When Charlotte and I joined the school 3 years ago, I wanted Taekwondo to help her build confidence and discipline; I was excited at the idea that I would also learn something while she trains; and I was secretly hoping that in the long term she could defend herself, so I would not have to worry that much when she will be out in the World. The school exceeded my expectations by far. I did not expect that the expertise, grace and humanity shown by the teachers would emulate Charlotte’s best traits. I saw her persisting during a test when she could not break a board and ultimately succeeding. I saw her training sometime for more than 15 hours a week to be ready for her black belt test, and always with a smile on her face. I saw her helping other kids learning their forms. I saw her socializing with confidence with every kids and adults in the club. She deserves a lot of credit, but the school was instrumental in making her a better person. As for me, I got the chance to progress with my daughter. Overcoming the same hurdles, at the same time; learning our forms together; struggling with the same kicks. Testing for the black belt together is now one of my most cherished memories and, for that, I am very grateful.

My son started learning Taekwon-do and I started mainly to encourage him. When I started a year ago, I was not sure how long I would do it but now I'm sure that I'll continue for as long as I can. It has been a great experience learning a new skill, improving my fitness level and interacting with a great group of like-minded people. It's also making my son more disciplined, focused and motivated to work hard. Grandmaster Kim and all the other instructors are amazing and continue to provide individualized tips and encourage everyone to do better. Really glad we joined this school!

Both my son and I learn Taekwon at here for more than a year. We have a great time, and plan to continue our training for a long time. The teachers are all very very nice! The location is very convenient, but during RedSox season, the parking is very challeging.

This is the perfect place to learn the real Taekwondo, like how it was taught traditionally, and not just for competition. If you want to learn the techniques, this is the best place in the area and probably in the country (I have not much experience with other schools so don't want to say it definitely). Master Kim is a Taekwondo master and a great teacher. It is amazing how many classes he taught personally as a grand master of Taekwondo. You'll get personal pointers from him and especially for beginners it's truly valuable. Those pointers can really go a long way even long after you stop practicing Taekwondo. If you want to learn more than just the technique, the way Taekwondo is taught here is full of oriental philosophy and you practice martial arts like you are creating an artwork, and you will find it reveals your aesthetics, your intention and other aspects of your inner self. The culture and traditions are well retained but with less rigidity. Master Kim is a very easy-going person and teaches every single student with radiant passion for Taekwondo. People here are all wonderful and welcoming.

OUTSTANDING! The core values this place stands for extend far beyond the art of Taekwondo. It is a gift to your child or a good reminder for yourself: the gift of patience, humility, commitment, perseverance, self-discipline, and rigor. All packaged in a welcoming and diverse community. Teachers are dedicated to their art and very attentive to the students without ever lowering their standards. No edulcorated version of Taekwondo for the kids here. Expectations are very clear and set for all. Students have the privilege to be regularly taught by Grand Master and founder Jae H. Kim who takes the time to show the secrets and details of each Form to all, no matter the level or belt color. My daughter, now a black belt, felt immediately compelled and encouraged to give her best. We feel so incredibly grateful that we found this place. Totally recommend. No question.
