The Tiger Rock staff has always been so helpful! My kids LOVE their classes and it’s a great value for what you receive. Mrs. Tuck is amazing! My son James does lessons with Mr.Peterson and Mr. Peterson has the patience of a saint and my son loves him and talks about him at home constantly. I’d highly recommend Tiger Rock-north to anyone looking for something to keep their kids busy and to learn new skills. Thank you guys so much!

Tiger Rock Martial Arts is an AMAZING place to take your kids to!! The staff is incredibly patient and friendly!The Tiger Cubs class is a great way to introduce your children to martial arts! They do more than just teach martial arts, they teach values such as patience, good attitude, listening, obeying and courage so the kids are learning to be better during class and outside of the class. They have a different lesson every class period so the children dont get bored. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place to anyone looking to start Martial Arts!

Some may think, “he put 5 stars negligently”, but let me explain why I rate them so high. I was previously a student, an employee, and a sincere martial artist at this establishment (unfortunately I had to leave because my school is in an other state). I was affiliated with Tiger Rock Martial Arts, and more importantly with the Tuck Family for more than 14 years. I am a better man than I would have ever been if it wasn’t for this establishment. I was treated great and pushed to achieve my potential. Aaron and Mary Tuck are living examples of the important tenets of Taekwondo (honor, courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, courage, community, strength, humility, and knowledge) they not only taught me self-defense, but they taught me important life lessons. As a child I struggled to have self-control, especially in school. My enrollment in this martial arts CHANGED me and has helped me become a master in controlling myself physically and emotionally. All thanks to The Tucks and Tiger Rock Martial Arts, they have helped me become who I am, and I will honor them forever for that.

Exceptional at helping kids succeed. My 4-5yo has been doing great in class but gets extremely nervous for tests. I handed him off to them just shy of kicking and screaming and within two minutes he is in there doing as well as always for the test. Thanks TR!

I have been training at tiger rock for two years now, and finally achieved my first degree level one black belt in October and now testing for my level two in a few weeks. Tiger rock has made a big impact onto my life for the better. Tiger rock is a safe, kid friendly, supportive, and welcoming place to be. The second you walk in you will always be greeted by someone. I have made so many achievements, memories and life long friends and tiger rock because tiger rock has given me more confidence to go out and talk to my peers on the mats. I recommend tiger rock for anyone of any age because no matter what they will always be there to help you grow and make sure your having fun while doing it. Tiger rock is so amazing I wish I could give it 10 stars :D

An absolute professional martial arts program. My daughter has so much confidence and pride in learning Taekwondo here. The instructors are helpful when you have questions and patient with the children. I would definitely recommend Tiger Rock to my friends and family.

My daughter earned a yellow belt here and enjoyed it. However, after just paying our dues my daughter attended 1 class, wound up in the hospital and could no longer attend. The Tucks refused to give our money back due to extenuating circumstances and I believe that shows a lack of integrity and bad morals on their part and would highly not recommend going here.

Tiger Rock Martial Arts-North Springs is a great place for children to be involved in an activity and feel valued. From the very first class I knew this was the place for my daughter. The Tucks really care about your child and want them to be successful. Aaron and Mary Tuck have provided instructors for one-on-one training for my daughter and this is so amazing. The facility is always well-maintained and all of the instructors are professional and kind. But, as I stated before your childs successful experience is what matters most.

We love being a part of the Tiger Rock Family. We started with a choice to find a sport that also taught respect. We stayed because we committed to the journey. We continue because we love Tiger Rock! Taekwondo is not just for the kids, it is an amazing sport that the parents also can do. I love that I can do the same class as my kids on Saturday, and we can practice together during the week. My kids get so much confidence when they get to help their mother with a kick or form. Tiger Rock North is amazing. The owners and instructors treat you like family not a paycheck.

