From the reviews
Wonderful taekwondo school! The instructors are kind, disciplined, and truly care about each student. My child has gained confidence, focus, and respect. Strongly recommend Tiger Kim’s!
Our son (6yo) and daughter (4yo) just started at Tiger Kim's and we have been very happy with the targeted attention, gentle guidance, and positive reinforcement. The kids are excited to go to class and have quickly adopted the norms and expectations. Excited and hopeful they continue in this great program!
We love Tiger Kim’s Tae Kwon Do!!! My daughter goes to the Kernersville DoJo and everyone is amazing!!! They really care about all the students (kids, teens and adults and the parents)
Our son started at Tiger Kim’s a year ago and my husband and I joined in July of 2025. We could not be happier, not only are the instructors and masters knowledgeable and truly interested in each student but they’re also very family oriented and make sure to involve the family as much as possible.
New to taekwondo? Start at Tiger Kim's Tae Kwon Do - Clemmons
Tiger Kim's Tae Kwon Do - Clemmons 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 Tiger Kim's Tae Kwon Do - Clemmons
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.
