Martial Arts Schools in Richardson

“Great gym, with some great techniques and people. Everyone there, including the front desk ladies were super nice and a pleasure to train with. 10/10 would come back.“

“It has been an awesome and enlightening experience really appreciate Justin's approach...“

“So good 5 stars, it made my sons belly go down and he is more respectful and when they push you they don't hate you they make you get better you should definitely sigh up here and if your son/daughter is soft they will make him/her stronger.“

“We have been attending Legendary for almost three years, and our daughter has really grown thanks to them. She has learned self-defense, life skills, focus, and has seen improvement through her hard work. She loves it so much, she insisted on having her birthday party at Legendary and all her friends and classmates loved it. (She especially loved cutting her birthday cake with a katana).

We love that Legendary has family classes, so instead of sitting on the sidelines watching, we can learn martial arts and get a great workout as well!

The owners have made Legendary really feel like family. Coach Denny is skilled, patient with the kids while maintaining discipline with the class, and shows how skills are applicable to tournament and self-defense situations.

We have been in their aftercare programs, Tae Kwondo classes, parents nights out, and summer camps and recommend them all!“

“Great place and people!! Kids have learned a lot and developed self confidence that translated in other aspects of their lives. Highly recommend!!“

“My journey to earning a black belt has been anything but linear, yet every twist in the path made the achievement more meaningful. I first stepped into the world of martial arts at the age of twelve. For several years, I trained with the kind of passion only a child can sustain — pure, eager, and unburdened. But as high school academics intensified, training slowly slipped out of my routine. Even then, martial arts never truly left me; it lingered quietly in the back of my mind, waiting for the right moment to return. It took over ten years before that moment arrived. In my late twenties, I found my way back to training, rediscovering the discipline and joy I had missed. But soon graduate school and work demanded more of my time, and once again, martial arts drifted out of reach. Another decade passed. In 2020, everything changed unexpectedly. I brought my five‑year‑old daughter to her first Taekwondo class, thinking only about her experience. On a whim, I asked whether they offered adult classes. Without hesitation, Grandmaster Atoun tossed me a uniform and told me to join in. I did — and instantly felt as though I had returned to a part of myself I had been missing since childhood. This time, I refused to let life pull me away again. Work and travel often interrupted my rhythm, but I kept going, even if slowly. Reaching black belt became not just a goal but a promise to myself. Today, I am grateful I kept that promise. I owe thanks to Grandmaster Atoun for his unwavering encouragement, and to my daughter, whose excitement at training together made the journey even more special. Together, we turned a long‑delayed dream into a shared accomplishment.“

“They worked with my oldest boy in a way that was so intentional and loving. REALLY appreciated Master Kim and his son. I could not be more appreciative!“
