From the reviews
What a great facility! Clean, organized and very beginner friendly (of course in the white belt classes). The instructors were all kind and helpful. Much better than Gracie Barra ( at least for my 8 and 11 yr old just trying martial arts)
Tiger Rock is an excellent Tae Kwon Do Academy. The staff is very professional and kind hearted towards all of their students. My son has taken lessons for a year and a half and loves it!
It's awsome been here for years the instructors are friendly and the community is amazing
Love it !! My daughter has been going here for a couple of months now and it has been great! The level of respect the instructors expect from the kids is great!! I appreciate how they ensure your child learns to be respectful. My daughter loves it!!
New to kickboxing? Start at Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Katy
Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Katy comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first kickboxing class at Tiger-Rock Martial Arts of Katy
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
