From the reviews
A true family gym where grandparents work out alongside their grandkids. I love how inclusive the classes are. There’s something for everyone. The kids learn self control and discipline, and the goal of taekwondo, which is to build a more peaceful world.
We love this center! I have 3 children enrolled in taekwondo and they have shown improvement in every area I had hoped to improve. The staff are kind and knowledgeable. They listen and foster a productive learning environment. The class is of all ages and they take their time teaching.
The team at RMAA has been so amazing with my son! We jumped all in to TKD in July and haven’t looked back! The growth in my son has been amazing with his accountability, behavior, and willingness to learn! ❤️
My daughter has thrived with confidence since joining taekwondo. The instructors are top notch and so patient with the kids. But it’s so much more than just learning taekwondo. They also teach our kids respect, self control and all the things we need to regain in our communities.
New to taekwondo? Start at Russellville Martial Arts America
Russellville Martial Arts America 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 Russellville Martial Arts America
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.
