From the reviews

Strength Training, Body Building, Power Lifting, have all been part of my entire life. THIS IS A GAMECHANGER. For years I have channeled all of my energy into working out my demons through steel only to find the energy mounting with no where to go.

★★★★★ — Pete, Oct 2025

After my 7yo’s first class with Master Zohar he told me “Mom! I feel so confident!” My son has (or rather had) a lot of anxiety with trying new things and being separated from me and my husband (for school or play dates things like that).

★★★★★ — Aspiring, Aug 2025

Even though we’ve only been attending for just over a month, we’ve already noticed a positive change in our three kids (ages 5, 5, and 4) – both in their behavior at home and their overall confidence. They absolutely love going, and Master Zohar is amazing with them!

★★★★★ — Chelsie, May 2025

I It is impossible to say enough good things about Personal Power and our recent experience there. My daughter and I started a few weeks ago (I earned a black belt 20 years ago when I was growing up) and Master Zohar and his team are incredible.

New to taekwondo? Start at ️Personal Power Martial Arts

️Personal Power Martial Arts 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 ️Personal Power 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.

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.
