    Great taekwondo school with excellent instructors and coaches who know how to teach and connect…read morewith students of all ages. The culture is positive, respectful, and intentional. The facility is spacious, well maintained, and in a great location. They emphasize not only taekwondo skills and self-defense, but also discipline, confidence, and character development. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a well-rounded program!!!

    I first met the coaches and students of Sparta Taekwondo at local tournaments and was immediately…read moreimpressed by their friendliness. We were invited to an "invite only" multi-gym rumble, where kids sparred in a no-points, no-pressure environment. All the kids from my dojang loved it. My boys also attended a sparring clinic with Coaches Arven and Kris, both world-class level athletes. The individual coaching was top-notch, and my kids thoroughly enjoyed training with them. The dojang is well-kept, and the mat is nicer than standard tournament mats. Parents can watch from the hallway through large windows. The facility includes a snack bar, and the bathrooms are clean. **Pro-tip:** Park in the parking lot near the dojang--it's a shorter walk and usually has more open spots. Overall, Sparta Taekwondo offers an excellent environment for both training and community. Highly recommend!

    I've known Master Kim for almost 20 years now. I was a student at Dae Han when they used to be in…read morethe same shopping center as the Safeway on Contra Costa where Nation's is. I started taekwondo in middle school because I was an angry teenager who had a lot of pent up anger and didn't know how to channel or process my emotions. I stopped shortly before I started high school, because I wanted to play football in high school. Recently, I made the decision that I wanted to come back and earn my black belt and to lose weight. I've struggled with my weight my entire life, and I decided to make some changes, and when I was making the decisions on what my weight loss plan would look like, I decided that I wanted to restart taekwondo as part of my goals. It also helped that in the years between the time I stopped doing taekwondo to when I came back, I would run into Master Kim randomly around the community, from shopping at Costco, having dinner with friends, and whatever else, I always saw Master Kim in and around the community, so it helped us stay in touch If you're a parent with little kids and you're thinking about signing your kids up here, I hope you do. If you're an adult and you're thinking about signing up here, I hope you do. The teens and adults class (middle school and older) is directly after the kids classes. Whenever I hear Master Kim coaching up and encouraging the students, he uses the same gentleness and empowering techniques as 20 years ago. I looked at some of the other reviews from years past, and if you take the time to read some of them, you'll see the same thing from different parents, "My kid couldn't be more excited about coming to Dae Han after school" this, or "My kid's confidence has increased tenfold, a hundredfold," that. Coming back for me has been coming back to the same, positive environment that I left all those years ago, and I'm glad to be back. There's a culture here that Master Kim and Mrs. Kim worked hard to instill, and whether you're a parent or student, you'll see the difference it makes. For the other instructors, they're fantastic. I know and remember Mr. Konstantin from when he was also a student here from my first time here as a middle schooler. Himself, Master Josh, Master Edell, Mr. Nolan, Mr. Hayden, and Ms. Victoria are outstanding teachers who love what they do here. I can't speak to the other black belts, but in my limited interactions with them, they're also good communicators and great stewards and representatives of the values of taekwondo that taekwondo wants to instill in everyone who studies it. I'm glad to be back with Dae Han, and I look forward to seeing where the rest of the journey takes me.

    My child has been here for 2+ years and it's been amazing and rewarding. The principles installed…read morein Taekwondo has benefited him in other areas of school, sports, and confidence.

    5 stars because there's no 10 stars!…read more My family and I have been training at Dogo Krav Maga for about six months now, and I can't say enough good things about this place. From day one, we were welcomed like we'd been part of the community for years. Gustavo, Gustavo Jr., and Samantha are incredible coaches -- knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about teaching proper technique. They have a way of breaking things down so anyone can understand, whether you're brand new or already have some experience. More importantly, they really care. They notice when you're improving, they push you when you need it, and they always make sure you're learning in a safe, supportive environment. The atmosphere here is exactly what we were looking for. It truly feels like a family. No egos, no intimidation -- just people of all ages and skill levels learning, growing, and having fun together. In the six months we've been here, I've watched my family's confidence, fitness, and overall mindset improve in a way I honestly didn't expect. Being part of this community has made a real difference for us, and we're grateful to be here. If you're considering Krav Maga or just looking for a positive place to get stronger and more confident, Dogo Krav Maga is the real deal. Highly recommend.
