From the reviews
My 3 kids go here and they've grown in several ways. So far, we are very happy. Tiger Rock is a franchise and the kids compete with other TR kids, it is very well organized. I like that the forms don't completely change with each belt, they just add on. The young men that run the Mason Rd.
What a great facility! Clean, organized and very beginner friendly (of course in the white belt classes). The instructors were all kind and helpful. Much better than Gracie Barra ( at least for my 8 and 11 yr old just trying martial arts)
Tiger Rock is an excellent Tae Kwon Do Academy. The staff is very professional and kind hearted towards all of their students. My son has taken lessons for a year and a half and loves it!
It's awsome been here for years the instructors are friendly and the community is amazing
New to taekwondo? Start at Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Katy
Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Katy 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-Rock Martial Arts of Katy
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.
