From the reviews
We have now been at JTC for over a year and we are SO happy we found them!! Master Joaquin is an AMAZING instructor and really takes pride in teaching the kids the correct techniques while making it fun for them.
We could not be happier at JTC! We had been at another gym previously and after some struggles we came to JTC. Our kids (and us) knew immediately this is where we wanted to be! We love the discipline and respect our children are learning because it is both modeled for them and expected of them.
My son has been a student of Master Joaquin for many years now and it has definitely had a huge impact on building his character! I highly recommend Taekwondo and JTC for students looking for a professional school with a "Family Community"!
Joaquin is a great teacher for children and adults. Definitely try out a class if you want to get into Tae Kwon Do.
New to taekwondo? Start at Joaquin Taekwondo Center | Powder Springs, GA
Joaquin Taekwondo Center | Powder Springs, GA 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 Joaquin Taekwondo Center | Powder Springs, GA
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.
