★★★★★ — Bella, Jan 2023

I am a student there and I love this my current teacher Mr.Morris is very nice to the students. he teaches the students to never use Taekwon-Do at home. He also teaches you to respect your seniors and fellow classmates. as you get further in there will be different teachers all of the teachers are very nice.

★★★★★ — Katie, Feb 2019

Great place Master Morris teaches genuine Taekwon-Do and this helps build character, confidence, and strength. For a beginner this is a good place to go as it is very accepting and caters to all skill levels. weekly there is more patterns and exercises rather than sparring or breaking.

★★★★★ — Bad, Apr 2018

Mightyfist Taekwon-Do has undeniably impacted the lives of students for the better. Not only does the dojang hold students to high standards in the more obvious aspects of Taekwon-Do (such as self-defense, patterns/forms, sparring, breaking), but it also instills the values of perseverance, diligence, and respect…

New to taekwondo? Start at Mightyfist Taekwon-Do

Mightyfist Taekwon-Do 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 Mightyfist Taekwon-Do

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.
