Our daughters have been at Dragon Star Kung Fu for almost two years now, and they've told me they plan to earn their black belts and beyond!

I'm happy with the improvements I've seen in his behavior after class, even if most of the lesson's impact fades away within a day or two. Thankfully, another class is right there on the horizon! Tuition is reasonable, and there are plenty of available time slots for the various programs. Attendance in any time slot is *not* mandatory, at least for the Tiny Tigers program: you're free to bring your student to any available class for their program, throughout the week, depending on your schedule and flexibility. That's a nice touch that's not always offered at other dojangs and dojos. The staff at World Class Martial Arts somehow manage to corral more than two dozen kids at the same time, hold their attention for a half hour, and even impart some lessons (both physical and mental), with a reasonable amount of success. Sure, sometimes a child (often mine! haha!) will require some individual attention to get them to follow instructions and get them back on track, but the "sabom" (instructors) here are quick to notice distracted kids and move to intercept them, often dividing the troublemakers into groups separate from the more attentive students, and giving them personalized instruction. It's a good system, and it works! Gam sa ham nida!

World Class Martial Arts Taekwondo was the winner for us. Their space is pretty fixed in size, but I wish the changing area was organized better. There is always lots of congestion in this area making it hard to get into and out of uniform. Due to rain and cold we prefer to change there than to wear the uniform in the weather and in the car.

If you compare them to other martial arts places in the area, there are many, more professional, knowledgeable, and safe places. The tuition is very high for the quality of what is presented. They cram as many students as they can and blare music to try to distract from the disarray. Additionally, there are constant fees in addition to tuition. Every 3 months all the kids graduate to the next level regardless of skill proficiency. A new belt is awarded every 4 months and there is a mandatory $40 fee ($50 if you're late) for graduation. That adds up to $160 extra just in graduation fees each year. While there are some consistent older people that work there, the younger trainers work hands on the most. They are noticeably less invested. My child was injured in class today and the trainers would not let her rest. The owner and operators at East West do not value the safety of children. I would highly recommend you research martial arts studios around the area before committing to thousands of dollars a year.
