I am blessed to be a part of Concord Taekwondo! The atmosphere for training and the quality of instructors here are top notch. The school is accommodating for all age groups as well as experience levels, so there is something for everybody here. Mr. Baxter is a phenomenal instructor and he is very knowledgeable both inside and outside the classroom. He is an excellent role model and really knows how to use Taekwondo to build character and inspire others. The same can be said for all of the other instructors as well. This place feels like a second home to me, and I am grateful to know all of the wonderful people in the community that exists here. Come train with us! You won't regret it.

My 2 sons and my daughter absolutely love it here!

Amazing, patient, and knowledgeable instructors. They are passionate about teaching and helping kids learn all their techniques to succeed with every color belt their earn. But it isn’t just about learning techniques...kids also learn confidence, disciple, focus and so much more! The classes are engaging and fun. It has been great for my son to be able to participate and continue learning with their online class options this year. I highly recommend this school for all ages!

My son loves taking taekwondo here. They provide a supportive environment where students receive continuous feedback in a positive manner.

Great instruction. Great instructors. Great atmosphere for supportive learning. Love this place!

This Taekwondo school is really great! My son is growing at his own pace and the instructors are very helpful and great with the students.

Love our Concord Taekwondo family! Both my daughter and son love it. We just did our first tournament and it was awesome!! I love the principles, discipline and determination being instilled into my kiddos.

Great experience

Since starting this class, I have loss 60 pounds and all levels of my life has improved. I once thanked Mr. Baxter for all the improvements and his response more or less was "your improvements comes from the effort you put in but if you want to thank me continue to show up and improve yourself". This place also has amazing instructors.

It feels like family here.

My son has thrived at Mr.Baxter’s school! He started at 6 year old. He will soon be achieving his first degree black belt as a disciplined, fit, and dedicated nine year old. Wonderful facility, caring and well trained staff, no contracts, flexible class schedules, and optional National and Regional tournaments.

I love everything about this facility...we recently relocated from another state and finding my son an after school activity was key...we shopped around, but Concord Taekwondo America was the best fit...all of the staff are super nice and all of the students are very respectful...my son absolutely LOVES it...and the price is VERY reasonable...couldn't ask for anything more!!!!!

Awesome staff and atmosphere, instructors are great with the kids. My baby looks forward to coming to class.The location is always neat and clean. Mr. Baxter is a great 👍 👌 person to do business with.

I've been going to classes at Concord Taekwondo America for almost 2 years now. They are professional and strive for excellence. The instructors are always encouraging and helpful. I recommend them to anyone I know who might want to improve their physical activity level and do something rewarding and fun!

I love Concord Taekwondo America! All the instructors have the patience of a saint working with young kids! I’m thankful for this program!

It’s been a fun experience so far. Able to learn in a supportive environment.

Amazing dojo. Incredibly competent, knowledgeable, and talented instructors. Life-changing experiences for our son!

The school is always buzzing with positivity. From the moment you're greeted at the door to the moment you leave. You can hold your head up high when you tell others you go here. You learn something new about yourself and what you're capable of every day.

We love everything about Concord Taekwondo! All of the instructors are patient and work with our son to meet the expectations so he can be successful.

My grand daughter has trained at Concord Taekwondo for 3 years and has loved every minute. She enjoys the instructor and fellow students like family, so much that has earned her 1st degree black belt and became a level one instructor as well. I can highly recommend this school. They make a difference!

Just as magnificent as I remember... My brother was a member of Concord TKD many years ago, and I only just recently joined myself. Engaging training sessions throughout the week are taught by well-versed and friendly instructors. There is always a goal to improve, no matter where you are physically, with consideration given by the instructors to never work you beyond your limits. The facility is clean and the sign-up process is hassle-free. I highly recommend Concord TKD for the excellent martial arts education it offers in a welcoming community anyone can find their place in!

My daughter have been going in Concord Taekwondo America, it's a great school and great instructors like Mr Montoya and Ms. Chitty. Mr. Baxter is awesome. 👍

It’s a nice environment. Clean and they have a really good teaching method with the kids.

What an awesome experience!! Top shelf instructors with the skills and knowledge to take your body to the next level. It’s a beneficial and educational environment for men and women and children to grow mentally and physically!! Highly recommended.

