From the reviews

My son took his first Tae Kwon Do class here and loved it! The instructors are very skilled and have fun with the kids while teaching them necessary discipline.

I absolutely love Olympia Taekwondo!! My family was with them for more than a decade, and even now if my boys ever need anything...they know that they can count Master Alex.. Olympia isn't just a place to train....its FAMILY. The Covert family is hands down the best around!!!

★★★★★ — Brenda, Dec 2021

My son has been training at Olympia for about 2 years. He loves the classes, instructors, and students. The Coverts have made it feel like a family. My son has grown a lot through his experience with training, testing, and tournaments.

★★★★★ — Meggan, Dec 2021

Olympia is the school I’ve been training at for 11 years and by far it is the best place to be. Learning anything from weapons to knife and gun defense, Olympia does it all. Olympia makes everyone feel, and treats everyone like they are apart of a family.

Your first taekwondo class at Olympia 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.

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.
