Our instructors are not only coaches, but state and national champions, having won both regional, national, and international competitions.

Our classes are designed to introduce basic techniques that increase in difficulty as you progress in your training. We work to teach correct balance, coordination, and concentration. We focus on physical fitness, prevention of injury, and stamina. Here at NW Sport Taekwondo Martial Arts our philosophy is to meet our students where they're at, while helping them achieve their goals.
Services
Our instructors have 29+ years of experience each to bring you the best up to date training, may it be physical fitness, self defense, sparring or forms our school can help you achieve your goals. As owner/operator and one of the head Masters of NW Sport Taekwondo, Master Colver started his training at the end of 1992.
Learn basic Taekwondo techniques. The basics of sparring and movement and learning how to read the body. Classes include a warm-up, technique instruction and often exercise games. This is integrated with inspiring martial arts-based fun, this focuses on the physical fitness of traditional Taekwondo and a set of invaluable life skills we call the five tenets of Taekwondo: courtesy, integrity, self-control, perseverance, and indomitable spirit.
Students will bow, as a form of respect to the instructors and upon entering and leaving the floor. Students will behave at all times with respect and courtesy both inside and outside the Dojang. We have a 3 strike rule of fighting outside the school. If you're the cause of a fight (at fault), or display blatant disrespect to parents this is considered a warning.

Wonderful school!
I’ve been doing taekwondo in this school for 9 months, but the way and things masters taught me - made me better really fast! All the respect they’re giving, the way they’re teaching kids, and the way they’re communicating with the athletes is priceless!
Great team, great coaches, respect, and love - that’s what you will get if you will join this school!

Me and my friend tried Taekwondo at a different place and really enjoyed it but the atmosphere wasnt right for us, so we gave NorthWest a try. Master Colver and Master Trinity are wonderful teachers and helped us gain so many great mental and physical skills

The dojang may not be as fancy as others; as it is located in the upper portion of a historic building and can be a bit tight when classes are full..but the 3 Masters are a great team and provide excellent training for all ages.

Master Colver, Master Trinity and Master Criswell.
All three are 4th degree black belts approaching their 5th. They are all patient beyond what most humans can be when it comes to working with children. They are great with kids who have ADHD as well. All are ranked high nationally in sparring in their respectful divisions.

Belts are earned here..this is not a black

I want to praise the masters at NW Sport Taekwondo. My son has ADHD and he enjoys the direction and positive challenges of Taekwondo. Master Colvert and Criswell spend time and work well with kids that need extra help with direction and focus.

Highest praise for NW Sport TKD. Our whole family is training here. All the instructors do an amazing job with the kids. The respect they have earned truly shines through in the older students. As an adult starting my journey in TKD I find the classes challenging and there is always a focus on doing things correctly to prevent injury. I cannot recommend this school enough. Truly a wonderful place to learn and train!

Hands down - very impressed with Master Colver and the NW Sport Staff. We have been researching and interviewing Martial Art studios around the east side of Seattle for our son over the past year. What we learned was pretty shocking.

Apparently there are many studios that accept children as young as 3 years old. They host large classes of 20+ students where the instructor can is unable to monitor all the children or correct their positions when they are wrong. The children go through the motions picking up and building on bad habits. Some even sponsor day cares and field trips (at a Martial

A growing studio where you can learn and grow under the teachings of 3 Master Black belt teachers as well as multiple others who have earned various levels of Red and Black belt. Classes are for anyone 3 or older and are the funnest learning environment I have experienced. If you want to: get healthy, increase flexibility, gain confidence, make new friends, or even improve your emotional well-being then this is the place to go!
