From the reviews
Master Yoo is the best! My son Andrew looks up to him as his role model. He enjoys to come to the classes after school. Andrew has improved with his behavior in school and has more focus and his confidence has increased as well! I wouldn’t look anywhere else Master Yoo is an incredible person inside and out!
I don't even know where to begin and Angela was right about Cali is blessed to have Master Yoo. Master Yoo has very unique teaching technics, we LOVE his energy, his sense of humor, his confidents, his love for all his students.
Two of my daughters are enrolled in TEMA. The instructors, Master Yoo and Master Y are great with young students. My girls look forward to attending every week as TEMA creates a fun and disciplined environment.
We love TEMA and Master Yoo and Master Y. Our kids have grown so much in strength, self control, and concentration. They love learning and growing in their taekwondo journey! Thank you for making it a perfect mix of serious and fun!
New to taekwondo? Start at TEMA - True Education of Martial Arts
TEMA - True Education of 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 TEMA - True Education of 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.
