From the reviews
My son hasn't been here long, but he loves it. We've been to every practice as long as the weather left us, lol. But this place is awesome, and the kids have a blast. My son is now on a yellow belt and will be a green belt very soon. Awesome coaches and helpers.
I am a 5th degree Black Belt in Atlanta, and Master Wegener is my instructor. After my instructor in Atlanta retired, I sought out Master Wegener. Although Master Wegener is over 8 hours away from me, and there are many Instructor's closer There are none that have the passion and drive, to make each student better.
Mr Wegener is a skilled martial artist and instructor. Looking forward to competing with his team this week!
My son has been here since February I believe. He was really struggling in school then, and he had a tough time in social settings. My son LOVES it. Not only are the coaches really great teachers, and mentors. But My son has built several close friendships. I look forward to seeing how far Martial Arts will take him!
New to taekwondo? Start at Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Monroe
Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Monroe 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 Monroe
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.
