We've had such a great experience here! My children have been attending classes here for about a year, and the growth we've seen in their confidence, discipline, and physical fitness has been amazing.

The instructors are not only highly skilled but also incredibly patient and encouraging with the kids. They make every class engaging and fun, while also emphasizing respect, focus, and perseverance... values that go beyond the mat.

We truly appreciate the supportive environment and the way the staff connects with each student. It's clear that they care deeply about each child's progress, both as martial artists and as individuals.

Highly recommend to any parent looking for a structured, positive, and empowering extracurricular activity for their children!

Savannah Black Belt Academy’s, Taekwondo program has been amazing for my child! The instructors are incredible—both skilled and patient—and they know how to make learning fun while keeping discipline in focus. It’s been wonderful to see my child’s confidence grow as she learned new skills in such an encouraging environment. I couldn’t be happier with the core impact it’s had and the experience overall. We highly recommend them for their professionalism and dedication to their work, which creates positive outcomes for our local community.

(4-5yo class) I cannot say enough positives about this place! If you, want the teachers to know their names, know and understand their strengths and weaknesses and actually challenge them! This is it! How they know every child’s name day 1 is beyond me! My child was an introverted 3 year old and then enrolled in the 4- yr old class! He absolutely loves it! My 1 yr old is dying watching from the sidelines! The instructors care about his well being and encourage healthy mind/body/spirit! I cannot encourage you enough to sign your child up for this program! That absolutely care! My 1 year old was having a meltdown and master Richard (the owner) out of his own kindness brought my kid a flag patch for free! What a great soul!! My son may never get his black belt but these men have made such an impact! Even when he acted up in the car, I said, “do I need to get Mr Murray to talk to you?”: his face went blank and nope! Instant behavioral reversal! If you questioning this! Just do it!!!

Wonderful and interesting place for your karate student to have a birthday party.

We are having a blast watching the teacher, Ashton, and kids present and have fun.

We've only been here for a month but I can already see an improvement in my son's ability to focus. His excitement for practice and conversations about improving for the next classes gives me confidence that we will be around for a while. I'm planning to enroll my toddler once he turns four as he is already mimicking what my son learns during practice. The staff is super friendly and great with the kids. If martial arts is something you're considering for your little ones definitely start here!

This is the absolute BEST place for your child. Hands down. Whether your child is having difficulty at school or at home or even if your child is a perfect angel, they will learn so much from Master Richard, Mr. Murray, and Mr. Drescher. They teach self-confidence along with self-defense. I never knew that you could learn so much about life just by learning taekwondo. They also have the most supportive group of parents at this school. This might be coincidental, but the instructors make the whole family (not just the students) feel right at home here. They offer classes for adults too - Adult Taekwondo, Kickboxing, and Krav Maga. We can learn how to defend ourselves too - in a fun and exciting way! No matter your age, I highly recommend this school!!!

This is the best place for your child to learn taekwondo. Master Jim Richard and his staff have a teaching style that makes learning fun. Plus, they learn so much more than martial arts - they learn self-discipline, self-control, respect, integrity, and self-defense. They simply learn how to be a good person.
They also offer kickboxing and Krav Maga for the adults. Action-packed workouts with an incredible support system. The entire class becomes your workout buddy.
Wonderful school - couldn't recommend it more!

We were very luck to have our girls learn from Master Richard and Mr Murray. They run a first class operation and are always positive and offer great instruction. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone I know.

I went to my first ever kickboxing class here today and I LOVED IT. The work out was so fun! The first class was free and I received a really great deal on my boxing gloves and classes. I would recommend this is anyone starting out or who’s just curious. The work out is great, the instructor is awesome and the community there is welcoming!

We moved to Savannah in the summer of 2012. My son has been doing Tae Kwon Do for 3 years and it was important to find a good school that he could continue everything he has learned. We could not be more pleased with the quality of instructors, and the school. The instructors learns the names of every single child that takes classes, personalizes instruction to the level of each child and I am amazed at the dedication that is given. Master Richards and his staff go above and beyond to help their students learn the discipline and techniques of Tae Kwon Do.
