor but a better character teacher, there is none. So I'll say that to say this. Try out a class for any age and see for yourself.

As time goes on he gets better at what he does and he is great! He was recommended by several friends who went to him and took their kids to him. So what separates Scott and his staff from other similar businesses in the area? They are personable, positive, encouraging, and supportive. They have donated their time and expertise to the community by teaching High School and Junior High students useful and proven self defense techniques. He even trained my co-workers and I so we would have necessary and helpful background knowledge. The confidence building, individual contact, commitment, and genuine care the staff takes in teaching all students is unmatched. There is a personal touch here that really has a lasting effect on the students. Thank you for being you. Thank you for giving so much to your community.
