From the reviews
Only multiple-accredited school in Taekwondo in our locality that we've found. Master Adam Frega rocks! My daughter is going to love this new martial arts home soon!
My daughter get her black belt in Folsom Taekwondo, she loves this place and we where satisfy. Thank you all and miss you
Best training you’ll find! Also the belt promotions are legitimate and recognized by the governing party of Taekwondo in Korea. There are other places around town that just buy belts on amazon and pretend to be legitimate. This was the first Taekwondo studio in Folsom and is the absolute best.
I love this place, i have been here since I was 8 years old. I can tell you that this school has several high ranking instructors that are certified and are willing to work and help you along your journey. What most schools lack is a developed curriculum at black belt level, and this school has one.
New to taekwondo? Start at Folsom Taekwondo Center
Folsom Taekwondo Center 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 Folsom 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.
