From the reviews
Master Des Jardin is highly energetic with the children and provides a safe place to come and learn the craft of Martial Arts. It is great seeing his interaction with the children and watching them progress in their knowledge of martial arts. Their confidence shows as they learn new moves.
I've thoroughly enjoyed my training at Kickboxing Plus. I was nervous since I've never taken any martial arts classes before, but a friend asked me to try it and I love it. Several weeks into the class, I've learned so much and have fun while getting in shape. This is much more fun than a treadmill.
My 4.5 year old niece and sister recently started taking classes at this school and they both love it!! I see marked improvement in my niece's ability to keep her self-control and focus in check. She has high energy and these classes have given her a fun and positive outlet.
My son absolutely loves coming here. Master Des Jardin is a wonderful teacher! I’m extremely happy I found out about his classes. My son is more confident, is able to learn how to defend himself and feels proud of all his accomplishments. Thank you for all you do Master Des Jardin!
Your first taekwondo class at Kickboxing Plus 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.
