From the reviews
If I could give 5 stars and plus I would .... I'm falling in love with this wonderful place. The teachers: Master Kim & Master Lee are always teaching students very conscientiously, and making sure that everyone is doing well.
Awesome program and the best instructors NC. My son started the program at 3 years old, he is almost 6 now and he is more focused, disciplined. This program has taught my son life lessons that he will carry for a lifetime.
We have had our son in taekwondo for 4 years. He has made great strides in building confidence, learning about teamwork, being respectful, as well as learning the arts of kicking and punching. This has been essential for his physical and emotional health.
Outstanding Taekwondo instruction and atmosphere! Over the years I have gotten to know GrandMaster Kim and Master Lee and their commitment to their students is second to none. This is a school for anyone of any age to begin or continue their journey in Taekwondo.
New to taekwondo? Start at Master Kim's World Champion Taekwondo
Master Kim's World Champion Taekwondo comes up as a beginner-friendly school, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 Kim's World Champion Taekwondo
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.
