From the reviews
Next to everything else, this school is my home. Every time I walk through the doors and into class, I'm welcomed by a wonderful community, excellent instructors and I've learned to overcome many obstacles here. These instructors/masters/grandmasters have given me the best training anyone could ask for.
Both my kids have been coming to the afterschool program for several years, and we have also enjoyed the taekwondo classes over the summer. This program transformed my son who struggled in school previously. Now he is much more focused and more confident in school.
Went here for about 5 years when I was younger. Instructors are amazing and the discipline, confidence, and humility I learned here shaped me into the person I am today. Highly highly recommend.
I started taekwondo three years ago. Going to Middleton US Taekwondo is the highlight of my day. All of the instructors are very caring and nice and they treat everybody with respect. Master Han leads his staff by example and I have learned so much from his teachings.
Your first taekwondo class at DW Kim's US TaeKwonDo Center
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.
