From the reviews
Han Martial Arts is the BEST. I began sending my daughter here at age 4. Since then, we've noticed significant improvements in her confidence, hand eye coordination, and focus. She has a lot of fun during her classes and developed a healthy interest in the Korean language as well.
Excellent martial arts place! We have been going here for years and our daughter has grown in focus, discipline and joy through the process. The masters are amazing, Master Han, Master Edward, Master Sam, Master Ku and everyone is supportive and caring. They truly understand how to develop character and strength.
My 6 year old has been attending Han Martial Art's since he was 4 and we've had a great experience with their instructors and methodology with training the children an also coaching up the parents as well.
Han Martial Arts is an amazing place to train! The instructors are patient, supportive, and really know how to push you to do your best. They teach not just martial arts skills, but also discipline, confidence, and respect.
Your first taekwondo class at Han Martial Arts
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.
