For high school students, we teach self-defense, self-discipline, and respect for authority. At the same time, we instill values of leadership and good citizenship. These are tomorrow’s leaders—and we want to do our part to prepare them for the road ahead.

In our classes, we go one step at a time. Martial arts involves a great deal of repetition. Not only will you improve your motor function, but you’ll sharpen your mental focus. It takes great concentration to perform many of our techniques. That’s why martial artists are typically second to none when it comes to focus. In fact, you’ll start seeing a change in other areas of your life as you advance in training.

Hey, we all live hectic lives. Without a doubt, martial arts is a great way to blow off the steam of a long, rough day. At the same time, stress reduction has important mental and cardiovascular benefits. So not only will you get to reduce your stress—you’re going to be healthier because of it.

    This academy has not only been an amazing place for my family (myself, two sons, and one daughter) but … More they have also have become like family. The support on and off the mat is just unrivaled. All my children- who are very different- have thrived in their own ways. They have grown in physical and emotional strength and learned how to win and lose with honor and respect to themselves and opponents. If you are looking for something to shape you or your children inside and out, then look no further!

    My 7 year old granddaughter has been attending for close to 2 years and it's been by far the best … More growth experience that she could have ever had, not only physically but mentally. I highly recommend taekwondo for any little girl and I would definitely bring her here to Mr Bell and his team of highly trained instructors. They are fantastic!!! They are kind and compassionate but still manage to drive the kids hard enough to see that they are successful. 5 stars for Tiger Rock and Mr Bell!!!!

    I absolutely can not say enough about this school! My children have been attending for 5 years now. This … More is our second school, and right from the beginning, I was thoroughly impressed. At the time, one had just turned 8, and the other was 10. I loved the positive, constructive environment that echoed the same things we taught at home. Respect, positive attitude, growth, clean living, and earning your way.
    Fast forward to incoming sophomore in high school and incoming 8th grader, my kids are entrenched in it more than ever. Their heroes are the ones who not just talk about the right things to do but demonstrate these principles every day. I have no doubt a huge part of my children's success in every area of their lives. Then, of course, there is the actual physical conditioning and skills taught.
    If you're an adult looking to join, it's humbling at first, BUT you are treated with the highest respect in a completely empowering and positive environment. Increased flexibilty and stregth you did not know you lost….. try it, you might just surprise yourself!
    Lastly, there are plenty of opportunities for a student to learn and plenty of opportunities for the student to compete on both local and national levels.
    I don't just recommend Tiger Rock, I highly encourage you to try it!
