It is important to understand that what is right for one person is not necessarily right for another person. If somebody tells you that he or she attends the best taekwondo school on the planet, that does not mean it is the right studio for you.

Choosing a school of taekwondo must be done scientifically. You must study all of the elements of the school and then make a conscious decision about whether or not it is the right place for you to train.

Ten Questions

The most important thing you can do before you choose a school of taekwondo is to go and watch a class at the studio you are considering attending. As you do, ask yourself these questions:

1. Is the school teaching what I want to learn?

2. Are the classes taught in a manner that will be beneficial to me?

3. Does the senior instructor teach the class, or does he have his students teach the class?

4. Are the beginning students treated with respect?

5. Are the white belts (beginners) at the school left to learn the techniques completely on their own, or are there advanced students helping them on their way?
