From the reviews
We believe children's physical and mental development are bound together. As our 3yr old grows, we wanted an activity he could enjoy while developing. When we first came to Park slope champions, we knew we found the answer.
My son has been attending Champions Park Slope for over a year. He loves it. Master Kim is an amazing instructor. She is patient, yet firm. She really has a way with children. My son says "she's super nice and helps me correct my form." It's a great environment for kids to work together to help each other learn.
We started taking Taekwondo class at CMA on 4th Ave. as a fun activity... It quickly became a very important part of our life... Master Kim is truly amazing with children, She makes the classes fun and exciting -while teaching discipline, respect, and technique...
Master Kim is an expert and is a kind and warming instructor. She thrives with students of all ages and experience levels. I have been studying Taekwondo for over 25 years and have trained with and alongside people from all over the world.
New to taekwondo? Start at Champions Martial Arts Park Slope
Champions Martial Arts Park Slope 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 Champions Martial Arts Park Slope
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.
