From the reviews
Doha Taekwondo has been my 7 year old son’s chosen discipline now for about 3 months. My son needed an activity that was singular based, he needed a place where someone could work with him closely and give him the tools he needed to sharpen his focus, both in school and at home. The teachers here are very very kind.
My son started at Doha Taekwondo few weeks ago, he absolutely loves all the activities and the instructors there. It is the perfect balance of activities for little kids in the white belt class. My son is telling all his friends in school how great Doha is and how funny master Kim and the rest instructors are!
My Daughter is happy to learn TKD at doha. She leaned patience, controlling behavior and feeling. Every time when she pass belt test, she has more confidence. It gets harder every time they go up to a higher belt, but every Master and instructor always cheer her up, make her keep trying.
My kids love Master Kim. She is the best TKD master we’ve ever had. Ever since my kids go to Doha TKD, they are more disciplined and more focused. She’s very passionate about her job and kids. Going to Doha TKD was the best choice we made for kids.
New to taekwondo? Start at Doha Taekwondo - La Cañada Flintridge
Doha Taekwondo - La Cañada Flintridge 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 Doha Taekwondo - La Cañada Flintridge
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.
