Core Martial Arts

We love this place!!! My husband was looking for a martial art place for my two kids, we checked different on around this area and decided to come to this one for two main reasons, one is the schedule is very flexible, gives you many choices, and you can even come everyday! two is the classes are 40 minuets. Most places we asked are only gave 30 minuets classes. My daughter is 5 and she always said no to martial art classes, but ever since she had a sample class at core she just fell in love with it and wanted to go to everyday which is what we are doing right now. My son barely turned 3 when we started going there and he is very difficult sometimes but the teachers there are very nice and patient, and I could see a huge improvement on my kids. Gooooooood choice of sending my kids there.

Been coming here for about 6 months now. My 5 year old son comes here and I love love watching him do tkd. My son had grown so much since working with Master Alex. He’s matured and continues to develop strong gross motor skills. Master Alex is a great and patient instructor. My son just loves him and looks forward to class all the time even when he’s sick!

My daughter has been with this Taekwondo studio since it opened. The instructors are great and practice teaching with encouragement and making lessons engaging. Masters Alex and Chris are great at building up self confidence in their students. She’s now a teenager and still loves going. Highly recommended!

I had searched for a places to take my 5 year old to do martial arts, I am glad to have found this place. The instructor is good with the kids, the place is nice neat and big. I am excited for my son. I look forward to watching him grow, and learn in this sport. I have already seen a lot of progress in his techniques and his behavior at home. They teach them to not only strive to be better in the sport but as a son a student and as person in life.

I signed my niece up to receive training at Core Martial Arts about 4 months ago. Having doing so was the best thing I ever did. My niece has learned so much w/​Master Alex & Master Chris. I love the quality of class and my niece couldn’t be happier. They do train you to the core! Is a great satisfaction to know that your child will be given the proper training not just for self defense but also to help them with their discipline and self confidence. Taekwando has helped my niece to be more outspoken and sociable. I definitely recommend Core Martial Arts to anyone who wants to join, is tailored to all ages!

We started our 5 year old daughter with Core Martial Arts in San Dimas a few months ago, first on the 4-​month trial and eventually signed up. We could not have made a better investment. I was a bit nervous at first because at the time of our first few visits, it was only Master Alex because Master Chris was injured. I soon became comfortable when I noticed how Master Alex really tried to give each student the attention they needed and he even made a huge effort to know everyone’s name in class… impressive! The difference in our child is noticeable especially in the area of confidence and determination, since taking classes at Core. She is so excited to go to class and learn her new moves and of course, as she says, to make Master Alex proud of her. I’m very content with Core Martial Arts and although I’m hesitant to share this gem out of fear of it getting too popular, I must commend and highly recommend this studio for anyone looking for a non-​chain, over-​priced studios, like the others I’ve interviewed. Thank you Master Alex and Master Chris (can’t wait for you to get better and return to the mat).
P. S.- The facility is so clean and well ventilated. The space is indicative of the people that run it.