Tiger-Rock Martial Arts is a absolutely fantastic Taekwondo Academy. I’ve been a student for 4 years and I can say that I’ve loved every moment of training at this academy. The curriculum is challenging but rewarding and really encourages you to get better through constant training. All of the instructors including the owners are extremely friendly and helpful really inspiring me personally to do my very best and to achieve my goals at all my belt rank testings and tournaments. The community of students are fun and exciting through constantly pushing me to do my best and to help me with getting to become the very best martial artist I can be. I 100% recommend this academy to anyone who is remotely interested in starting martial arts because of the encouraging staff and instructor base who genuinely care about their students well being and their personal training.Everyone should feel free to come in and try out the academy if they are interested because they provide a free class for everyone to try out the program to see if it is something they would be interested in.

I have been training with the instructors at North Springs for a little under 3 years. The Tucks are phenomenal at teaching the Tiger Rock curriculum. The students and the instructors are welcoming, I still remember going into my first class being incredibly nervous, but the students and the instructors quickly made me feel like it was a second home. The discipline, technique, and strength you gain by participating in the R15E program is invigorating. Looking back at old videos of me and seeing my progression drives me each day. Theres always something new to learn, something you can tweak to be that much better, etc. Im not reviewing this academy as 5 stars because I have a personal attachment, Im reviewing this academy as 5 stars because it has earned it.

Tiger Rock (North Springs) has been great for my three boys. They really reinforce the principals we try to teach at home. Tiger Rock has been a part of our lives for about a year and half and will hopefully be for years to come. Mr and Mrs Tuck work incredibly hard to be able to take care of their kiddos while caring for all of ours, they are inspiring! Yes, the program, uniform and equipment come at a cost, but a cost that is not only worth every penny but much cheaper then any other martial arts we have looked into in the area! We highly recommend Tiger Rock for the skills and lessons they are teaching our children!

My child has been going here for roughly 3 weeks now and I already feel at home and my child loves it. I enjoy bringing my child here because the environment is awesome safe and the instructors are even better. I have experienced other gyms and it was not great there was always something like the price or other kids bullying other kids. There is none of that at tiger-rock and if a child does something the instructors correct it immediately. I would recommend you try it. Great coaches, friendly staff and great fellow trainees. I highly recommend coming to try a class!

The Tucks do a great job of teaching the kids respect. For my son, they have taught him a great deal of self-confidence. All aged kids work together and help each other learn. The work the instructors put in helps strengthen their bodies and minds. I love how the Tucks really get to know the kids and parents alike. They care so much about my son. We really enjoy each time we go to a lesson. It’s a lot of fun!!

We have known the Tucks for going on 13 years. Our teenager started when he was 5 years old and achieved his black belt. All students that have been a part of the Tiger Rock family, and have had the privilege of being taught by Aaron or Mary are outstanding individuals indeed. Their moral and ethical teachings have been demonstrated time and again and are reflected in those young minds that they have helped influence over the years. We thank you for the time and effort you have put into our boys and family.From a community standpoint, we have met some of our closest friends through Tiger Rock, and love the family friendly atmosphere. If you or your family are considering starting a martial art, this is the place to go!Thank you Aaron and Mary!

I am sure there will be some of you that will be mad at me, sorry. I have had a lot going on in my life these last couple of years and have changed and grown as a person. I have come to peace with myself and with the Tucks. I can tell you from my personal experience that you will not find a better Martial Arts School. Master Tuck is the most dedicated instructor to his students I have trained with. Not only that the Tucks will go above and beyond to help all students achieve their Martial Arts goals. Again I would like to thank the Tucks for the opportunity to train again.

Tiger Rock Martial Arts has been a home to me for the last 9yrs. Aaron and Mary Tuck spend countless hours helping each student recognize their potential and reach that potential. I have struggled with confidence during my entire journey but Master Tuck has never given up on me and has continued to believe in me as a person and martial artist. The Tucks have shaped me into the person I am today. Taekwondo is an amazing sport and you are always learning something new or there’s always something you can do to become better, but it teaches you just as much about life and yourself. I have met so many amazing people because of taekwondo. The team and family atmosphere is my favorite thing about Tiger Rock, we really all are a family and everyone encourages each other. I have so much loce for the people and for the sport. TRMA has given me so many opportunities. I can say that taekwondo has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. Words cannot express my gratitude and appreciation for what the Tucks have done for me!

