From the reviews
I’m extremely happy with enrolling my kids in World Champion Taekwondo with Master Kris in Brookfield, CT. This is the first organized “sport” I have enrolled my kids in and they love it. Master Kris does a great job teaching courtesy, respect, integrity, self control, perseverance and determination.
We are so happy with World Champion taekwondo. Master Kris, Ms. Liz and all the staff are great. My kids have been going for just about 2 months now and already feel like family!! My kids also attended the afterschool with Ms. Liz.
Master Kris is just amazing with kids. He has taught my boys how to have great focus, respect and patience. They have learned to work hard and earn their belts and trophies. He is a wonderful part of our community!
First impressions are extremely important, especially when it comes to someone working with our son. We came in for a trial class and Master Kris is beyond hospitable and respectful - he is so wonderful with kids of all ages.
New to taekwondo? Start at World Champion Taekwondo Brookfield/Danbury
World Champion Taekwondo Brookfield/Danbury comes up as a beginner-friendly school, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 World Champion Taekwondo Brookfield/Danbury
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.
