My son trains at the Irmo location of Legacy Martial Arts, and it’s been a great experience for our family. Coach Kenn does an outstanding job keeping him engaged, focused, and genuinely excited to show up every class. That consistency matters, especially with kids. What stands out is how well the instructors balance discipline with fun. They’re not just teaching techniques, they’re building confidence, respect, and work ethic. That lines up with what many other parents report, seeing noticeable growth in their kids’ confidence and focus after just a few months. The environment is very family-oriented and supportive. It’s clear the coaches actually care about each student’s development, not just in martial arts but in life skills as well. Parents consistently mention the positive culture, encouragement from instructors, and how kids stay motivated long-term. If you’re looking for a place that keeps kids engaged while teaching discipline and confidence, Legacy in Irmo is a strong option. Coach Kenn has been a big part of making that experience meaningful for my son.
Outstanding classes great couches I would recommend this course to everyone.
We love Legacy Martial Arts of Irmo! My son hated to do any physical activity until he went to a trial class at Legacy back in August. Now we are 7 months into his tae kwon do journey, just finished his first tournament, gearing up for his next belt test and couldn’t be more proud of all the accomplishments he has made. They have really helped him come out of his shell.
