From the reviews
Master Blanchette and Master Mrs. B have a proven track record of treating students and parents alike with the utmost respect and grace. The investment they pour into their students shows, and countless lives have been changed by their business. Don't just take my word for it.
Great school for TKD! It’s been 12 years since my kids started and they still love going there. Instructors like Master Blanchette and Mrs B are amazing, not only teaching kids how to be strong and excel in martial arts but incorporate more on becoming respectful, kind and responsible individuals.
I have been attending class at Capital City Tae Kwon Do for over the past 3 years. I go there twice a week and am always looking forward to going to class. The class is full of great students as well as teachers. Master Blanchette and Mrs. B are great instructors and always make class fun.
This school is amazing. My son went to this school for ten years and in that time they helped his father and I teach him respect, self discipline, determination and perseverance. I 100% believe that Master Blanchette and Master Mrs. B have helped my son transform into the person he is today.
New to taekwondo? Start at Capital City Tae Kwon Do
Capital City Tae Kwon Do 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 Capital City Tae Kwon Do
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.
