From the reviews

We have been taking our boys here for a while now (2 years for one, 1 year for the other two), and we absolutely love it! Grandmaster Augustine knows how to teach each student as they need. We have two neurodivergent children, and he knows what works for all our boys and everyone else!

★★★★★ — Andrea, Mar 2024

I’ve been very impressed with this place so far! My son has autism and gets nervous in social situations. He wouldn’t participate, so we sat there and watched the other kids in his class. We were both feeling defeated. The owner then came up and talked to him and convinced him to join the others.

★★★★★ — Amber, May 2022

Excellent school, Master Agustín is awesome, I trully appreciate the way he teaches the kids, discipline, hard work, confidence, and helps them achieve their goals. I recommend his school 100%. We love taking our kids over. A special thanks to Master Agustín and his great staff.

★★★★★ — P, Aug 2018

The team at IMAA has been so great for our son(5). The instructors are attentive and help him with his focus every class. Can’t wait to enroll our daughter(2) when she is old enough. The studio is super clean and well maintained as well.

Your first taekwondo class at International Martial Arts 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.
