From the reviews
They teach TaeKwonDo, and they also help raise good human beings. They treat my kids with kindness and respect, and expect the same in return - and teach them what this looks like. I am so glad the Boston family is part of my sons’ lives!
Classic TKD is as excellent studio run by excellent people. When I was a kid, training with them gave me so much of the discipline, self-determination, and balance (both physical and otherwise) that I needed. As an adult, I'm so excited to be back with them and restart my journey through martial arts again.
I am now a brown belt after 2 years it is a great experience and I do the summer camp online school and day camp and after school the after school I do when it is not Covid-19 and I love all.
Great teachers, helping teach self defense and qualities for good people. I'm happy I found them
New to taekwondo? Start at Classic Tae Kwon Do Studios
Classic Tae Kwon Do Studios 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 Classic Tae Kwon Do Studios
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.
