One School. Training Designed for Different Stages of Life.
Blackhawk TaeKwonDo uses age specific classes because preschoolers, kids, teens and adults learn differently and have different goals. Your One Week Trial begins in the program designed for the student’s age.
Little Hawks
Preschool Taekwondo focused on listening, coordination, confidence, respect, balance and age appropriate fundamentals.
Kids & Teen Taekwondo
Structured traditional Taekwondo that develops focus, confidence, discipline, goal setting skills and practical self defense.
Adult Taekwondo
Dedicated adult classes centered on traditional technique, conditioning, mobility, confidence and practical martial arts skills.
A Real Week of Training. No Sales Pressure.
The purpose of the trial is simple: experience Blackhawk TaeKwonDo, ask questions and decide from firsthand experience whether the school is the right fit.

A Familiar Face From the First Class.
For children, we take an extra step to make the first class comfortable. New students are partnered with a student mentor who welcomes them, helps them understand what is happening during class and stays with them throughout the experience.
This gives a new student someone familiar to follow and helps them feel included from the moment they step onto the floor.
Know What to Expect Before You Walk Through the Door.
Your first visit should feel straightforward. You do not need a uniform, previous experience or special equipment to begin.
- Arrive 10 Minutes EarlyUse the front double doors and give yourself time to meet us before class begins.
- Wear the Right ClothingA T shirt and athletic pants are ideal. Please do not wear shorts, tank tops, yoga pants or leggings.
- Bring WaterTraining is active, so bring a water bottle for the student.
- Parents Stay for ChildrenA parent or guardian must remain at the school for the entire children’s trial class. No drop offs.
The Trial Is Also a Chance for Us to Get to Know You.
Blackhawk TaeKwonDo is built around respect, discipline, effort and a positive training environment. During the week, you or your child get to experience the school while the Masters also get to know the student.
Our goal is to create a place where students, families and the Masters can train together with the right attitude and expectations. That is why the trial is about more than simply trying a class. It gives everyone a chance to see whether the environment is the right fit.

Do I need a Taekwondo uniform for the trial?
No. A uniform is not required for the first class. Wear a T shirt and athletic pants that allow comfortable movement and bring a water bottle.
Why do you prefer new students to begin on Monday?
Whenever possible, beginning on Monday gives the student a more complete week, helps establish a routine and makes it easier to experience the consistency that is an important part of Taekwondo training.
Can parents watch their child’s trial class?
Yes. Parents and guardians can watch from our dedicated Parent Lounge and Visitor Lounge. For children’s trial classes, a parent or guardian must remain at the school for the entire class.
Do adults train with children?
