Aloha, Like most…read morepeople, I rarely write reviews when they are positive. Oahu Taekwondo Center has far exceeded my expectations. I am in constant amazement of how patient, caring, supportive and structured all of the leadership and staff are when caring for all of the kids in the class. My son is currently a Green Belt/5 years old and loves Oahu Taekwondo Center. Leadership finds a way to care for newer kids who are adjusting while at the same time maintaining order of the rest of the class. To be able to see all of the kids smiling, learning and displaying foundational character traits is such a joy to see. The Best activity/discipline we have enrolled my son in to date.

Everyone there is very friendly and kind to new people so don't worry that much.

There have been a couple of events that had happened like Paint Pa'ina night which was so fun! Hopeful that there were be more events in the future to spend more time with everyone.

Took their self defense seminar last month and it was really a great experience!…read more The majority of the class was a presentation, but the information was very useful and worded in a non victim blaming way. I've gotta say, that was my biggest fear about the class going in. As a survivor of sexual violence it was really important to me that their that the information be fact based and non accusatory. The last 45 minutes was simple self defense tactics used when there is no other option and was accessible for anyone despite physical shape. I was instructed to engage physically with the instructors, something I've not done since my attack. It was very uplifting that in a few hours I was able to trust and engage with them in a way that would of scared the crap out of me previously. I found my experience with Charles Gooden to be very empowering and positive. He's a great person. My only critique would be the name of the course. As someone who has been victimized signing up for a course called "Don't be a Victim" was something I really had to talk myself into. I think the name would turn off a lot of women who have been in my position. But name aside, I highly recommend the course! I'm definitely attending the level 2 course.
