Taekwondo isn't just for boys! I have two girls in Tiger Rock-- I wanted them to learn some self defense and confidence before they went out into the world on their own. We've been going a year now and out of all the extra curricular things they have tried, this is the one that will serve them best in life.

Ā Ā Ā Read moreMy daughter has been a student at Luke Blackburnās Tiger Rock school for a year and it has been THE most amazing experience that goes far beyond just the martial art! Luke is such a caring teacher and understands and can communicate such intricate detail about form but is also such an inspiring role model to the kids. I love how he involves older kids into the Leadership program to help train and reinforce on other levels which builds such an amazing community. Class is never stagnant and tournaments are a blast!
