If I could give 6 stars or 10 stars it still wouldn't be enough. We love Tiger Koos Martial Arts! I have no martial arts background, but my son and daughter saw a performance of the demo team and saw some of the amazing feats of the masters at our church festival and they immediately wanted to try it. We were looking for activities for our kiddos to do and decided to give it a try. In one year, my timid 5 year old has transformed into such a confident and respectful almost 6 year old. I am SO glad we did this before he went into Kindergarten this year. He was able to greet his teacher and principal with a hand shake and nice clear voice to introduce himself. What a change from the little boy who didn't want to walk onto the mat the first day because he was too shy. In 6 months my eager and over-zealous 4 year old has gained focus and respect. She has learned and remembered combinations of kicks, punches, and blocks that have translated into her learning and remembering multi-step instructions for tasks around the house. She did not lack the confidence to begin, but has gained more self control (which is huge at age 4) which has helped her in other areas. My whole family feels so welcome there and I feel like I have gained so many allies in parenting because they expect the behaviors of respect, self control, helpfulness, etc. that they teach in Tae Kwon Do to extend beyond the walls of the school. My kiddos now have another group of people who expect the same good behaviors that I do and hold them accountable. The staff, instructors, and Masters are amazing. They are incredibly professional and so friendly. If you are looking for a place to get your kids (or yourself) involved, look no further! read more

I truly cannot say enough about how superior this academy is! Master Koo and his instructors exemplifies the true principles they teach. They demonstrate respect to each and every student (even when the student is being disobedient), discipline in practice, patience, compassion and in an environment that is welcoming for families. My son has ADHD and was incredibly shy, lacking assertiveness socially and through Master Koo's program his focus, confidence and self esteem have improved so much. The Dojang is involved with local community events and schools through demonstration performances and participating in fundraising for the PTO's. Check it out for yourself and try a free trial class for your child(ren) or get the whole family in, you won't regret it! read more

I first started doing martial arts when I was in college and was looking to continue in an environment with other my age. I was very happy with the experience, while there are students of varying skills in each class, the instructor manages to keep everyone focused on their specific training regiment. The atmosphere of the environment is relaxing and gives off the vibe of a place to bring the whole family. I got to know more about Master Koo through various events that are held by the school, they reach out to get to know better the families and community they serve. I feel they go above and beyond what would be expected of any other business. read more
