The gym is owned and operated by Marcy Shoberg, who is the TKD master, along with her dad and her brother. They are all quite friendly and laid back and seemingly concerned more with self-confidence building than with churning out nationally ranked sparring champions, which is just fine with me. The facility is serviceable although the swamp cooler is a bit wonky and the changing rooms need updating. And the classes are great; my son will soon be a green belt and he loves to go to them, has learned a lot, and made some good friends, too. The only thing I sorta hate about Gold Medal is the lack of free wi-fi in the place; I end up having to flee to the nearest Starbucks instead of hanging around during the class. UPDATE: There has been free wi-fi for a while now, which is an improvement, but the swamp cooler is still wonky and the place is generally in need of updating (the floor paint is chipped, for example). The staffing has also been pared back so that sometimes people coming in to inquire about classes have to wait for someone to show up and wait on them.

As…read morementioned by Jamie B., Master Shoberg focuses more on building self confidence and how to deal with bullying than anything else (at least for the classes directed at the younger set). That being said, they do spend plenty of time focusing on technique and prepare students for tournaments as they gain skill. They are especially good at teaching to children. My son learned enough to move up to the white belt class and has continued to excel, with their guidance, in that class too!
