We found this place almost 4 years ago, after coming out of a kumon center across the street…read more Outside was hung with grand opening banners, so we decided to stop in and check it out. The Master (surprisingly) was young, but after one trial class, my 7 year old daughter was hooked. She loved how Master Andrew made classes fun, entertaining, and filled with laughter, but also included times for serious learning accordingly. He understands if the kids are having a difficult time with certain forms, but continues to encourage them which helps give them that push to continue, rather than to quit. This dojo is also run by the most family-oriented family, whom (from what I've seen) all remembers each students and their families names. They are constantly sanitizing and keeping the place clean. Yes, even before covid hit. 4 years later, my daughter who started out as a no belt, holds a second degree black belt. Thank you to Master Andrew and Master Yang for having superb positive teaching values for the children.

We've been going to JS TKD for several months now, and I've been waiting to write a review…read more Master Andrew is provides a perfect balance of kindness and structure for the kids to learn the principles of TKD. My son struggles with paying attention in school, but here he loves "focusing" and learning new techniques. It's the right balance of challenge and accomplishment. The facility is nice enough, there is enough room for all the kids to spread out. Class sizes are around 12-15, which is perfect. Belt progression is not guaranteed, and belt testing is serious. Master Andrew trains his students to be competitive and many do participate in state and national competitions, but we're only white belt, so a ways to go still. If you're looking for a family-friendly, flexible, fun and competitive environment, this is the place.

Master Jordan is AMAZING and she knows how to get the best out of each of her students individually. I also love that she focuses on important life skills for children and young adults. Tiger Masters has definitely become my second home and I love that it also feels like family. If you are looking to build your confidence, become more disciplined, or just simply want to be physically fit, then Tiger Masters is the place for you!

My son started in the Tiny Tigers class when he was just over 4 years old. We've been with Tiger…read moreMasters about 1 year and he's now in the regular class, about to move up to the next belt. We love Tiger Masters because Master Jordan is truly dedicated to teaching Tae Kwon Do. She emphasizes discipline, hard work, respect, and getting it done right. My son is not exactly an athlete but this keeps him active, and we've seen the difference that going to TKD has done for him: he's more agile, has more stamina, and has confidence in his body. I always say he has a love-hate relationship with TKD because it is his hard work, and it's not all fun and games. But when we drive by on an off day, he always wants to go see Master Jordan. And even when he's at school waiting in line, he will start doing his TKD forms. TKD is not just a hobby for him, it's starting to become ingrained in his daily routine! And to me that's priceless. Interestingly, I was introduced to Tiger Masters randomly by a nurse at the hospital, who spoke very highly of Master Jordan. That nurse's child was college age, started with Master Jordan around age 8 or 10, and she was extremely happy with the result, and spoke highly of Master Jordan even after so many years. What I especially love about Master Jordan is that although the classes are in a group setting, she actually knows each child individually. She knows their strengths and weaknesses. She knows when to be hard or soft with them. Ms. Lucia is the Office Manager/Administrator, and she keeps everything organized. We've had bad experiences with Masters that don't have administrative support and everything just falls to pieces. So I can't say enough good things about Ms. Lucia as well; she is the glue that makes the school work! A note on price: pricing is pretty comparable to other martial arts schools -- I know because I visited all of them! We are very thankful to have found Tiger Masters!

The most disappointing place. if you aren't a member of their demo team you are overlooked. on more…read morethan one occasion, ok, many many occasions I've witnessed them disrespecting students. I've heard them say "not good", "too hard, lose weight", or make fun of children's hair or clothing. They admonish children who aren't old enough to drive, or are late because they are being tutored. They preach respect but are the most disrespectful men I've ever come across. waiting for our contract to be done then we are gone. Literally go anywhere but here.

We moved here from Northern Virginia almost three years ago, and searched for an excellent Tae Kwon…read moreDo dojang for a long time. We tried several different places, but they just did not measure up to our old one (Tiger Den). Finally we discovered Tiger World Class Tae Kwon Do, in Ellicott City. I have been saying for years that we need something like this here! You will find the instructors, Master Shin and Master Chong are both experts in Tae Kwon Do, however most importantly are enthusiastic about the sport! They have a way of encouraging the kids to learn while strengthening their bodies and teaching respect. My son's behavior improved immediately after a few classes. He wants to do well for the Masters and he has developed an appreciation for the Korean teachings of respect. Most of all, he is excited to learn and has a goal to strive for black belt. The Masters get the kids to think about goals, which is what they need. My son even has the thought the he could compete one day, just like the Masters. I believe with excellent teachers like Master Shin and Master Chong it is possible! You will find the dojo is always clean and everything is new. They have state of the art equipment, and benches for the parents to sit and watch. The schedule is very accommodating. You can choose from a variety of classes from afternoon to late evening, and even Saturday classes. The class time is just under an hour, so not too long for busy schedules and it does not interfere with homework. You will find price to be comparable to others in the area, and they do accept payment plans. It is well worth the money, and it has been my experience that the class sizes are small enough that each child gets individual instruction and attention. Overall, this is a success for Ellicott City! This is exactly the type of Tae Kwon Do we needed. They have a website that gives more information of their backgrounds. Check it out...and give them a call.

For about 4 months now I've had the honor and pleasure of watching my son soak up training at this dojo. The staff here are FANTASTIC with kids. They took my shy kid in one session and had him on the mat and he hasn't looked back since. Adults train here too but every time I come here I see smiles on kids faces! They learn, are encouraged to practice, and belt tests reinforce discipline at home. I'm proud of my son for sticking with it and the staff here prove every day that they can hook the kids on Martial Arts. I can't say enough good things!

I got my black belt and feel safer out and about, but also I can hold in my heart the fact that I achieved something so cool.

So far this has not happened and that was back in October 2016. Classes are M-Th and just one from 6:15-7:15. There is a different instructor every night. Sometimes the class seems more focus on weights, yoga, Pilates, and other things than kickboxing. The room is not very big. While you are taking the class, others are either in there waiting to their classes, practicing for their class, or walking to and from the restroom. Sometimes you cannot do your own workout due to them walking by or being in the way, which is frustrating. Attempted to cancel my membership but unfortunately I'm locked in for a year. It is definitely more geared for martial arts than kickboxing.
