A typical afternoon
Our 6 principles
Korean Taekwondo counts in Korean. So do the six things we are really teaching.
The most important value in Taekwondo. For instructors, for parents, for each other.
Doing it properly, even when nobody is counting for you.
Eyes up, ears open. Listening skills start in our class for two-year-olds.
Parents see it growing a little with each class.
Taekwondo is a defensive martial art, and your child's safety is our highest priority.
Where students grow next: helping lead the class and speaking up with confidence.
"We don't teach only physical techniques but also we teach respect, courage, confidence and many more values."
Meet Master Oh
Master Instructor
"For over a decade, I have had the opportunity to teach and work with children and families throughout the South Riding, Aldie, and Stone Ridge communities. My goal is not only to teach martial arts skills, but also to help every student develop confidence, discipline, respect, self-esteem, and a strong body and mind."
And Instructor JP, who a parent says "has a knack for working with young kids and knows how to teach and explain in developmentally appropriate ways while still being silly and fun."
When school is out

From Best One parents
"Classes are not only good exercise, but also promote focus, discipline, and confidence. She has even learned to count and say "thank you" in Korean. I highly recommend Best One."
"My daughter is 4 and she thoroughly enjoys taking taekwondo classes. Instructor JP has the patience of a saint and he is amazing with the littles."
"We originally tried a different well reviewed taekwondo place... my kid was feeling very overwhelmed there. ...they did really well at making my kid feel included."
"My son loves learning taekwondo with Master Oh!! He has been going to him since he was 5 and he's 11 now. Master Oh is kind, patient, works with the kids one on one, is very knowledgeable..."
"This is a hidden gem. Master Oh and Master JP are excellent with kids and are making martial arts fun. My 4.5 loves it and keeps practicing at home."
