From the reviews
We love our PMA family. My boys have both grown so much over the past 4 years. We admire and appreciate their instructors. They are kind, patient and are such amazing role models. I look forward to seeing where their martial arts journey takes them over the next 4.
Awesome all around. Great atmosphere, very encouraging, awesome staff! Grandmaster Garza really leads by example. Master Ben and staff including Ms Noelle, Mr Luke, Mr Matthew, Mr Christen, Ms Peyton, and Ms Emma are all exceptional and caring and they bring that out of the students as well.
My whole family loves this school. Great classes and great people. My kids all have learned some amazing life skills. And Mr. Christen is an amazing instructor
We love it here. My son has never been more excited to participate in an extracurricular activity! The discipline and respect AGPMA focuses on shows.
New to taekwondo? Start at Premier Martial Arts Dickinson
Premier Martial Arts Dickinson 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 Premier Martial Arts Dickinson
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.
