Apex Yong-In Martial Arts
Great for young beginners, our Little Dragon Program is specifically designed for 3-5 year olds who learn the basics of Tae Kwon Do in a fun, encouraging environment while developing balance and coordination, strengthening focus and listening skills and meeting new friends. Our children's program helps kids develop physically, mentally and emotionally.

Kids gain confidence, strengthen self discipline, develop greater concentration skills, and learn they can achieve more than they thought possible by persevering toward their black belt goal. Adult classes provide a great total body workout. You improve your strength, endurance and flexibility while learning self-defense, relieving stress and having fun with supportive classmates.

Welcome to Yong In Martial Arts, the leading provider of martial arts instruction for children, adults and families. At Yong In Martial Arts, we strive to give our students the highest quality martial arts instruction possible. We believe in empowering our students with valuable skills for daily life.
As one of the three goals that make up our core philosophy, we are committed to making our local community a safe and peaceful one. Being a contributing member of our community is a natural extension of improving the lives of our students. Happier, more confident students lead to happier families, which creates more cohesive communities.
With classes designed specifically for 3,4 and 5 year olds, your child will learn the importance of eye contact, posture, and active listening skills that will benefit them not only in Tae Kwon Do but at home, too. Tae Kwon Do students have an easier time concentrating and are able to control the fidgeting that often takes other children off track.
From the very first class, your child will learn the importance of eye contact, posture, and active listening skills that will benefit them not only in Tae Kwon Do but at home, on the playing field, and of course at school. Both teachers and parents often notice the dramatic difference in children who study the martial arts.
What if one decision could improve your health, release your stress, and make you more confident, focused, and motivated than ever before?. The reason most people drop their exercise routine whether it's going to the gym or working out at home, is that they get bored.

The monotony and repetition involved with most traditional forms of exercise turns off many people after just a few months and they lose motivation and whatever benefits they gained.Tae Kwon Do classes are full of variety and the average student trains for years, not months. Think about how much better shape you would be in if you enjoyed working out and, as a result, did so consistently!

Such a positive, encouraging place for kids to grow as athletes and with confidence, focus, and respect. Staff is attentive and helpful. Watching now older kids are mentored and coached to be leaders is exciting to see how our kid will grow in the coming years!

I do not often rate on Google but this place deserves an absolute 5.0. The instructors are kind, patient and very understanding. My 5 year old son is very shy and the instructors take extra time with him to help build his confidence and make sure he understands. My 7 year old Aidan was hesitant and now LOVES coming to train. Some places are about belts and money. This place represents learning, growth and respect. I love it!

Went here to observe my GF's cousin's child in a private lesson. Mr Eli was incredible. I wouldn't hesitate to choose Kim's Yong-In when considering martial arts options. Truly a great experience.

My child has been taking classes for a past year and half and I can highly recommend this place, because of their accommodation, diligent work ethics, and high quality of teaching. Even during the Pandemic, the owners have taken all the necessary precautions to run this business to keep everyone safe. The reason I chose this specific TKD center is because I understand the qualifications of Master Kim, as he was a gold-medalist in many different TKD championships representing S.Korea which is a big deal. Everyone is super friendly and they are genuinely hard-working people.

This is the BEST place to learn Taekwondo in the area. The instructors are dedicated, professional and extremely hard working and ensure each child gets the attention he/she deserves and pushes them to do their best . They don’t just learn taekwondo but also respect, strength training , discipline , self control etc which helps make a child a better individual. Master Kim is awesome and always so cordial, humble and encourages every student to do their very best. If you’re thinking about enrolling your child in an extracurricular activity this is the place!

The staff is phenomenal and all instructions are welcoming. Our son is gaining confidence and is more focused, which we hope will help shape his future. Not only is karate teaching our son but it is also teaching us, as the parents, patience. As previous reviews state, the instructors know every students name which is amazing. We started with the $39 program to give our child a chance to try out karate. He loved it day #1 and a special shout-out to instructor Elijah for engaging him. Thanks for everything.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Yong In Martial Arts. Their core values begin with respect and that's felt each and every time we attend a class. Our daughter has learned so much in the 3 years we've been enrolled. Through their teachings she has gained life skills and the confidence to assert herself more than ever. Master Kim and his staff are outstanding. If you're considering martial arts for your child or even as an adult, stop by and talk with them about a trial session(s).

This is hands down one of the best Taekwondo schools out there. I've attended several schools before, and have not seen such commitment to educate kids about respect, confidence, patience, discipline, and other life skills. Master Kim creates a great environment for everyone, and he is absolutely amazing with kids.
I started practicing Taekwondo again after my 5 year old son started attending this school and absolutely loved it. I'm having a great time practicing with him, and already see positive results in his attitude.
If you are looking for a great family experience or would like to help

We found Yong-In for our son when he was three years old. He had boundless amounts of energy, yet was still too young for group-based sports. He started in the Little Dragons program and loved it. As a teacher of young children, I was extremely impressed with how Master Kim guided the children through activities with tender care and humor.
As time goes on and our son has moved up to the "big kid class," and we watch as Master Kim not only teaches them physical skills, but also stresses the importance of positive character traits such as patience, respect, confidence, honesty, responsibility, focus

Fabulous! Fabulous! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the whole experience here! Master Kim is so wonderful with the children and they all love him. We started with a birthday party and are now in our 2nd week of an 8 week program. The kids all learn about respect, focus, being polite. I can't way to see what my son takes away from this. Definitely worth it!!
