From the reviews

My son and I have been attending Premier Martial Arts , going on 4 1/2 yrs. The professionalism that we have received throughout the years has been outstanding. All of the instructors that we have had the pleasure of training with have really shown a great sense of knowledge of the art!

★★★★★ — Omar, Mar 2018

Our kiddo has been attending Premier Martial Arts classes for nearly a year. After trying swim and soccer, we were striking out with something that kept him engaged and motivated. The Premier staff have provided a fun, supportive, and encouraging environment, even for the adults!

★★★★★ — Colorado, Feb 2025

This has been the best decision we have made for our son. He has only been going here for a couple of months and he already has more confidence and self discipline. He loves going to every class. He tried team sports and they just weren’t for him.

★★★★★ — Nicole, Mar 2019

We have loved Premier Martial Arts, it’s excellent for younger kids just starting and learning about what martial arts is all about. Our son is five and really enjoys it, he loves attending the classes and looks forward to it every week. Instructors are friendly and professional, very clean and safe environment.

New to taekwondo? Start at Premier Martial Arts

Premier 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 Premier 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.
