I have never felt more wanted and appreciated as a client for all the right reasons before. In the past, I've always felt like I was being "sold" to or someone wanted my business because the more the merrier. That wasn't the case here. They saw potential in my son and they knew they would be good for him and they were More than helpful in so many different ways in helping me find a way to get him in their class. Budget is an issue for me and they really worked hard with me to find a way to make it work for all of us. None of the other places I checked into were willing to help me out. I cannot say how much I appreciate everything they have done for my son and I, and we haven't even started yet! The one thing I can say about this place is, it is costly. They are the most expensive place I have found, But I have no doubts what-so-ever that they really truly are the Best taekwondo school around. You can see it. You can feel it. You can read about it. You notice it. It stands out above the rest by a long shot. I am very excited to begin this journey with US World Class Taekwondo by our side.

My son loves this school!

I can honestly tell you my finger strength to weight ratio is not right for rock climbing, but it really does make you want to come back and keep trying again and probably put down the extra burger!! They have a $22 fee for two weeks pass as of jan 2023... you can sign up for as little as one month with no sign-up fees, and nothing about that!!! You just need to give two weeks notice to cancel so basically the minimum you can pay is $44 for a month! I'd say it's well worth it if you didn't have to pay for the damn kids to come with you! They have a small weightlifting session and yoga classes very easily. You could make this a gym if your main intention was to be healthy and have fun. Come and give it a shot.

I feel like the equipment they use is safe and of good quality. There are mats in case your a clutz like me and fall down occasionally. The staff has been friendly, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. They expect the kids to listen and follow directions which I really like. If you don't, it's pushup time!

They were still in a shared location with snap fitness when we started a brief relocation down to boring and now we're in our final new location at the Troutdale outlet mall Absolutely beautiful spot, mats are always clean, people are always fresh. Lots of kids and younger guys here and teen class for the teens that are kind of in between the adult and the kid learning mindset. Professor here as a fifth-degree black belt Brazilian as it gets. An absolute master of the craft. You won't be getting anything water down here. Prices are very comparable from what I have seen online for other places in the area. It's been an absolutely amazing experience for me and my kids. As a 36 year-old that started JiuJitsu with zero athletic background I can honestly say it was a bit intimidating to get on the Matt for the first time. Both of my kids had done taekwondo and receive black belts and worked for years at it. That was my turn on the second path to join in with them. The fun thing is on Saturday. There is a family class where you and any age kids can all be in the same class together and it really does give a unique experience. Right now, the school is growing their numbers up again at the new location and is a great time to start because you're gonna get some smaller class sizes for the new students and really emphasize the learning mindset . I don't get anything for it but if you show up, tell him Chase sent you and ask for a free week. I'm pretty sure they give everyone a free week, but it sounds cool.

After coming across them, I ended up checking out their IG: Checkmatportland and I had a chance to speak directly with the owner, Professor Junior. Professor Junior was very nice, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable in the sport. Immediately after speaking with him, I knew this was the gym to choose for my stay. During my visit, I attended 3 classes, all of which were were great. I walked away with new moves, and really good training tips from each session. I was very impressed with his passion for teaching and how quickly he was able to identify areas in my personal game that I could improve upon. I am forever grateful for the opportunity I had to train with Professor Junior, for his assistance and knowledge he shared with me. I will definitely be returning every time I'm in town!
