From the reviews
Master Kwon is an amazing instructor. My son loves his class and has shown remarkable improvement in self esteem, discipline and responsibility. The class is well organized and fun.
Master Kwon deserves a medal for being so patient and understanding. He is very kind to the kids and they all love him. My son started when he was 6 while he was in kindergarten and in one year there are noticeable differences both physically and mentally. His confidence, behavior and self-esteem have also improved.
I have a four year old daughter that loves Master Kwon and his class. He is extremely patient and understanding of each child's needs and abilities.They respect him and look up to him. He is genuinely concerned about their well being and their development. My daughter is very much a princess loving little girl.
I have only the best to say about KTEAM and Master Kwon. My child has learned so much in this class physically as well as discipline, good behavior and having a positive way in everything he does.
New to taekwondo? Start at Ykwon Taekwondo
Ykwon 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 Ykwon 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.
