Frequently Asked Questions
Tuition depends on the program and schedule you choose. Our core Taekwondo program is $33.95 a week at full price, and paying for the year up front brings it down to as low as $116 a month. Either way, your first week is free, so you can train before you decide anything.
Sparring and the combinations that build up to it, board breaking, and striking drills pulled from Kickboxing, Muay Thai, and boxing, all in a structured, formal training environment. We also train traditional forms, short for formal exercise, including some of the original 24 forms of Chang Hon Taekwondo, the system developed inside the Korean military. Cubs classes cover the same foundations with more games and obstacle courses and less memorization.
Yes. There's a fit for everyone here, and we meet every student where they are, including students with special needs. There are no prerequisites, no required fitness level, and no athletic background needed. Taekwondo builds those things if you train it right. Everything is modifiable to the individual, and it's a personal journey, but one with real standards we'll hold you to.
Ages 3 to adult. Cubs starts at 3, Juniors runs 5 to 12, and teens and adults train together from 13 up. Our Little Kickers parent-and-me class for ages 2 to 3 is launching soon.
