From the reviews
I am very pleased with my training at the Body Mind Systems School of Martial Arts. I will not call it a karate school, or even a martial arts school. You learn about martial arts in this school; and how it can impact you in your daily life as well as how the various martial arts that you learn in this school can help…
On September 29, 2022, at 54 years old, I made a commitment to change my life by becoming a Harmony Arts student at BMS. I walked into BMS with a physically weak body and an exhausted mind. I was not sure what to expect but I felt drawn to be there.
I have tried many physical and mental practices over the years and nothing can compare to my experience training at Body Mind Systems. I had no prior martial arts experience when I started and no idea what to expect, but I was at a crossroads facing challenges in life and knew it was time for change.
We have been so glad to be a part of Body Mind's youth/kids classes for the last 3 years. My oldest has enjoyed his time training and growing his skill with friends and our youngest was thrilled to get to join his older brother this year.
New to taekwondo? Start at Body Mind Systems, Stoneham
Body Mind Systems, Stoneham comes up as a beginner-friendly school — noted on their own site. If you've never trained or set foot in a dojang, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and instructors scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable schools build fundamentals (stances, blocks, kicks, and basic forms) for weeks, sparring eases in gradually and with gear on, and instructors keep it controlled and safe. Third, all ages and all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most schools are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first taekwondo class at Body Mind Systems, Stoneham
Nervous about walking into a taekwondo school for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, and kicks with a partner or on pads — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: loose athletic wear you can move in (or a dobok if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the floor. What to bring: water and a positive attitude — many schools lend a loaner dobok for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll get your own dobok and belt, and sparring gear (mouthguard, headgear, and guards) once you begin sparring. Sparring eases in gradually, once your fundamentals and forms are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the instructor. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