Great place, all the instructors have done really well with our kids

Mr. Baxter and his team of instructors are the best! Their teaching style helps to challenge students of all ages mentally as well as physically, all while letting them advance at their own pace and have fun! Their facility is always clean and the staff are always friendly. I would highly recommend to anyone who would like to learn self defense, or anyone just looking for a fun way to get some exercise.

Concord TKD isn't only for children, but for adults too! That’s just one of the many things I love about this school. They have caring instructors, respectful students. They have fun activity’s that also help you improve.

What a great place to learn martial arts. Perfect for kids or adults. Sean Baxter is a real gentleman and an excellent teacher.

My family started at this school in 2005. My wife and all 4 kids have learned and enjoyed the Tae Kwon Do program! Now I am taking my grand kids and we drive 45 miles to get here. What a great school!

If you are looking for a martial arts school with instructors that care about you and your progress, I highly recommend Concord Taekwondo! I started Taekwondo here in the summer of 2018 and I have shown so much personal growth since then. I've become happier, and my social skills have improved. The instructors are so friendly and supportive of everyone who walks through the door. I feel like I'm part of a big family! I am really enjoying my time here at Concord Taekwondo.

Our daughter recently joined and I'm so impressed with their courteous staff, knowledgeable instructors, clean facility, and willingness to pivot with students when extra support is necessary. Don't hesitate to join here!!

They are terrific! THE most dedicated instructors. So happy my kids are here!

Staff are wonderful! Overall great place for anyone to bring their child to learn marital arts!

They have an excellent Taekwondo program! The instructor is incredibly patient and kind with the little kids, always making sure to give each child personal attention. My son absolutely loves coming here—he always looks forward to class, especially the fun little stickers he gets afterward! Since joining, we’ve noticed a big improvement in his focus and discipline. The instructor truly cares about each child’s progress and creates such a positive and encouraging environment. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to build confidence, discipline, and skills in their child!

My 6 year old son has been going here for a month and loves it. Something about Taekwondo brings out discipline and coordination from him that I didn't know was there. One thing to note: the level of difficulty on the adult classes is quite a bit higher (I don't know why that surprised me), so if you go to those, be ready for a more demanding experience. Still very enjoyable, but prepare to sweat.

Highly recommended

Amazing place with great instructors. I recommend this place

My daughter has been coming to this school for years. This is her favorite sport. She likes the challenge that is given to her, and your school can provide that.

Choosing the “right” school for studies in the martial arts can be challenging. There are hundreds of schools all seeming to offer quality instruction. Your search ends at Concord Taekwondo….The instruction, discipline, dedication and family environment is second to none. As a result, my son has received his first degree Black belt and 14 gold medals in tournament competitions. Truly a place dedicated to the art.

Great team of instructors, really care about the students no matter of age, or gender. They definitely respect the traditions of taekwondo.

Best place for youngsters to learn disepline and respect as well as self defense skill.

Love Concord Taekwondo. I've been a student here for over a decade from my adolescence to adulthood. Mr. Baxter has taught me lessons that has gone beyond the workout floor. A great place for children and adults as well. Recommend anyone to go.

Attending as an adult. The teachers are attentive and patient. They care just as much about learning the art themselves as they do about teaching you. Highly recommended.

Wonderful instructors and great lessons for life!

Very Good Facility with very well mastered coaches. They teach with dedication and Patience. My Son love going here. I will recommend this place to whoever is looking for Taekwondo.

We were very impressed with this TaeKwonDo school. The school itself is located in a very convenient location with plenty of parking. Inside, it is squeaky clean and smells great. Everyone is very welcoming and friendly. Our boys are age 4 and 8 and they were able to do free trial classes back to back. The instructors are amazing. Clearly knowledgeable and experienced with the different age groups. They are kind and friendly and thorough and very dedicated to their craft. We were so happy and our boys felt so at home that we decided to sign up. We received 8 weeks of unlimited classes and a full uniform for each child. I love that Mr. Sean has been doing TaeKwonDo for like 40 years and has had the school for 30. You can tell this is his passion and not just a fly by night business. We love how the tenets of TaeKwonDo are carried out and practiced in every aspect. We cannot wait to watch our boys learn and grow under the excellent instruction of Mr. Sean and the other amazing instructors!!!

The entire staff, students and parents have made our transition from Chicago a very welcoming experience. We are glad to be a part of the family!

Very knowledgeable instructors. And very patient. I would highly recommend.

Very friendly environment and very good goal setting approaches for the Kids development. I can see the improvement on my kid's instances. Highly recommended.
