Mountain Kim Martial Arts - Martial arts school in Fredericksburg - 570 Celebrate Virginia Pkwy, USA

I highly recommend Mt. Kim for any parent looking to improve their childś physical and social skills while increasing self-discipline and confidence. Classes are a great combination of fun and serious, challenging and rewarding. The greatest testimony to Mt. Kim (and Instructor Keith) is the way they meet each child (or adult) where they are and encourage them to improve and work toward their goals. This is not a ¨cookie cutter¨ program; each individual is recognized and cheered on as they work to improve their martial arts AND life skills. I also love their Mom Squad of parents that practice along side their kids. Everyone can participate at their own level in a welcoming, supportive atmosphere.

We have been going to Mountain Kim for 10 years and there is a reason! You'll never find a better martial arts program anywhere near here that comes close to this one. Not only do they teach martial arts, but they have instilled confidence, respect, discipline, taught life lessons and improved my kid's behaviors at home as well. There is so much more to this than martial arts and it has become our second home with many good friends. So If you want more than JUST a belt for your kids. THIS. IS .THE .PLACE. 10/5 stars!

I can’t recommend this school enough! The instructors are all wonderful with children and work hand in hand with the parents for the best interest of your child. They are also very knowledgeable in what they do. I’ve been involved in various martial arts for the past 15 years and instructors like Instructor Keith are some of the best I’ve ever come across. Whether you’re an adult looking to expand your martial arts knowledge and skill or a parent looking for something to instill confidence and life skills in your child, this is a place for you!

We absolutely love Mt. Kim! We attend the Rt. 17 school. The instructors and staff there are amazing. They’re all so knowledgeable and friendly, and really go out of their way to make families feel welcome and valued. Master Danny is one of the most (if not THE most) positive and energetic people I’ve ever encountered, and you can tell just by observing the classes that he truly loves working with the kids. The staff at our school are always coming up with new and innovative ways to grow, improve, and keep things current. Not only are the school and instructors top-notch, but the parent involvement and the feeling of family and community you get at our studio is wonderful as well. And lastly but most importantly, is the changes I’ve seen in my children. We’re a military family and move so much that my children have always struggled with self-esteem and feeling like they don’t really fit in. For the first time ever, that’s not the case here. It’s been such a blessing watching them blossom and grow in their confidence here, and I attribute it largely to the friends they’ve made through Mt. Kim and the life-skills they focus on in their training.

Our 9 year old has been taking TaeKwonDo at Mt. Kim for four years and loves it there. Master Danny and the other instructors make classes fun, but also ensure that the students are learning what they need to learn, at a pace that suits them, in order to progress through the various belt levels. They are dedicated to the success of every student. They offer private lessons if there is something in particular a student wants some extra time with and are very flexible about scheduling them. There are many different class times to suit any schedule, and they offer after-school care, with homework time and a lesson. Twice a year there is a big tournament with students from other Mt. Kim schools in the region, which provides an excellent opportunity to show off your skills. Although I would have been surprised to hear that a 9 year old had earned a black belt, I never felt as if my child was rushed through the curriculum. That belt was earned through hard work and dedication and the instructors and Master Danny helped make it easy. Second degree black is next!

We have been members of the Mt. Kim Martial Arts family since 2010. My girl is now a 2nd degree black belt and she is hoping to become a TKD instructor someday! We are grateful to Master Danny and all the instructors for making class fun and focusing on important life skills. The leadership training is wonderful and my daughter has gained a great deal of self confidence. I highly recommend Mt. Kim Martial Arts! Memberships make great Christmas presents!

My 5 year old started here this summer. To see where he started to where he is now is amazing. He looks forward to doing chores, to help his friends, and encourage his family members all because he enjoys their reward system. When he wears his uniform he loves explaining what his blue tips means, his blue star, his red stars and his goals stars. all things that where enhanced with MT Kim. We enjoy watching the Lil tigers do their best and achieve their goal. The patience and kindness the instructors show is encouraging. I would recommend you take the time and do a two weeks and see if it’s a right fit for you and your family. We did a two weeks and 4 months later we are still in love.

Mt. Kim is a great school. My grandson started when he was 5 years old in the Tiny Tigers program. He is now 8 and still going strong! He has gained confidence, learned self control, respect and discipline and so much more! The school offers after school programs, summer camp, day camp for some school closures, judo, leadership classes, just to name a few. I am very glad my grandson is a member of the Mt. Kim family.
