From the reviews

Bothnif kids are in the competition class and love it. If you are looking for a competitive Olympic Sport Taekwondo studio, this is it! They work hard and enjoy the environment. They also have traditional classes if you do not want to compete. Def worth checking out. We couldn't another school that competed Nationally.

★★★★★ — Catalina, Nov 2021

My son is in love with the classes. Luca is my son's favorite. He gets the attention from the little ones and make the class fun while teaching them discipline.

★★★★★ — Nadya, Feb 2020

Both my sons attend Givans TKD. My 14-year-old earned his 2nd-degree black belt under his guidance and is ranked in the top 5 nationally. My 5-year-old just started, and it's a blast to watch. Givans is patient and knowledgeable in current tkd teachings. Best school in Nevada, hands down.

Your first taekwondo class at Givans Taekwondo Academy

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.

Taekwondo is a martial art and a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
