From the reviews
My boys and I have been attending CTA for almost 5 years. We started when my oldest was 4 and have been an active part ever since. I am “older” and the attention to detail and the patience to work with children and adults of many different skill levels and abilities is amazing.
We started 2 years ago and now there is a big change with our 5 years old daughter. She got disciplined. We are so happy with our masters. They trying their best to teach and motivate the kids.
My ex-wife and son train at this dojang. They really enjoy it and look forward to classes. I enjoy watching them learn new skills and earn new belts. I love the attention and support they show to my family.
To our Dear Community and Families! I have been going to CTA Tae Kwon Do Academy and know Grand Master Kim and his staff for 17 years plus ... It is the most wonderful sport school I ever experienced. I came from Germany long time ago and did some martial arts there - but nothing compared to his program!
New to taekwondo? Start at Champions TaeKwonDo Academy
Champions TaeKwonDo Academy 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 TaeKwonDo Academy
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.
