FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I want to get started in TaeKwonDo... now what?

You will do taekwondo! Kick, punch, yell, sweat, jump, lose weight, gain muscles, tone your body, learn to break wood, self-defense, meet exciting people, make new friends, improve your concentration, gain self-esteem, focus, increase your agility and stamina. You will learn to relax and calm your body when needed. You will start feeling better about yourself and much more.
What about my age?
Are you at least 4 years old? Good! You can do it!
How many times a week?
2 or 3x a week is recommended. We encourage all students to try to come do taekwondo 3x a week for best results. Setting a schedule and being consistent is very important to your advancement and goal accomplishment. It is better to do 2 classes every week than missing a week and then trying to make it up the next week. Students that come on a consistent basis feel better and actually look forward to coming to class.
And what do I wear?
For your free trial workout you can wear clean sports pants and a t-shirt. For women we also recommend wearing a sports top. Please leave all jewelry at home as these may cause an injury to you or other students. We train barefooted.
What will be expected from me?
We expect our taekwondo students to give their best effort. Technique in taekwondo at the early stages of training is not as important as a positive attitude. If a student tries hard and has a good attitude, they will develop better taekwondo technique over time because they are listening and learning.
When do I get my Black Belt?
It is mathematically possible to become a Black Belt in taekwondo about two and a half years if you have consistent attendance and pass all testings successfully. However, it takes most people longer to attain that rank. Remember, grasshopper, the Black Belt is just a beginning, not the end, of serious training. Black Belt indicates that the wearer is a serious student of taekwondo.
Can we come watch a class?
Definitely! However, we recommend that you come in and actually try taekwondo for a week. It will be a fun experience, and you will get a better feel for it. Then you can decide whether you like it.
How much does this cost?
Your first week of taekwondo classes are totally free. We want to be sure that you like how we operate and like taekwondo. After that, we offer a special trial period at a reduced rate so you can see what its like coming to many classes. Once the trial period ends, we offer one year and six month memberships. You can find additional information about our memberships by going here.
