From the reviews
I highly recommend this Taekwondo gym, whenever you make a mistake the master A.K.A peter will show you how to do it right! good equipment and good service. the instructors are very nice, expect for these 2 i think there name was Jamie and somebody else.
Where should I start from.. ever since I joined this family things have changed for me in general. From being at home all the time to practicing martial arts 24/7. I encourage anyone who is interested in learning new things that can benefit you in the future. We learn different types of skills.
The Do San Taekwondo Gym is a very nice and professional gym. The owner is being misunderstood as the Taekwondo Gym is a house of discipline and order where one is to stay focused. My little brother goes to this school and is a red belt.
The Taekwondo school is very good and the owner is very friendly.Also this school is about discipline and Sparring. It is very good and the teachers are nice when you get to know them.They are there for teaching and helping students with taekwondo.
Your first taekwondo class at LA Do San Taekwondo | 엘에이 도산 태권도
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.
