“We have loved Ince karate for our son since he was 5 years old. Every experience has been great, from the regular night classes, karate summer camp, to the professionally run after school program. We love their commitment to family values and personal ethical code. Can't wait to start our second son here!“

“My oldest child has been here for over a year now and my second child recently started as well. I appreciate how patient Master Jang and instructor Vasquez have been with both of my children. I highly recommend this place. Very spacious and nice game room with toys for the younger siblings.“

“My daughter had been coming here for a year and she loves it. They are very supportive and they challenge the kids in a positive way. We highly recommend it!“

“This school is awesome. We are so blessed to be a part of it. The instructors are caring, professional and great at their jobs. They not only teach martial arts but respect and diligence. The school is a big family that encourages one another. Many students participate in tournaments and although we know winning won't happen every time, there are many state, district and world title holders who attend; which reflects the quality and dedication of both the staff and students. They have 3 locations as well. Our family is very blessed that God led us here.“

“The very best program my grandkids have been in. I highly recommend their take Kwon Do class. The growth you will see is immeasurable.“

“My son who is now eight has been coming to this dojo for one year. Before choosing, we’ve tried out a class, in almost every existing studio in the Kuykendahl/Louetta Spring area. We need it down to two, but ultimately Ultimate Warrior because I came highly recommended by a trusted friend, and I agreed with the methodology of its owner Jake and his staff. They are firm and nurturing, disciplined, yet still fun. Other successful places in the area wasn’t a great fit as they felt more industrial and performed for appearances than what I had in mind.I ultimately chose ultimate warrior for my son, because he has fun while learning to protect himself at a very natural pace. Further, because my son is clumsy… They also work on “how to” fall effectively. After just one of these classes, my son was riding horse riding and was bucked off the rear from about 6 foot off the ground. As he fell, he automatically went into a forward fall position and saved his face and glasses from hitting the ground. Needless to say, after seeing this, I am sold that the methods taught here are effective and strategies used for learning these skills are something that kids can relate to easily.An added bonus is that Jake must have a radar that draws in good people. All the parents I’ve met here have been really kind and so are the students and coaches.“

“If you’re looking for a martial arts school in The Woodlands area, look no further! Kuk Sool Won of The Woodlands is a long-established, professional, and truly outstanding martial arts school. School owner Joe Foster has been training in Kuk Sool Won for over 40 years, and it shows. His depth of knowledge is exceptional and far beyond what you’ll find at most martial art schools. Even more impressive is his attention to detail and the genuine care he shows for every student who walks through the door. The instruction is structured, professional, and rooted in tradition, while still creating a supportive and encouraging environment for students of all ages. If you want traditional martial arts training from someone with decades of experience and passion for teaching, this is the place. Highly recommend!“

“Great program - if you are looking for a place for your kids or yourself to learn Taekwondo and have a great time, you will do no wrong in choosing Tiger-Rock of Creekside.
Master Bicknell is one of those with the special ability to teach and impose discipline while keeping a fun environment the whole time.
My son joined the program almost two years ago and we have seen him growing as an athlete and a young man - a big part of that we credit to Master Bicknell and the crew of instructors over there.“

All the instructors are amazing especially Mr. Hurst and Mr. Brewster. Taekwondo definitely boosted my self confidence. I would definitely recommend this place for you or your child“
