From the reviews
It is the best investment that I could have given to my granddaughter Mila Rose McGill. She loves the class and is committed to achieving. I love love love the instructors and how they engage with the children and encourage respect and dignity. I look forward to watch my granddaughter Master her skills.
Woori Martial Arts is a place where my son Micah has been for a year as a little tiger. He has grown and now master his BLUE belt at 5. He loves coming to class 3 times a week! Very eager to learn a new step or technique. All the instructors/masters are very pleasant and kind to all the children.
We love it here! Both of our kids have such a great time. The staff is very friendly. The facility is very clean. The other students are all very respectful of one another. Headmaster not only engages with the students but the families too. Highly recommend the studio!
We love Woori Taekwondo!! The masters and staff are kind, helpful, and caring. My two daughters have grown in confidence, focus, and skill thanks to them. I can’t wait to enroll my toddler into the classes soon, too! High key, recommend Woori to everyone!
Your first taekwondo class at Woori Taekwondo & Hapkido Academy Midlothian
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.
