From the reviews
My son is coming to Master Reza Saffar and Master Arrash Atlasi since he was in Kindergarten. At first it was not easy for him he used to cry but then Because of both the masters and the instructors he felt good and Confident. He started to enjoy coming to the classes and now he is degree one Black belt.
My daughter has been going to Cheetah kicks for almost an year now. Along with physically getting strong we have seen huge improvement in her focus, flexibility and agility levels. Best instructors, she looks forward for every class, gets excited for every new color stripe that she earns on her belt.
Moved in from SC to TX and after a year long wait , it was absolutely a blessing to have sealed a spot with Cheetah Kids for my 6 year old. The coaches are thorough professionals unlike other centers(Based on my past experiences).
We’ve been with Cheetah Kicks for over 2 years now, and I can’t say enough good things about it. All the coaches and staff are incredibly nice, supportive, and friendly. My daughter has been attending regularly and not only enjoys the classes but has also grown stronger and more confident through their training.
New to taekwondo? Start at Cheetah Kicks Martial Arts
Cheetah Kicks 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 Cheetah Kicks 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.
