From the reviews
My wife and I have been looking for excellent Tae Kwon Do Master around north Bergen area since we moved from Westchester 3 years ago for my 3 kids. Finally, we found master Song. He is one of the greatest martial arts master in state with technics, spirits and teaching skills for kids.
My 3 children are a current students of Yong-In Elite TKD and they loves it. It is one of the best martial art schools in the area. The instructor has over 30 years of experience in the field and is really averse in Martial Arts. If you are looking for a place to learn Yong-In is the best by far
Yong In Elite is excellent! Master Song is a wonderful teacher and motivator who gives each child personal attention and instruction. Our boys have learned a lot and have increased their self discipline and respect. We highly recommend!
Master Song brings out the best in your child. We are so happy with this school! Our son and daughter love taking classes and have learned so much about self discipline. We highly recommend!!
New to taekwondo? Start at Yong In Elite Taekwondo
Yong In Elite Taekwondo 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 Yong In Elite 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.
