From the reviews

One of the main reasons we put our son in TKD was to help boost his self-confidence. He was only 4 years old when he first started, and was a very shy, timid boy and he just needed a little push to come out of his shell.

August 24 at 8:35 PM We were introduced to Vallejos Tae Kwon Do March of 2018 our granddaughters were struggling with a major change in their life. We needed a village to help raise these girls.

I write this review giving my utmost recommendation of Vallejos Tae Kwon Do Academy. Our spirited son is typically uninterested and disengaged from his zoom classes, despite the various tricks that his teachers pull out their hats, but VallejosTae Kwan Do Academy has brought a level of focus that we have never seen in…

★★★★★ — Natalie, Sep 2020

My best friend got her black belt from Vallejos Tae Kwon Do years ago, and urged me to get my children into it. After looking into many types of martial arts and several schools, I decided to have my kids try it out. My 2 oldest started together, they are now 10 & 9, and just recently my 4 year old started.

Your first taekwondo class at Vallejos Tae Kwon Do

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.
