Focus, respect, and real self-defense — taught belt by belt, in the same facility Excel Martial Arts has trained Woodbury kids in since 1987.
Every class is built on the ATA Songahm Taekwondo curriculum, but what parents notice first isn't the kicks. It's what shows up at home and at school.
Nine ranks between white belt and black belt — each one a visible, achievable milestone that teaches patience as much as technique.
Fantastic coaches and program for kids. We have been so impressed with how amazing all the coaches are. My 5 yo has loved coming here and the learning and discipline are outstanding and just the perfect level for each age group.
The primary teachers are long tenured black belts and one is even a certified Master instructor! What's really awesome is they often have a couple older kids who are purple to black belts that support and assist on the younger kids classes — such a cool learning and mentoring experience for all the kids.
Very happy customer for many years now. My son has received excellent instruction from a very dedicated staff, led by Master Niska. I would highly recommend to others looking for an awesome school in the East metro area.
Your child's first class is free — no contract, no pressure. Just a real class, on a real mat, with a real belt system to work toward.
Our Guarantee: attend twice a week for four weeks. If you don't see it in your child — more focus, more confidence, more follow-through — we'll refund your first month. No questions asked.
We start kids Taekwondo at age 6. Classes are grouped by age and skill level so your child is always training alongside kids at a similar stage.
No experience needed — most kids start at white belt with zero background. Just comfortable clothes for the first free class; we'll walk you through uniform and gear from there.
It varies by student, but our nine-rank belt system is designed as a multi-year journey — the point isn't to rush it, it's to build real skill and character at each level.
