Martial Arts Schools near Shoreline

“My son has been training under Master Han for years and he is absolutely the best instructor around. He and Mrs. Han are great with the kids, meeting them at their skill level and helping them develop and grow over the long haul. My son loves it so much that he has chosen to spend his entire summers in their Taekwondo Summer Camp. We’re so glad to have found them, and can’t imagine being part of another dojang.“

“Awesome Senseis, the group classes are really fun and lots of different ages, types of people. I lost a bunch of weight working out here and have also gained a ton of knowledge in self defense, discipline, and learning I CAN do things if I never thought I could if I work hard enough. I also love that this dojo is women owned! Master Jennifer is such a compassionate person who has taught me so much in the two years I have been coming. Sensei Raven is pretty awesome too, it’s a really well rounded team to help you achieve your goals.“

Super kind knowledgeable and respectful. Highly recommend taking their courses. Let’s support this place and the empowerment they do!“

“Mr. Scott has been instructing my two kids for almost a year and a half. He is easily one of the best youth instructors I have encountered across ANY sport. The attention and care that he gives to his students is outstanding. Very few people understand how much someone can learn through play, and Mr. Scott is one of those people. My kids have learned so much and their personal growth over their time enrolled at Seattle White Tiger Kung Fu has been quite rewarding to watch.“

“We’ve been part of the Seattle Taekwondo family for over three years now, and I can confidently say it has been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our children. Both of my boys, Baraa and Anas, have grown tremendously—not just in their Taekwondo skills, but in their confidence, discipline, and focus.
The instructors here are incredibly dedicated, patient, and inspiring. They know how to motivate the children while maintaining respect and structure in every class. It’s clear they genuinely care about each student’s progress, both on and off the mat.
Over the years, I’ve watched Baraa and Anas become more confident in themselves, physically stronger, and mentally more resilient. They look forward to every class, and they take pride in what they’ve learned. The atmosphere is always positive, safe, and welcoming—like an extended family.
Seattle Taekwondo isn’t just about martial arts—it’s about building character and empowering kids for life. We are beyond grateful for the amazing experience and highly recommend it to any family looking for a place that truly supports children’s growth.“

“Patient and kind masters are amazing for the neurodivergent and neurotypical kids! Amazing!“

“Kickboxing at this gym has become one of the most important parts of my week! I love my class and instructor, it’s a great workout and such a fun skill to learn. I work my full body, and my back pain (due to muscle tension during the workday) has disappeared. Punching and kicking is the best catharsis no matter what is happening in the world.“

“We’ve had a wonderful experience with Shin's Taekwondo academy. Being a blackbelt school really makes a difference in terms of taking the skill and art seriously. The instructors strike a great balance between discipline and encouragement, creating an environment where students build confidence, focus, and respect alongside their technical skills. It’s been great to see such growth — both on and off the mat. Highly recommend for families looking for a supportive and well-run program.“

“Active has given us the opportunity to strengthen our communication skills and encourage confidence in advocating for ourselves. I cannot recommend this program enough.“

“I attended TKD Way back in 2014 for a year after 10 years at a different studio in a different state, and the only reason I left was because my family relocated again (military brat). Although I was there for a short time, the impact Master Auhn had was huge. His black belt classes were challenging and fun, and his energy made me want to learn as much as I could from him. I'm glad to see business is doing well.“

“Been training here for 10 years and I can say that this community is a family, and training here has shaped who I am today.“