I have known the Tucks for roughly 6 years, I have trained with them, volunteered with them, and watched how they work with their students and trainers ( I am a former student with no complaints). They have always worked extremely hard and focused on their students success. The challenges of a small business are many, and sometimes pure business decisions are misconstrued as being more personal than they are. Tiger rock is a fantastic school and the tucks are wonderful people that I am happy to have in my life. They work tirelessly to ensure all their students are getting the proper training by certified instructors who have gone through years of training to even be qualified to instruct. I am very happy all my children have had the privilege of being trained by the Tucks and their staff!

My 11 year old daughter started at tiger rock about a year ago. We were so impressed by what she was learning we decided to enroll our 9 year old daughter as well. Tiger Rock is such a great place. The environment there is wonderful, all the staff members are very friendly and willing to help all the time and at any time. Mr. and Mrs. Tuck have always been very up front and very honest with us about my girls and there journey to become a black belt. Everyone at Tiger Rock is very encouraging to all the students. Tiger Rock staff always has a very positive attitude. You cant go wrong with enrolling at any of the Tiger Rocks in the Springs. My husband and I are very pleased with the service there and our girls are extremely happy.

Although I have not been a student of the Tucks, I can attest to their character and devotion to Tiger Rock and its teachings. Upon visiting the schools over the years, I have witnessed a lot of growth, great morale, and a desire to teach confidence and humility.I have known Mr. Tuck for a lifetime and have seen him go from a young white belt to the Master that he is today. Im very proud to call the Tucks family.I wish Tiger Rock Martial Arts nothing but the best!!!

My granddaughter attends the Tiger Rock Martial Arts school on Union, previously off of Woodmen. The owners, instructors, and assistant instructors are incredibly nice people. In addition, they are excellent with their students and often go above and beyond to work with students who may require additional attention. The training they offer is excellent. As I am at their facility at least twice weekly, I have had the opportunity to observe many facets of the training and the interactions between instructors and students. I am impressed! I highly recommend Tiger Rock Martial Arts of the Pikes Peak Region and I would like to extend my thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Tuck!

I sent my daughter to Tiger Rock as a 9 year old shy young girl. Through her experience with Tiger Rock, my daughter developed into a confident, self-disciplined and, when necessary, assertive, young 16-year-old woman — all because of the encouragement that she had at Tiger Rock!The Tuck family and their instructors went out of their way to get to know my daughter and were accommodating to her very busy schedule. They knew that my daughter had a rigorous high school course schedule and other extra curricular activities and were willing to work with her.I would definitely recommend that other families bring their children to Tiger Rock.

This is truly a fantastic martial arts school and we could not have asked for anything more from the owners. The Tuck family has been amazing in creating a friendly and welcoming environment for kids and adults. They are extremely professional and they really care about the success and the development of our kids. Our son joined at age 6 and he has learned about discipline, respect, focus and commitment. He became a black belt at age 9 and he will continue to benefit from the instruction from the Tuck family for as long as we will live in the Springs. We strongly recommend this school to anyone who would like to learn martial arts in an exceptional environment.

I have had my children enrolled at different Tiger Rock academies over the past many years. Every Tiger Rock Academy and their instructors are extremely patient with children and are able to inspire them to be the best they could be physically & socially. When my children trained with Master Tuck and Mrs. Tuck I was very impressed with their professionalism and commitment to all of the students success. I highly recommend Tiger Rock to anyone who is interested in a high quality and professional martial arts experience for themselves or for their children

