Jhoon Rhee Tae Kwon Do - Arlington

We have had many opportunities to observe and interact with the school. Their emphasis on nurturing a well-rounded individual has always impressed us. The school emphasizes and rewards school achievements and character development. They deliver a detail oriented exercise program that carefully develops strength, balance and confidence.

My son is in love with his Tae Kwon Do classes. Always begging to go and gets sad when he has to miss a class for whatever reason. He is one of the younger kids in the class. They start teaching at 4 and he just turned 4. During class I can see the instructors take extra time with him to help him catch up and learn the ropes. They easily could just try and do the class with 1 instructor, but they have 2 or 3 on the mat at all times. That makes a difference. What he learns from the class is how to be a leader and what that entails. In part respect, but also confidence. These tools are much more about learning how to grow up then ever learning the actual self defense. Well at least for the first couple of years I don't expect him to take down an attacker, but he might know to scream or run. We just signed up for a 1 year extension and hope to go here for many years,
