From the reviews
I heard about family taekwondo when I was scrolling in facebook. Read about it and checked out around April to see what’s install for our son. We enrolled him last April and as a parent, I can see the difference from being very shy to very confident. He is more focused and disciplined.
I’d highly recommend Elk Grove- Family Taekwondo Academy! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed by the instructors. They create such a positive, encouraging environment where kids and can build confidence, discipline, and respect while having fun. Mr. and Mrs.
My son absolutely loves his taekwondo classes here! The instructors are incredibly respectful and patient, and they do a fantastic job teaching not just martial arts, but also important life values like respect, confidence, and discipline.
My daughter has been so excited about going to Taekwondo. She tries to get ready for class when she gets out of school, even though she gets home at 1pm and class doesn’t start until 545pm.
Your first taekwondo class at Elk Grove Academy - Family Taekwondo
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.
