Martial Arts Schools near Lakeway

“I joined this gym about a year ago with zero experience, originally just bringing my daughter who had already been training for six months. Watching her train motivated me to step on the mats myself, and I’m really glad I did.

From day one, the coaching was patient, detailed, and welcoming to someone brand new. The environment strikes a great balance — serious about training, but supportive and ego-free. Over the last year I’ve grown a lot, not just technically, but in confidence and discipline as well.

I’m moving on for personal reasons, but I’m grateful for the experience and for how they treated both me and my daughter. If you’re considering starting — especially as a beginner or as a parent with a child in the program — this is a great place to train.

Five stars without hesitation.“

“Master Kim is the best martial arts instructor I have ever had. Anyone should consider themselves lucky to train under him. His school is for serious students of martial arts but he embraces all levels of skill and fitness. As long as one is willing to put in the hard work you will see results. Finally, here is a great family atmosphere.“

“My 10 year old son hasn’t loved any sport or extra-curricular as much as he loves KSW! Kids and coaches of all levels and ages support one another by helping with one on one training. It’s really a community of learners! As a parent I also very much appreciate the kindness and positive attitude of the owners and coaches. I can tell the care!“
