At first we couldn't discipline our son and heard about this place. Wow, the instructors are amazing, teaching not only self defence but self control and discipline. He loves Masters Kim's classes. Highly recommended!

I definitely would recommend JK Martial Arts Academy. my son has been going here for almost a year. The master and instructors make sure to make it a fun experience while teaching discipline and techniques. Even with everything going on they made sure to continue classes via zoom. I recommend it for anyone and everyone! They make you feel like family.

My cousins have joined here and they have transformed into well disciplined children! They are always getting good grades in order to still be a part of martial arts, and the instructors are amazing!

I started my kids at JK Martial Arts for Taekwondo in the spring of 2014. 1 month later I joined myself , Hapkido was my choice .
Master Kim and his staff are professional and very skilled.
We have 2 Korean Masters every day and a 3rd is coming to town to stay next week.
There are also several other instructors from 3 degree down.
My kids and i both achieved the Rank of Black belt in December of 16 and are currently working towards our 2nd degrees.
My kids are on the Elite Team and travel to tournaments with theyre teamates as well.
More importantly , my kids are learning much about the intangibles

I would highly recommend J K Martial Arts Academy. The staff is knowledgable and attentive. The place is very clean and well kept in comparison to other academy's I've tried. They always have family oriented activities which is a clear indicator they care about their students and not just in it for the dollar.
