Searching for an activity for my 4 year old grandson and he's found an amazing home! The facility is nice, the instructors are welcoming and it's easy to tell that they are committed to bringing a structured, caring environment. The difference in my grandson was very positive within two lessons. He's more confident, focused and enjoying his skills.

There are not enough words to describe just how much I love this place. My son started back at the beginning of February and I have seen so much growth and change in his demeanor for the better. They are absolutely phenomenal with their students connecting with each and every one of them. The instructors provide them with not only the martial skills, but life skills, discipline, and structure on levels that even the youngest of students adapt to with ease. From the very moment my little one started he has been eager to learn and to grow. He opened up to the instructors right away, something I initially was worried about. They squashed that worry when he was high fiving and running their obstacle course, giving thumbs up and huge smiles. We registered him immediately upon seeing their ability to easily connect with him
The instructors are always very informative about any questions or concerns you may have. They give so much positive reinforcement, and have worked with me to encourage my son to do great things, not just in the dojo but in all areas of life. They help them set and achieve goals, identify aspects that need improvement and help them grow in ways a parent dreams for their child. Training doesn't stop when class is over.
I recommend them to all of my coworkers and friends. If you're thinking of taking your little one or even joining yourself it's totally worth it. They even have an open house night where newcomers are welcome to go in and give it a try with no strings attached . Go ahead and check them out you won't regret it.

By far the best TKD style martial arts studio/dojang around. I can't speak for any of the jujitsu places, but this beats all the other TKD schools in the area.The training is good.The facilities are clean.The people are friendly.Most importantly, the head instructor cares about what he does and reinvests in the school.

Joe Calhoun is so good with his young students. He is firm and loving all at the same time. His gym on Pass Road is the perfect environment for young kids to learn to follow the rules/routines, be organized/responsible for their things, and take direction. He gives quick sharp commands for students to sit down and follow directions, but it is most often done with a twinkle in his eye.Before signing my 6-year old up I was hesitant and had reservation, but by the end of the free trial class I was on board and very willing to become a part of the Tiger Rock Family.

My son Kole has learned so much, it gives him a sense of pride and confidence. Master Calhoun is great with all his students he takes time to get to know all of them. And Instructor and front desk worker Janice treats all of the kids like they are her own. We love this place.
