From the reviews
I started 6 years ago, very shy. Now I’m a black belt and confident. I made a lot of progress along with many other of my classmates. I don’t regret joining. Amazing school
This is by far the best martial art school in the Ocean Township! I have trained here for 6 years and Master Rogelio has helped me tremendously. Not only did I achieve the black belt, I learned confidence and perseverance. This place has taught me to be the best that I can be. I highly recommend this for all ages!
I gave it five stars because I think that stomp ground martial art show you what’s wrong and what’s right and show you to be respectful and have manners and it also fun for kids so they can have fun, talk to people and make new friends and not just that it help you defend your self when someone try’s to hurt you .
Excelente escuela de artes marciales! Mi hijo de 4 años asiste a la clase “Pequeños Dragones” diseñada para que los niños pequeños se diviertan al mismo tiempo que aprenden disciplina positiva, se ejercitan con artes marciales y ganan confianza en si mismos.
New to taekwondo? Start at Stomp Ground Martial Arts
Stomp Ground 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 Stomp Ground 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.
