    We started Tmax since my son was four years old, and now he is six. Initially, we intended to enable him to concentrate and follow instructions while simultaneously improving his coordination of hands and feet. Subsequently, he has been able to pay attention and focus better than previously, despite its slight improvement. Despite this minor enhancement, we are pleased with the progress. Master Lee is exceedingly kind and accommodating to all his students, particularly with tiny tigers class. He encouraged them to persist with their lessons. Despite Master Lee's serious demeanor. When he joke, all will laughed with him but when serious, all will be really serious during lessons. Following many classes, we sensed our son was improving in class while still diligently developing his hand-eye coordination. Recently, however, Master Lee has been notably absent from the tiny tiger classroom. The Master moulin exhibits a less than enthusiastic demeanor, although he maintains an intense level of seriousness in his teaching. It is possible that he has previously tutored younger students, and thus, his intensity in teaching may be heightened. However, it is crucial for him to exhibit more joy during the classroom experience. Furthermore, we have observed a significant number of mosquitoes present inside the gym. These mosquitoes necessitate their elimination to prevent potential health issues among children.

Grand Master Lim and ALL the instructors are amazing--patient, encouraging, and truly dedicated to helping each student grow both in skill, confidence and discipline. We've seen such positive changes in our son's focus, discipline, and self-esteem since he started. The classes are well-organized, energetic, and fun, while still maintaining a strong sense of respect and structure. It's clear that the school cares deeply about each child's progress, both on and off the mat. If you're looking for a Taekwondo program that builds character as much as it teaches martial arts, K Taekwondo is the place to be!

We randomly stopped by K Taekwondo on a Saturday (they were doing belt testing) and the kids loved what they saw. They have a really nice intro package (something like 6 weeks and free uniform for 40 dollars) and the kids enjoyed it from the get go. They have been going now for 3 months and overall the experience has been great. The instructors are great and the Grand Master is amazing. Kids look forward to the weekly classes (2 classes per week) and we are impressed by all they have learned to date. Would definitely recommend, for kids and teens and adults alike (they have a separate adults class).

    My 6 year old son has been a student here for a year and a half. The instructors and staff are…read moreextremely courteous and friendly. Master Shin is usually the instructor when we attend the classes. He has patience with the kids, thoroughly explains all the steps and can be strict to the children when needed. As a parent, I appreciate an instructor stepping in and reiterating my son home values and philosophy of what kids no longer have these days (such as trust, integrity, confidence, and focus). The students also learn about home rules, how to show respect to one another and most importantly to family members. It sounds cheesy but after moving up to a green belt, I have noticed tremendous maturity and focus on my child's part. My son loves attending the classes (2 times/week) as well as his sparring class (1/week). He enjoys running around with warm-up exercises, learning his forms and learning self-defense techniques. Each month there is a belt test in which children will be tested their forms to go onto the next high belt. TKD is just like any other extra curricular activity (tennis, basketball and piano). If you don't practice, you will never get good at your sport or talent. As for my son, he knows practicing and achieving a new belt makes him feel confident. He understands that every time he works hard for something, the result is rewarding. I can't say if the cost for TKD class is expensive or not. I can only say it is worth it since there are 2 classes offered/week and a free sparring class that is included ( one time fee of $175 for equipment). This week he will be going to his first TKD tournament. Win or not, it will be a good experience for him to see how other kids practice and do well on their forms. I have to say after a year of TKD, his footwork and coordination has improved along with his maturity level.

    I took 4 years of martial arts when I was a teenager and my son (age 14 and now with 7 years…read moreexperience) is a black belt in karate. When we started looking in this area for what will become his new dojo, we were open to starting over in a new style, so we read all the reviews and websites for all the local instructors and then visited the advanced classes of the 9 within our acceptable travel distance. Both of us being experienced and knowing the path to black belt can take many years, we committed to really finding the right instructor/school for him by training with the 4 of those 9 that we liked best. SK Taekwondo was the fourth of the four we've tried and where we've ended up staying. Due to Covid, we waited over a year to try this place because they weren't allowing parents to watch while Covid was in full swing. We've been here for over 10 months now and it was definitely worth the wait. After a couple months of my son training here, my wife even signed up! SK Taekwondo is 5 stars all the way and I have so many good things to say about it. When we first started reviewing martial arts schools in the area, our intuition said SK would be the place we'd end up at because the classes looked like they were super fun and the training facility was huge and beautiful. It had great parking and a large area with seating for parents to watch. The little kids' classes were especially fun to watch with a dedication to both fun and discipline that was clear in both the joy of the students while training and the speed and enthusiasm they all demonstrated with lining up, doing drills and exercises, enthusiastically answering "yes sir!" as they did, etc. The school also has systems in place to support their younger students in getting good grades and being responsible and respectful at home. For the adult classes, which start at age 13, the same level of discipline and fun are encouraged. Every class consists of a warmup and stretching followed by technique training. Almost all exercises are partner exercises, so my son got to know other students quickly and there is a real sense of community. The instructors are all very knowledgeable and absolutely wonderful people, kind and supporting, friendly and welcoming to both students and parents like me who are just watching, and clearly dedicated to the sport. Instructors rotate and the classes are quite different each time, which our whole family enjoys. In the 10+ months we've been training, I can say that not a single class has been the same as any other. The foundational skills are included in everything and forms are usually 5-10 minutes at the end. The rest is really varied but always interesting and a great workout. Equipment like kicking pads, agility ladders, cones, etc. are used frequently and this makes the classes even more fun and diverse. They play music during the warmups and drills and that adds to the fun and energy of the environment too. Fridays are dedicated to sparring, testing is every couple months, and they have a "Black Belt Club" option where you can pay up front for unlimited classes until you get your black belt. This is the best price and what my son and wife both ended up doing. Estimated time to achieve black belt is 2.5 to 3 years if you are dedicated and attend class at least a couple times a week. This place is absolutely amazing and I could not recommend it higher. If you are looking for you or your child, come in and watch or try the actual class you/they will be in. Take advantage of whatever intro offer SK is offering at the time and experience it for yourself. If you do, I'm confident you'll be as happy and impressed as we have been!

AlI have are fond memories of the place. This was in the early 90's. From the stretching (which I hated), the forms and one-steps, to the sparring and board breaking, it was an awesome hobby as a Ninja Turtle, martials arts, and ninja fan. I have good memories of the head instructor and owner, Young Park, who I believe still teaches to this day. He reminded me of Mr. Miyagi from the Karate Kid movies back then and I remember him to very patient and kind. One of my favorite memories was a school wide outing for all the students and families to Wilderness park one Saturday. We participated in a few forms and martial arts exercises, but the bulk of the time was reserved for socializing with one another, playing games, eating, and just having fun! I have a friend whose son recently joined and I guess Young Park still teaches there. He's like an ageless wonder. I highly recommend this place!
