From the reviews
Honestly amazing! We decided to try taekwondo to teach my son more focus and discipline, and within the first week we saw improvement. Master Mark is so kind, patient, and playful with the kids but at the same time he is firm.
My son is going to this amazing place for summer camp! Every day he comes home and tells me what he has learned in camp. He is always so excited to show me new moves and the valuable lessons being taught there. My son has also met some amazing friends and always says how nice everyone treats him.
All the masters at Palm Beach Martial Arts have been incredible. Each one is personable and kind to my 4 year old son, who currently trains there, while also being strict and making sure he learns the respect and discipline expected of someone in a martial art.
Love this place! You feel a family kind of environment from the moment Master Mark greets you. We have our little one with the 3-4 year olds, he’s loving his teacher and admires him a lot. Good disciplines to start having from the beginning. The biggest plus for parents is that their classes are every day of the week!
New to taekwondo? Start at Palm Beach Martial Arts
Palm Beach Martial Arts 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 Palm Beach Martial Arts
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.
