Stories from the Highkicks community.
“My son has completely transformed. His focus in school improved, his confidence is through the roof, and he genuinely loves coming to class. The instructors are incredible with kids.”
Sarah M.
Ethan, age 9 · Children’s Taekwondo
“We were nervous about starting martial arts at age 4, but the Tiny Tigers program is perfectly designed. Mia listens better at home and is so proud of her belts.”
James L.
Mia, age 5 · Tiny Tigers
“Highkicks gave my son a community and a goal. He went from shy and quiet to leading warm-ups. The respect and discipline they teach goes far beyond the dojo.”
Priya K.
Arjun, age 12 · Children’s & Teens
“Started at 36 with zero experience. Two years later I’m a brown belt and in the best shape of my life. It’s never too late — this is the best decision I’ve made.”
Michael R.
Adult Taekwondo
“Both my kids train here and the difference is night and day. The instructors know each child by name and truly care. We’ve been a Highkicks family for 4 years.”
Diana T.

“The stress relief alone is worth it. But earning my Black Belt at 44 with my kids watching? Unforgettable. Highkicks changed how I approach every challenge.”

Good to know
Questions parents ask.
Everything you need to know before your first class.
What should my child bring to the first class?
Just comfortable athletic clothes and a water bottle — no uniform or equipment needed for the trial. Arrive about 10 minutes early so we can get you settled, meet the instructor, and give your child a quick tour of the studio.
Does my child need any experience to start?
Not at all. Every student starts at white belt and progresses at their own pace. Our instructors are experts at teaching beginners, and classes are grouped so first-timers learn alongside peers at a similar level.
How do you track my child’s progress?
Each student earns stripes on their belt for mastering specific skills and progresses through belt testing. Parents receive progress updates, and every belt promotion is celebrated. Ask your instructor about the milestones for your child’s program.
How often should we come to class?
Two classes per week is ideal for steady progress, though we offer flexible scheduling. Consistency matters more than intensity — we’ll help you find a routine that fits your family’s calendar.
What ages do you teach?
Tiny Tigers (ages 4–6), Children’s Taekwondo (7–12), and Teen & Adult classes (13+). Each program is tailored to its age group’s physical and developmental needs.
What if my child is nervous or shy?
That’s completely normal and exactly why we start with a free trial. Our instructors help new students feel safe and successful from day one.
How long does it take to earn a Black Belt?
For most students training consistently, the journey takes several years. It’s a personal journey rather than a race, and the character built along the way matters more than the timeline.
Do you offer family plans or discounts?
Yes — we offer family discounts when multiple household members enroll, plus flexible membership options. Ask during your free trial and we’ll discuss the best plan for your family.
