From the reviews
Pro Martial Arts Bridgeville is a fantastic place to learn karate. It builds confidence for kids and helps with discipline. The instructors and staff are amazing. They care for their students and take the time to assist them and help them grow as people, learn how to be a team, and gain a positive attitude.
My son has been going to pro-martial arts in Bridgeville for over two years. The personal growth as well as athletic development that he has learned cannot be matched anywhere else. Tim and Shannon run a great program and the instructors are top notch.
Our daughter loves learning here, the staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. She normally is a reserved child, but she thrives in these classes. There is pure excitement in her eyes when we tell her she has class tonight. The family friendly, non-competitive atmosphere is our (parents) favorite part.
So far we love it there. My 6yr old grandson likes the "SIRS" (the instructors n employees). They are all wonderful with all ages n sizes of kids.
New to taekwondo? Start at Bridgeville Martial Arts
Bridgeville Martial Arts comes up as a beginner-friendly school, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 Bridgeville Martial Arts
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.
