We are so glad we found Charleston Taekwondo. My son is small for his age and asked to do martial arts. We enrolled him in classes here and he is thriving. The instructors are so good with all the kids and the kids not only learn, but have so much fun. Highly recommend!

We’ve been attending for just a few months and my son’s focus, confidence and level of respect has greatly improved. He loves coming to class, and I love how the instructors are firm but kind in their corrections. I’ve loved seeing the improvement in my son’s behavior and skill level in the short time we’ve been coming!

My daughter is always eager to get to class so that she can learn something new. At first she wanted to go but she really didn’t want to do the work, but once she started really getting into it and enjoying herself she loves it.

Our son has been attending CTKD since March of this year and he has progressed not only in belts but in discipline, physical exercise and some Korean. Master Gable, Miss Yujin, and the other staff here are a Great Team! They all work together to ensure that their mission of training the next generation of EXPERT BLACK BELTS become a reality!! We love the added discipline it has taught our son which is why we were initially interested. Classes last 45 minutes just perfect fort these kids nowadays!!

The experience seen has been pleasant so far, I like the engagement with the kids. I have personally seen a growth of a kid who was not focused improve over the course of classes. The camaraderie is amazing among the kids they enhance the skills in each other!!! The instructors are helpful and patient engaging with the students it’s a joy to watch.

Master Gable is a positive role model that genuinely cares for my kids. I’m very pleased with the results in just four months. The classes have helped my kids learn how to flow in a routine and understand the process of achieving one’s goals. Earning every belt, one belt at a time.

I have enrolled my two children in classes with CT. We are so pleased with the level of professionalism from Master Gable and his wife. They are an excellent team!! Master Gables knowledge of the sport is only rivaled by his incredible patience and compassion. He knows when to challenge a student and when to encourage. My teenagers confidence has gone up dramatically and my toddler is listening better at home and working hard in class. The facility is very clean and the environment is very positive and supports the pupils and family members. I would recommend CT to anyone! Yes they can!!!

My kids competed in their first tournament Saturday! They did an amazing job! Thank you to Master Gabel and All the great staff and help at Charleston Taekwondo - Summerville for all the hard work, especially with My daughter! She has made a tremendous leap in her confidence. Not only did she perform in front of a crowd of people staring at her, she killed it with her form and board breaking. My sons focus has improved significantly also and was able to take first place in board breaking. We are excited to be a part of the Charleston Taekwondo family.

I was a little hesitant initially about signing my kids up for classes/ lessons. I was concerned they would try using it on each other! However, Master Gabol strengthened the home- class connection by telling students home behavior also had Taekwondo consequences.I love that there are so many instructors/ leaders assisting with classes, there is always a positive vibe, and students are engaging in a lot of movement throughout sessions. Great job Summerville! Thank you!

If you’re interested in your child learning to be disciplined, able to focus, more coordinated, stretched mentally and physically, than this is the place for you. One of my children has learned and recites the “Yes, I can” every time he thinks something is too hard for him. In the past, when those things came up, it used to be even harder with an “I can’t attitude. Special thanks to Mr. Gable and his amazing team.

I love watching how much my children grow from coming to Charleston Taekwondo. Our kids never get tired of coming here. The whole staff is awesome and so professional but they also get down to their level. My daughter is very shy and I love how she interacts with everyone.

Just want to shout out to Master Gable and Master Yujin! I cannot comprehend the amount of patience you guys must have to be able to teach these children the way you all do. My daughter has learned so much in her short period of time in your class. The way that you all teach them integrity, perseverance, strength and dignity is uncanny! THANK YOU! And the entire Summerville staff for teaching my daughter and our whole family the fundamentals of Taekwondo! We cant wait to learn more further along the way!

Keep up the great work Master Gabel and Ms. Yujn, you are an asset to this company and deserve a raise for your compassionate nature and the love you show each student.

Our son (6) has been attending here for about five months now! We attended another facility and it wasn’t the right fit! Master Gabel and Yujin have been nothing short of great with Thomas! Communication is important when working with an organization that supports emotional, mental and physical growth in your children. Both Master Gabel and Yujin have taken the time with me when I have had concerns about our son. We have seen Thomas grow so much in his time at Charleston TKD!In addition to the classes he takes, we also joined the virtual school program! CTKD picks him up at school and completes the required second half of the day in virtual learning for DD2. Even our sons teacher has shared with me “they are amazing!”I would recommend CTKD to anyone! 🥋❤️🥋

Charleston Taekwondo- Summerville has been amazing for my three daughters. They range in age 4, 7, 16 and Master Gabel does a fantastic job teaching each of them on their level. The atmosphere is great, the staff is very helpful and informative. The whole family enjoys going. My girls are learning the art of Martial Arts and it shows in their personalities at Taekwondo and we are noticing a positive difference at home as well.

We were looking for a way to get my 7 year old autistic son involved in a sport and a great friend of ours highly recommended Charleston Taekwando. We started with the 2 week free trial and my son loved it so much that we joined. Master Gabel and Ms. Yujin have so much patience with him and encourage him with enthusiasm. Mr. Manquen and Ms. Samara are also wonderful with the students. My son is learning confidence and attention skills along with martial arts.

My 9 year old son and I (a 41year old out of shape stay-at-home mom) started taking classes as soon as the Summerville location opened. My son begrudgingly went to the first trial class with me but he loved the classes and so did I. Master Gable is an awesome teacher. Hes patient, fun, and knowledgeable. Master Gable does a great job working on character development with the kids. Hes also been good at challenging the adults to push their comfort zone to improve technique. My son and I are improving our fitness in such a fun way!

If you are looking for a wonderful atmosphere for your child and/or yourself to take Taekwondo look no further. Charleston Taekwondo Summerville has been the best right from the start! Not only do you get enough free lessons to really gauge if this is the right martial arts for you (we really appreciated that) but the staff is amazing and the dojo is nice. They are also taking precautions amidst COVID which we really appreciate. My family can’t say enough great things about the staff in particular Ms. Yujin! She has been so wonderful right from the beginning answering all of our questions and really making us feel so welcomed. Our daughter really decided this dojo because of the way she felt so welcomed and comfortable by Ms. Yujin. Our daughter is truly excited about furthering her martial arts skills here. Thank you Charleston Taekwondo Summerville!

It has been a lot of fun taking the Taekwondo classes here. Master Gable is really nice and amazing with all the kids in the classes. Yujn is also a beautiful woman who helps out all the new kids who need it and greets everyone at the door with such kindness. Getting 2 weeks free is amazing. Thats 4 classes and it gives you a great idea on what the class is like. I highly recommend this location for Taekwondo if you are interested. And... Im a real student. I dont work there, so Im being truly honest. Lol
