From the reviews
I am low key OBSESSED with the Krav class. The instructors are extremely helpful and foster a positive and respectful learning environment. This class is really fun, and set at a good pace. It's a good workout, but it's really a "you against you" structure - meaning that if you're a newbie (like me!
My daughter is in the Tiny Tigers class. All owners are outstanding people, they care about you and your children and are friendly and professional and have outstanding qualifications.
We had 2 kids join Makowski's but took a year or so off. We wanted to try a few other places around town for a better drive and settled on a trial in the Heights. From the minute we walked in the door, we knew we needed to come straight back to Makowski's.
My children both attend Makowski's ATA in Sarver. They have learned so much there over the past few years and have earned their black belts. Children learn discipline, respect, courtesy, and self esteem. The instructors truly lead by example. These are wonderful people and they make such a difference in so many lives.
Your first taekwondo class at Makowski’s Martial Arts & Fitness
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.
