What is Tae Kwon Do and how is it different from other Martial Arts?
Martial arts originated thousands of years ago as methods of self-defense, with Tae Kwon Do being developed in Korea. Tae Kwon Do places a strong emphasis on kicking techniques, making it particularly effective for enhancing balance, flexibility, and endurance.
At what age can kids start?
Our experience indicates that most children ages four and up can join Tae Kwon Do classes. At this age, your child can take our trial lesson program, where our instructors will work with them one-on-one to assess their readiness for group classes.
Do Martial Arts increase aggressiveness?
Our instructors emphasize that martial arts are meant for exercise and self-improvement, not for bullying. Tae Kwon Do students learn to be humble, courteous, and respectful, and they are taught to be mindful of when and where to apply their self-defense skills.
How safe is it to learn Martial Arts?
Tae Kwon Do is both safe and enjoyable for students of all ages and abilities. Expert instructors guide classes, teaching techniques step-by-step so students can learn at their own pace. We prioritize safety with a comprehensive stretching routine, matted flooring, and protective gear.
What if I never did Martial Arts before or if I'm out of shape?

New students enjoy one-on-one instruction that introduces them to the fundamentals of Tae Kwon Do.
