First of all, you’re not learning from an Olympic Gold Medalist who holds an 8th degree black belt, your child will learn mostly from his students students.
We brought our son in from a Groupon deal that still says to this day “2 months of Taekwondo with a belt”, yet we were given the ultimatum after 2 weeks of training (plus one week when we were on vacation) that we have to enroll our son for $170/month for 1 hour/week of classes or not return. That’s just false advertisement first of all. Second, nobody, I mean NOBODY charges that much for 30 minutes of actual martial arts training

As a student attending this Taekwondo school for 13 whole years, I have nothing but good things to say about my experience. I learned so many things throughout my journey and it helped me develop my personality and respect for others. Everyone that teaches at the school are open to help me and are very nice. Overall, I would highly recommend attending this Taekwondo school!

Highly recommend this Taekwondo school! The instructors do a great job making students of every age feel capable and confident. While the physical training has been great for us, the masters go out of their way to make sure the kids develop good habits. My kids have increased their attention span, ability to focus, empathy for other people and have developed a good work ethic and positive attitudes. They are also getting their P.E. credits for school taken care of and developing leadership skills through the Leadership and Referee programs. It's so much more than just learning a martial art.

Nearly 3 years ago, after our son received his first degree black belt, my husband and I were encouraged to sign up for Tae Kwon Do. Being older and overweight we were hesitant but hopeful. Now looking back I am so glad we joined. We have met some incredible people and have had some amazing experiences.

I can't even begin to tell you how amazing Grand Master Kim, Master Lim, Master Jim, and Master Sue are. I had some non-Tae Kwon Do related injuries that has left me with permanent pain in my foot and ankle. All the Masters have been beyond compassionate and understanding of my limitations

I could not be more satisfied with World Champion Taekwondo. During my time as a student I grew immensely in both my physical ability and my confidence. The masters and instructors are incredibly supportive and clearly care deeply about their students. Taekwondo is a wonderful activity for both children and adults alike. It is a great way for young kids to get exercise and learn important skills like focus, respect and confidence. World Champion Taekwondo doesn't just focus on the martial arts but also on fostering these qualities within their young students. I would highly recommend World

This place is truly "world-class" when it comes to Taekwondo in United States. I was trained under Master Jun who is Master Kim's protege. Master Jun has successfully exemplified the world-class philosophy and teaching styles from Master Kim, the three time Olympic champion. Both of them have an uncanny ability to engage his students and really help the student to thrive both physically, mentally, and spiritually. I was highly impressed by his level of commitment, passion, and character he brings to his trade. I found him to be very personable, honest, and innovative. As someone

TaeKwonDo is awesome and fun. They teach you academically but still put fun things into it while teaching. If you do well enough and the master's think you are ready enough too they will suggest you to be a instructor. That means you become and "adult" and teach other kids and help them become a black belt. There are different kinds of classes, there is Family Class, Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4, and Level 5. There is also Demo team practice. If you are in a Demo team then you go out on tournaments and show people what you did in the Dojang. There is a Advanced Class where only people who

My last review I posted before this one was not meant to disrespect Master Lee, Master Jim or Master Kim. These guys are top notch when it comes to the skills they have in Taekwondo, but to rather make them aware of the problems I had observed over the last 4 years of my sons 8 years that he was there.
I was truly hoping that that review would have them take a very serious look at how the business needed to change and help them grow and understand my outspoken frustrations with this business as many others have expressed to me that are still currently there or left for similar reasons as myself

We love it here! It's not just about learning how to fight or self defense. It's about teaching both physical and inner strength. They teach about the importance of kindness, respect, and focus. They help kids become more confident and disciplined. They have taught my kids so much and they love the masters and instructors there. If they have to close for a holiday or if you miss a class, they let you make it up the following week. They are very friendly and accommodating. They really want to make their students experience a wonderful and educational one. I would recommend world champion

This is an excellent school! I use the word school purposely because this is a place where the instructors are very focused on the individual with whom they are working. They measure that child against his or her's best focus and effort. With taekwondo it is difficult to balance the discipline that is so important against positivity. These instructors do that and even on days my children aren't entirely enthusiastic about going after a long day, etc, they always leave class with a smile, feeling good about themselves and glad they attended. Sure, taekwondo is a financial

An awesome place for Taekwondo! The teaching is phenomenal compared to other Taekwondo schools around the area. They keep the students busy with goals, dedication, and respect. They have other various events as well, such as, doing fundraisers for local schools and doing school assemblies to teach respect and discipline! Highly recommended!