I am a military retiree and I was with Tiger Rock under Mr. Tucks East Springs studio for 18 months, getting just over half way to my black belt. If you are looking for a good school for you or your children, I would not recommend attending any schools associated with Mr. Tuck, and here is why.I never thought I would ever rate a one star until the events of 14 Jun 2018. On that day, I realized the true character of Mr. Tuck when he exhibited a complete lack of morals and integrity. On that day he fired our instructors at East Springs, telling them that they were failing the students, which is a complete lie. The main reason this is a lie is because of the astounding successes of the students in the school they taught. Every two months, students are tested by Mr. Tuck for their next belt rank, and our school had 6 straight testings of 100% of the students passing. He also stated that he was firing them because the instructors used inappropriate instructors. The main reason this is false is because the East Springs instructors for every class was a certified black coat, certified by Mr. Tuck himself! His claims and actions were simply excuses to justify changing the instructors at the East Springs, which he actually sold to new people. He provided no courtesy to these people that had dedicated 7 years of their lives to better the lives of so many people.His schools teach people that they should follow the tenets of Taekwondo, which being a veteran I can completely relate to and follow. I also expect everyone to be held to those same standards, and on that day he failed in every aspect. I cannot support an individual that has exhibited traits so horrible towards his own people, and caused so much pain on both his students and instructors, simply because he wanted to make money at the expense of others. This is not how a black belt, nor a master should act, per his own teachings...

Our whole family loves Tiger Rock! My teen has achieved his beginning level black belt and will continue on to higher levels; my 5th grader is working his way through the belts, and now I’m training in regular class as well as the strength and conditioning class. We’re getting strong and healthy together! The Tucks are fantastic teachers and leaders who genuinely care about all the students and emphasize character building along with Taekwondo training. The instructors are terrific people and the environment is encouraging and empowering. I highly recommend Tiger Rock for all ages. Check it out and see what a great training ground it can be for your family!

The Tucks run outstanding academies in the Pikes Peak region. I have known Mr. Tuck for over a decade. He is a talented martial artist, gifted and caring instructor and an ethical business owner. Additionally, he is backed by a large network of professionals who give him access to the latest in teaching techniques and sports science. We enthusiastically recommend students to train with him and Mrs. Tuck.

We choose this taekwondo school, after trying out several other places, because Tiger Rock has wonderful facilities, fantastic instructors, and a more affordable price than any other martial arts place we tried. We enrolled our young son in the tiger cub program because he had a ton of energy and some impulsivity & focus issues. We saw a positive change in his attitude in less than a month and we continue to be very pleased.We also had our son’s 6th birthday at Tiger Rock North and were extremely happy with how it went. It was more affordable than other options and all his friends had a blast. Our son loved breaking a real board and cutting his cake with an actual sword.Lastly, I had been bringing my son and thinking that I had always wished I had done martial arts growing up. So I signed up for the adult class as an overweight adult to get in shape. Not only are my classes hard work and fun, but I am able to go at my own speed when working on the skills. And it has not only helped my health, but also my confidence and self-defense skills.

Review №43

The owner dont have any empathy for his students or his leaders. He thinks he is over everyone including the parents. He doesnt talk to them. He thinks that taking a little of his time to talk to the families is a waste of his time. He mistreats his leadership, it doesnt matter how much good work, energy, how great his leadership does is not good enough for him. You never hear a good praise from him. Your kids dont learn nothing valuable from him because if you are one of those parents that complains about your kids failing their test, they will pass them to the next belt just because they dont want to loose your business. Not just that he has problems with elder taking classes. If you have an elder parent that is still active he makes you sign a waiver that you take full responsibility if anything happens. He is not fun of people with disabilities. He despises people with their own opinions. If you are his student he will want to suppress your opinion. He thinks that any other Martial Art Form like Karate is competition give me a break. He doesnt let you grow as a Martial artist, there is no weapons class, no demo team, no seminars, no recognition for State champion, District Champion, National Champion or Worlds Champion. Come on people open your eyes!

Ive been Mr. Tucks Taekwondo Instructor for over 20 years. He worked for me In Texas before opening his academies in Colorado. During the time he worked for me, I heard many positives from the students(including my own children) and parents training at my location. The only complaints I ever heard were from people who asked him to compromise his integrity, (dont try it :-))This Integrity is the number one reason for the success of his programs in the Colorado Springs area.Mr. and Mrs.Tuck are two of the best Instructors/students I have ever had the pleasure of training with. I would highly recommend any of their locations to anyone in the area!

