★★★★★ — Daniela, Nov 2024

In the last 2 years this space has become not only the place where I train, but the space where I share with friends and family. Master Cho is a warm person and concerned about the integrity of each one of us, his training goes beyond the dojang, he always gives us advice and is in charge of showing us that the way we…

Both my children, 1 boy and 1 girl, LOVE going to Cho's Tae Kwon Do. They have learned so many valuable life skills, such as respect, patients, and kindness all while having so much fun. I love the care and commitment Master Cho puts into my kids and their classes.

★★★★★ — Penny, Dec 2017

Master Cho and Prestige Martial Arts is an incredible place. My 4 year old daughter has already learned about discipline, respect, and had more confidence. Master Cho is amazing with all of his students, and especially with the younger ones. I am very thankful for him and all he does for my daughter.

New to taekwondo? Start at Prestige Martial Arts

Prestige 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 Prestige 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.
