From the reviews

We have been looking for a martial arts studio since we got here and tried several places. This one is fantastic. Offering classes to ages as young as 3 is a huge plus and the instructors are great. Perfect balance of discipline and patience with the young ones. The kids love it.

Could not be anymore impressed with how they teach in class and how family friendly oriented they are as well!! I would recommend signing up as a family or even solo!!

★★★★★ — Paris, Dec 2024

My kids have been going here since the dojo officially opened in the beginning of the year. The entire staff of Tempest have been so welcoming and friendly consistently since the very beginning. We can't say enough how much our two boys have been much more enthusiastic and excited going to class.

★★★★★ — Earvin, Mar 2024

If you haven't checked this place out or if you aren't sure that taekwondo is your thing, that's okay, but try it out anyway! Free classes till Jan 5th! Check out their website for winter break schedule. Lots if class options including a family class for everyone above the age of 5.

New to taekwondo? Start at Tempest Taekwondo - Redlands

Tempest Taekwondo - Redlands 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 Tempest Taekwondo - Redlands

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.

Taekwondo is a martial art and a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