My two boys have been training at this TaeKwonDo school for about two years now. My oldest boy has been diagnosed on the autistic spectrum and can be a challenge to help from time to time. The owners are the primary teachers there and are super caring and enthusiastic and all of their supporting instructors are as well. All of the instructors will go above and beyond to help by older boy even when he is being an extra challenge, by pulling him aside and helping him when he struggles. They do not just do this with my son; I see this type of high level service with all of the students and the with the people watching in the lobby. I Highly recommend Tiger Rock

My wife and all 4 girls have been training with the Tucks at the North Springs Tiger Rock school for over 2 years now. They learn a whole lot more than taekwondo; they learn respect, honesty and good sportsmanship. They have built more than a school, they have built a community of high character that my family is really proud to be part of. I can’t thank the Tucks or the entire community enough for what they’ve done for my family.

I was a student at Tiger Rock and I was injured due to the negligence of the instructor. I ended up breaking my arm and had to have surgery for a plate and screws. Aaron and Mary Tuck told their instructors not to admit any guilt. My doctor bills were $14,000. I contacted their insurance company who said their coverage doesn’t cover any student injuries. The adjuster told me in an email that it doesn’t matter how negligent the Tucks and Tiger Rock are, there is nothing I could do since I signed a waiver. She told me to get an attorney and sue Aaron and Mary Tuck. I contacted an attorney who said the waiver would never stand in court and to take legal action against the Tucks. I’m so disappointed that these people are all about the money and could care less about their students.

I first signed my four year old. son up for Taekwondo at Tiger Rock because he was extremely energy had gotten kicked out of one preschool program (for climbing on the book shelve multiple times and running away) and no matter what I did he was full of energy. And this quickly because I family commitment.While it’s early on and there still more work I have seen such an improvement in my son, Toby. And I am very grateful for Ms. Tuck, Master Tuck… Mr. Peterson and Mr. Tocci for not giving up on Tobias and helping him improve.On the opposite side is my daughter, who struggled a lot with her self-confidence and doubting her abilities. I see a lot of improvement there as well. It’s amazing how two polar opposite children can both benefit so while from this program and they really do care about their students.There plenty of reasons to commit to Taekwondo and Tiger Rock, no matter who you are.

I started TKD with the Tucks after my mom did a lot of research for not only great instruction but also great owners/instructors. I have learning focus and ADD issues and I needed to find an activity to help with them. Master and Mrs. Tuck were patient to help me learn. I earned my black belt over 3 1/2 years only because they helped me to stay on track with my goals and not give up. Their help in TKD helped me with school work too. They didn’t just see me as another student but a person and showed they cared every class!

Tae Kwon Do and Tiger Rock have been so good for my son. He has a form of muscular dystrophy and finds competitive sports demoralizing. But with Tae Kwon Do, he is only really in competition with himself and he enjoys achieving higher skill levels and belt ranks. The Tucks offer him just the right balance of challenge and support to help him be the best he can be. He just received hi black belt and he is so proud! I highly recommend Tiger Rock.

I didnt feel safe with this taekwondo. It was very toxic and unsafe. I was having to spar with white and yellow belts while pregnant that didnt know how to hold back.

Very disappointed in this martial art school. We signed up because we thought it was a family oriented and would have fun learning and meeting new people. This was not the case we were never greeted or aknowledged by the Tucks, which I thought was rude and unprofessional, But the were sure quick to bring up charges from almost two 2 years ago which I knew we paid. They are money hungry!!! When it came down to testing it didnt matter in their eyes if we were ready or not it was only about us paying and doing testing without being prepared. Also it seemed like there was always something we needed to buy because it added to curriculum but we hardly used it. Im also very upset with master tuck for last testing, when he tried to fail me knowing and seeing that my form was correct! Thankfully he was out voted and I received my rank! THANKS FOR NOTHING!!!!!

We were with Tiger Rock since my son was 3 but decided to leave after the way a situation was handeled at my son’s school. After 7 years, I lost all confidence in their integrity and realized they can’t even follow the Tenants I was allowing them to teach my child. They have no loyalty and could care less about their families. My son didn’t attend for 2 months and not one phone call to see if we were ok but they sure kept debiting my account. Sincerely disappointed after being with them for over 7 years.

