From the reviews

It’s been almost a year since my 5 year old daughter begged me to enroll her in TKD and I’m so glad we chose this location. She’s learned so many useful skills both physical and behavioral. The instructors are very caring, but also put a big emphasis on discipline and respect for staff, peers, and family.

★★★★★ — Lauren, Jun 2025

My son has been attending Master Jung’s Taekwondo for the past two years, and the positive impact has been incredible. When he was younger, he struggled with staying focused and paying attention. Since joining, I have seen a tremendous improvement in his concentration, discipline, and confidence.

New to taekwondo? Start at Master Jung's World Taekwondo | Martial Arts & Self defense In Rockland County, NY

Master Jung's World Taekwondo | Martial Arts & Self defense In Rockland County, NY 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 Master Jung's World Taekwondo | Martial Arts & Self defense In Rockland County, NY

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.
