From the reviews
It was originally a Y.K. Kim dojang in the 90s when I started going there (~5 or 6 years old). The instructors of the original dojang were cool, memorable, people... but they weren't Master Park.
My son has been at Taekwondo World for close to 2 years now. Master Park is an amazing instructor! He is very detailed with his lessons and incorporates both self defense and self esteem into each class. He has so much compassion towards his students and their families.
I was a student of Tae Kwon Do World for 13 years since i was 6 years of age. Master Park (the owner) is a great teacher and taught me how to be a successful man. I am 18 now and I still Consider him the greatest teacher that I have ever known.
My son has been going to taekwondo classes with Master Park for more than one year and we just love it! He is amazing! His concern about the kids behavior, discipline and school is impressive! Highly recommend!
New to taekwondo? Start at Tae Kwon DO World
Tae Kwon DO World 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 Tae Kwon DO World
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.