I took my son to Tiger Rock (he is 3 1/2) to see if it was something he would be interested in. The staff was very courteous, welcoming and patient with him and I was very impressed with the friendly atmosphere.

I love Tiger Rock! The academy has amazing instructors! I only have positive comments on Tiger Rock Martial Arts. I completely recommend Tiger Rock for anybody. The Tucks have inspired me and helped me so much on my journey! I am absolutely dedicated to this sport and could not be happier with my choice to join Tiger Rocks team. I ALWAYS feel welcomed. I have become obsessed with taekwondo, and I practice all the time! I go to every class I can, for I always learn something new. I have just earned my red jacket, and am so happy that I have the opportunity to help others in their journey. Also, XP, and enthusiasts training are awesome! Tiger Rock has helped me find my confidence, and I plan to continue learning taekwondo for as long as I can!!

My husband had studied Tae Kwon Do as a child, and started doing it again shortly before we met. The Tucks were positive and encouraging, and he found a home there that helped him deal with lifes stresses in a healthy way. It moved well beyond stress relief and became something that brought him a great deal of joy.When we met, I enrolled, as well. So did our children, who were very young at the time. The four of us did this as a family for years. Eventually, other interests took myself and the children away from the school, but not without having learned both skills that inspired confidence in many realms of life.My husband continued to train and eventually became an instructor. Eventually, an unrelated injury resulted in the inability for him to continue. However, he still looks at those years as some where he enjoyed life the most, thanks to the Tucks. Mr. Tuck inspired him to be better every day, engaged him, and pushed him while building him up. Even after he had to leave, Mr. Tuck regularly checks in with him, inquires as to his health, and ensures he knows he is welcome and wanted.If you are an adult looking for a physical activity or have a child youd like to see learn discipline, honesty, and values, I cant recommend Tiger Rock enough!

I look back sometimes at how my son was struggling with bullies, and the only way to help him was to sign him up for Taekwondo classes. I wanted him to be able to defend himself if something were to happen. From the moment I met Mr. Tuck I knew it was a place for my son to learn and grow. He answered all my questions, and he knew exactly what I needed. Very professional and understanding. My son has gained so much from Taekwondo such as : discipline, physical & mental training, concentration and memory, respect and the list goes on which he will take with him into adult life. I have seen a huge difference in his confidence and self esteem. Tiger Rock is part of our family, and if we have any questions or concerns they are always there to help!

I am obsessed with TigerRock me and my sister absolutely enjoy learning new things!!! Even my best friend that is one belt higher then me. I’ve met new friend and I always feel welcomed at tiger rock. I also love the other classes they have! XP, leaders in training and for adults strength and conditioning. I love XP learning new weapons is a lot of fun! And leaders in training is fun too! Helping kids learn new things is amazing! I love tiger rock so much i will be walking and all the sudden i will be kicking the air. I’m always wanting new tige rock things or taekwondo shirts online. Tiger Rock has really changed my life I absolutely recommend tiger rock for anyone!!! And I wouldn’t recommend changing anything at tigerrock!!! It’s amazing either way!!!i decided to edit this review after about 5 or 6 months ago making this review. when i made my old review i was about a level 2 or 3 green belt.Now im a level 1 brown belt and finished the world tournament. i still really love tiger rock more than anything my parents try so heard to encourage me to do more sports like volleyball or finish basketball... but i say no because i dont want ti to interfear with my martial arts.

Whenever we are in the Springs we take the kids to the Tiger Rock Schools, because the instructors and owners welcome TR students from around the country to fully participate in classes. Everyone is so nice and professional.

