From the reviews
Master Rogers & staff are great!! Highly recommend them. My daughter has been a student for 3 years & will test for her black belt soon. She loves it!! We will enroll my son when he is old enough.
Our family absolutely loves Tae Ryong! Our 4 year old daughter has advanced so much in her little dragons class. Learning great discipline and a foundation of self defense at her age is absolutely priceless. Top it with an amazing instructor like master Roger's that she absolutely adores is 1 in a million.
Master Roger's is an excellent instructor and treats her students as family. All 3 of my children are taking classes from her and absolutely love it. It helps your child grow in confidence and responsibility. I greatly enjoy watching them progress.
We absolutely love it at Tae Ryong! My son was in karate for 6 years and when we moved over the summer we were looking for the best fit for him to get started again. Even though taekwondo and karate are different enough we felt like we wanted to give them a try and I am so glad we did!
New to taekwondo? Start at Tae Ryong Taekwondo - Washington
Tae Ryong Taekwondo - Washington 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 Tae Ryong Taekwondo - Washington
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.
