From the reviews
Master Choi is one of a kind! I can’t say enough positive things about our experience at Y S Taekwondo. She is firm, yet fun. She has a great way of relating to the kids and getting the best out of them. My son looks forward to every class and always leaves saying “I love Master Choi”.
The Dojo is so clean and comfortable!!! We are in an adult learning class, Master Choi is so patient with us! She is very technical and supportive which is so important to help insure that I and my wife and her other students learn...
We have had a very good experience with the Master. The master is very knowledgeable and is a pure authentic Taekwondo master, the best you can get. I would vouch for YS Taekwondo anytime.
Master Choi is the best 👌 She molds her students into a better and confident person, in a firm yet fun way. She has patience with kids, for example , my son didn't grasp the Korean terminology used in Takewondo for first few classes .
New to taekwondo? Start at Y S TAEKWONDO
Y S TAEKWONDO 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 Y S TAEKWONDO
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.