I love this place and the Tucks especially! I started my daughter as a Tiger Cub when she was 6 (she just turned 14). She trained through the Cub program and learned so much that helped her with her sensory integration disorder, and she continued until she made junior black belt, at which time she decided to pursue volleyball. I also trained with the Tucks, eventually earning my black belt. I worked with them for years as a certified trainer and loved every minute of it. I regretted when I had to stop training four years ago due to my health, but hope to return when I’ve finally gotten my health fixed.Master Tuck’s dedication is such that even when he was undergoing multiple knee surgeries, he was still on the mat lending his expertise to the classes. He doesn’t let personal, family, or medical issues interfere with how dedicated he is to instructing his students of all ages.Mrs, Tuck is truly gifted at working with the youngest of taekwondo students. Her warmth and caring helps even the shyest and most reserved of children and youth find their strengths.The Tucks are also involved in the community, and in the past have led sessions at Academy International Elementary School’s international day. They also helped teach the entire Pine Creek High School marching band the Seed Form to incorporate in one of their shows to great success.Finally, the Tucks and many of their trainers continue to be my friends in Facebook and in some cases in real life. I became part of their family, and though they no longer “get my money,” they still care.I’ve been disheartened by the recent negative comments I’ve seen posted here over the past two weeks. Those of you looking for a Tkd school should go into the studio for yourselves and meet the Tucks for yourselves before making a decision. After all, it’s far easier for trolls with a vendetta to launch a smear comparing with multiple accounts than it is for people who are proud and happy to be affiliated with this organization and trainer to remember to post how happy they are. I only wish I had posted sooner.

Ive known the Tucks for 7 years now and I highly recommend kids and adults to come to this TKD center! I called around a good bit to find the best instruction for my then 2nd grader to help him be active and to help him focus better in school. Getting the best instruction was really important, but I also couldnt afford the many high monthly fees of many studios I called. Springs TKD has been the best of a personal small business, GREAT instruction and value! My son earned his black belt and the discipline learned in TKD helped him to focus in home and school. I highly recommend giving yourself or your kids the opportunity to be part of a great TKD center!

My Daughter started training here about 1 year ago and is now a Green Belt! :-) I had zero knowledge about Martial Arts at the time and my little girl came home from school one day talking about TIGER ROCK. She kept saying Tiger Rock...Mr. Aaron Tuck and would not stop talking about him. Mr. Aaron Tuck had come to her school and taught her a special seminar that day. :-)Anyway, I was skeptical of martial arts at the time and humblily had zero knowledge of what it was all about except my little lady was extremely interested in being a ninja! So, I contacted them and set-up a Test Drive of their Academy. But me being careful I also set up several other trial classes at other martial arts dojos. We showed up at Tiger Rock and my little lady was enamored once again. We still attended the other places so I could do my checking. She was very shy with the other places and they would not give me any info on their program until I gave them money$$$$. Tiger Rock let me take a free and then they were honest about the prices after, which are not free of course, but VERY fair for what they give us! Cheaper than the other guys!!!From a mothers viewpoint Tiger Rock is the BEST by far. The prices were lower than any other reputable facility. I was able to watch her train if I wanted; not every place I took her let me watch her take class.The classes themselves are by far better than the other places we tried. If I had the time she could takes classes 5+ times each week at Tiger Rock...and the other guys would only let her attend 2 times each week or I had to pay an arm & a leg if she was to go more often.We attend the North Springs location primarily and take classes with Mary & Aaron Tuck. Aaron Tuck is the Owner and senior Instructor and has been in Martial Arts for almost 30 years, which is awesome because he couldnt be more than 37+ years old himself. He is caring, patient, and knows his stuff! The way he teaches is truthfully astounding! His other instructors are very talented as well and she enjoys all of their lessons very much!!!Cannot recommend them more highly and WOULD NOT recommend any other place in town!IF I could ever get my schedule in order I would join too. Yes, they have classes for Adults in TKD and Fitness. Maybe someday soon I will join too

Tiger rock and the tucks are the most amazing. when i moved here about 2 years ago i was not a very confident person. i was very shy and i didnt know a lot of people or feel comfortable at all. but going to taekwondo was the best thing i did when i got here. the north springs has been like a family. they are welcoming and always there to help. ive learned many great things. im more comfortable doing things because i know how to defend myself. and the Tucks are amazing people. ive known them for 2 years but its been great getting to know them more.

My grandson went here and I was disappointed with the time taken with the little ones. It appears that they only pay attention to their favorites. When my son went to pull him from the program after just a couple of weeks he was made to pay an additional 2 months before they could quit. Very disappointing
