My son has been attending since the school first opened in March. We absolutely LOVE it. Master Singer is a great instructor, patient yet firm, and pushes the kids to do their very best. Master Adams and Instructor Lee are also GREAT!

★★★★★ — Angela, Oct 2017

The team here is awesome. My Daughter does Taekwondo in NC but for the summer she comes to stay with me. To keep her involved and not get rusty we signed her up here. Overall the curriculum is the same with minor differences. The team welcomed her with open arms as if she started her journey with them.

★★★★★ — Daniel, Jul 2023

If you are looking for good competition school in SA, don't even bother going to other school. Master Singer and Elva is like Jay-Z and Beyonce in USA Taekwondo community. They are very hard working instructors and they yield good result. I highly recommend this school.

Your first taekwondo class at World Taekwondo Center

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.
