From the reviews
Our family loves this place. They run their business very efficiently and are great with all ages. We have a four year old who has really done well and a seven year old who really enjoys improving his skills.
We absolutely love Choi Martial Arts Academy. My son has responded well with instructors and is always excited to go. Each instructor shows so much patience and you can tell they genuinely care about each student.
We knew for a long time that we wanted our son in some type of martial arts & I spent a long time researching the different styles & schools in Indiana. Finding Choi Martial Arts Academy has been a true Blessing for our family!

I have been to many tournements with other school and have had comments on how good Grand Master Chois students are.
New to taekwondo? Start at Choi Martial Arts Academy LLC
Choi Martial Arts Academy LLC comes up as a beginner-friendly school — noted on their own site. 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 Choi Martial Arts Academy LLC
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.
