Will there be other beginners in my class?
Yes, certainly. Our classes are divided by age and rank. Some lessons are for beginner students only. Some are open to all belt ranks and the students are more diverse. They are still excellent classes for beginners to attend.

I'm not very flexible. Can I still train in martial arts?
Oh, sure. We spend a little time in each class stretching, so gradually your flexibility will improve. People who are not flexible can still be strong and fast.

How many times each week can students work out?
We offer classes for beginner students six days per week, and students are encouraged to work out as often as they like. It is good to work out two times per week, but three times is better. Personal workouts at home are also recommended.

Who teaches the classes?
Senior Instructors teach the classes. Our instructors are certified and highly experienced. To assist in the classes, Mr. Rogers selects First Degree Decided Black Belts and above who are not only excellent martial artists, but also clear communicators and experienced at working with children.

Do you offer family member discounts?
Sure we do! Additional family members train in taekwondo for a significantly reduced rate! A one-time enrollment fee does apply for each student.

Do I have to sign a contract?
No. Taekwondo America does not require contracts. Our students pay month-to-month. You do not pay for any month that you do not take lessons. There are no exit fees, deposits, annual fees, or auto-withdrawal requirements.

Where do I get the uniform?
We sell uniforms at the academy. We try to keep all sizes in stock. They cost about $30. However, you are not required to have a uniform until your first belt test. It is fine to work out in shorts or sweats until you can purchase a uniform.

Are students required to compete in tournaments?
No, it is not required, but it is highly recommended that you participate in tournaments during your training. It is a relatively safe way to challenge yourself to face an opponent that you haven't faced before, and to see how well you perform in a nervous situation.

How do I enroll?
After your free class and/or introductory special, you pay the one-time enrollment fee and the first month's tuition. You may attend as many classes as you want each month. There is one small information form to fill out. Get Started Today!

How much does it cost?
The one-time enrollment fee is $65 for your first family member and $50 for each additional family member. The monthly tuition is $98 for your first family member and $58 for each additional family member. This tuition covers unlimited classes! "Family Member" means immediate family, i.e. your spouse or your child. The only other expenses that you will incur are the price of a uniform (about $30) needed for your first test, and periodic testing fees ($40 every two months if eligible). Green belts and above need sparring gear, which costs about $100, also available through the school.
