I have been doing Tae Kwon Do for ten years, and been attending In W. Kim's Academy for the past five years. This school is by far the best, most authentic school I have ever trained at in all my life. I started Tae Kwon Do when I was about 5 years old and since then, I have trained at four other schools, including private lessons. When I found In W. Kim's Martial Arts Academy, I began to take classes regularly and in the beginning I learned everything from Poomse (forms) to kicks, combinations, Kyorugi (sparring) and terminology and much more. Throughout my years at the academy, my learning was amplified by Sabom nim to levels I couldn't conceive at the time. This is a Dojang where Belts are earned and not given. I just recently earned my Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do and continue to attend this school. Sabom nim's teachings are unparalleled. I have never had a bad experience at this Dojang. He uses effective methods to teach the right techniques and makes it both enjoyable and challenging. I remember all the times he corrected the little details that made a huge difference. It is very easy to tell that Martial Arts is Sabom nim's life passion. Also, the assistant instructors, trained by Sabom nim himself, are very friendly. While Sabom nim teaches Martial Arts and physical fitness, the school also develops one's self discipline, respect, focus, perseverance, humbleness, confidence, and maturing of the spirit. The amount of gratitude I have for Sabom nim's instruction and life lessons is beyond measurement. If you are looking for a school to train at, this is the one.

This is an amazing school! Beautiful! The membership prices are inexpensive for the services rendered. The instructors are top-of-the-line and the class schedule very flexable. Many different styles to choose from,just check the website for more! I have worked and trained at many Martial Arts schools for the last 20yrs and this is the most organized. If something needs to get done Grandmaster Kim does it right away. he works very hard to make everything run smoothly along with his incredable staff members.The foundation that the school was built on really exists "Integrity" and "Honor". It's great that the Korean master input is put into practice immediatly, straight from Korea!
GO VISIT AND PLEASE MEET THESE PEOPLE THEN YOU WILL FIND THE TRUE VALUE OF MARTIAL ARTs,GOOD LUCK :)
My wife and I visited almost a dozen different dojos including Taekwondo, Judo and Karate before we decided to enroll him under In W. Kim's tutelage. My 6 year old son is very strong willed and questions everything. As such he has problems with first time listening and obedience in general. The moment we walked in the door Sabom Nim Kim came over and started an impactful conversation with my son. He immediately began showing my son the meaning of respect, obedience and the importance of teamwork. His lessons and the fantastic staff that he surrounds himself with continue to amaze me every day. This Dojang has the best instructors we've come across. Their patience and understanding with my son and their ability to guide him positively has me telling everyone I come across what a great decision it was to enroll my son here. My sons behavior has not only improved at home, but in school and all other areas of his life as well thanks to Sabom Nim Kim, Ivan and his staff. This is a very clean, affordable, organized and well rounded Dojang. My son will continue here for many years to come!
