Martial Arts Schools near Oswego

“Master Cho’s Global Leaders Taekwondo is absolutely incredible –
From day one, we’ve been blown away by how Master Cho and the entire team teach real strength, discipline, and laser-sharp focus while keeping everything FUN and exciting. Our children literally bounce out of bed on class days because they love it so much! Almost every single session feels fresh and unique – new games, creative drills, and engaging challenges that keep even the most energetic kids fully hooked from warm-up to bow-out.
The instructors are patient, encouraging, and truly care about each child’s growth – not just in Taekwondo, but as confident, respectful leaders. We’ve watched our kids’ confidence soar, their ability to focus improve dramatically (even with schoolwork!), and their physical strength and coordination reach new levels – all while they’re laughing and making great friends.
If you’re looking for a martial arts program that builds strong bodies, sharp minds, and big hearts in the most joyful way possible, RUN to Master Cho’s Global Leaders Taekwondo. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough“

“Outstanding support, approachable staff, expert knowledge, and fun to be around. Recommend!“

“As an student from world class Tae Kwon do I find myself energized and more sophisticated in class I started Taekwondo back in 2016 and its been 10 years and my progress has been enhanced a lot !

My regards to Master TJ eskew & Master David Polanski“

“Master Yu is a gem. Master JoAnn and the other younger master are all very caring and helpful. Yong-In Aurora has been a huge part of the community and always help out and support the kids in the community. There ability to teach martial arts and self defense is fantastic!“

“We came to know about this center through our son's school program. Have been sending our son here for a little over one month, and the program has been amazing! Our son is getting the power and strength and the program is helping him focus. Master Kim is very friendly. The co-instructors Master Jung and Co and really helpful as well and accommodating. It's great to see so many helpers/co-instructors help the kids as they need attention and help from time to time. Master Carlos is great with the kids and very approachable! We tried a different center in Naperville and 95th street, where the instructors weren't that great, and glad we made the switch!“

“We love Ace!! It is more than just a place to train in taekwondo- it is a community itself. We know that our 3 children are learning valuable life skills and gaining great leadership experience in addition to doing fun exercise and learning traditional taekwondo. They've made great friends here and our whole family always feels welcomed and cared for by everyone at Ace. Highly recommend!“

“Master Chuck is more than just my Tae Kwon Do instructor. He has taught me important values and given me experiences that have been an integral part of my character and my childhood.Kamsamnida“

“I was one of Tyson's very first customers in 1995. A lot of my discipline comes from him to this day. Highly recommend.“

“Master Yoon has an impressive background and is a very attentive, skilled instructor. He notices every small detail and corrects students’ postures with a sharp eye, ensuring everyone trains at their own pace. My son enjoys coming here for his Taekowndo, and I even decided to join the adult Hapkido class myself. It is more challenging than Pilates I used to do, but it has helped improve my overall fitness and even lowered my physical body age! (Measured with a machine at my Dr office :P)

Since we train together, my son and I feel more energetic and capable of protecting ourselves — not just from “bad guys,” but also from daily stress! ;D I highly recommend this gym to anyone who wants to strengthen both body and mind under expert guidance.“

“The gym is outstanding. Coach Brian is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about BJJ. The atmosphere is welcoming with Coach Brian providing proper guidance ensuring each student progresses at their own pace. Highly recommend for anyone looking to improve their skills and physical fitness level.“

“The best traditional Shotokan Karate dojo! Sensei Dhawan’s passion and dedication to his students truly make this place special. Every class is inspiring and focused on both skill and character development. Highly recommended!“

“My son has been a student at Eagle Academy for a year now, and the growth he’s experienced during that time has been truly remarkable. His focus, goal-setting abilities, and personal development have all strengthened in ways that have exceeded our expectations.

As a family, we’ve found a genuine sense of community and friendship at Eagle Academy. For my son, the progress in both his martial arts skills and personal growth has been wonderful to see. He’s now a proud member of the Black Belt Club as well as Team Eagle, the academy’s Martial Arts Performance Team.

I wholeheartedly recommend Eagle Academy to anyone—children or adults—whether you're just starting your martial arts journey or returning to it after time away. It’s an inspiring and supportive environment where growth happens on every level.“

“So grateful we found this incredible judo community. The teachers are skilled, thoughtful, professional, and excellent with all ages. The owner honors the traditional values of judo. My son loves class. Highly recommend this dojo for classes for both kids and adults.“

“I have attended a few parties there and one community event. Its an great place, very pretty, simple yet impressive design. Staff there is very helpful, polite and efficient.“

“Eddie's one of the very best. Professional, serious, responsible. Highly recommend“

“Grand Master John is awesome. My son started his Taekwondo Journey almost one year ago. He never missed it because he truly enjoy being in class. Everything is built on respect, discipline and family.“
