Took my grandson to class. I love this new location. Its a smaller class which gives more teacher/student time. Miss Carol takes advantage of this. With her knowledge and experience, it can only improve FBT.

I cannot sing the praises of this place enough. The learning is top notch because the instructors know what they’re doing, the classes are endless fun with activities to keep the kids engaged and active, and everyone there is so kind and welcoming you always feel like family. I Love Fort Bend Taekwondo!

Its a great school. Ms. Chapman is a great instructor. She encourages and pushes the students to give and do their best. She also does great things for the community. Its has been a pleasure watching my son through his TaeKwondo experience. It has built up his confidence. He enjoys it and he has met some great friends along his journey.

My son has been a student here for a year now and he loves it, his dedication to learning his form amazes me. Mrs. Carol Chapman is the best as well as all the student instructors. It’s been a pleasure to watch my son grow to be more confident in himself and excited to learn.

My sons and I love learning Taekwondo here! It’s a fun workout for me and it is really helping my boys to learn self-control and perseverance. Ms Chapman really cares about how the kids are improving both inside and outside of class!

This place is awesome. I know that seems like a very generic thing to state, but it is true. We have both of our kids enrolled and we have been nothing but thrilled with how our kids are growing with the influence of Mrs. Chapman and her instructors. Discipline, earned pride, determination, and martial arts all rolled into one. The kids are learning in a fun and encouraging environment while also being held up to a high standard of responsibility for their own actions with regard to behavior and progression through the belt ranks.I honestly wish I could have had this for myself when I was their age.

My kids love this school. They are excited about increasing in rank. My son has ADHD and Taekwondo was recommended. Mrs. Chapman is great with him, she is very understanding but stern at the same time. She knows how to handle him and he listens and respects her. Great school!

My son gained so much confidence, and Carol Chapman, has really taken her time in teaching. We have been going to over 3 years now, and it is easily the best thing that my son has very wanted to do.. Learning Self-control, and Integrity are two of the schools tenets that my son has truly learned to embrace while at Taekwondo...

We have been a part of the Fort Bend TaeKwonDo family for four years now. Coach Chapman and her instructors are excellent. Our son has developed self-confidence, perseverance, and made good friends over the years. The environment is always super supportive, which is very important for our children to grow and succeed.

You get more than just Taekwondo! The instructors are knowledgeable, caring and friendly! My daughter has been going to this school for over a year and I can see the physical and mental change. I would recommend if your child is being bullied, a low self-esteem, or could use a positive force in their life, this is the school to check out!

Our family is extremely happy with the training classes here. They grow our kids physically and spiritually. They do not only develop physical skills for the kids but also develop your kids focus, respect, self control and well being. My kids love it and therefore I love it! Trainers are exceptional, they take the time to motivate your kid, inspire them and correct them so that they can continuously improve their skills. All the kids that come here look happy and self motivated.

Review №16

My boys love going to Fort Ben Taekwondo and are always excited to go to their classes. It has a family atmosphere and Ms. Carol the owner/head instructor knows all the students individually. My older son wanted me to quote him saying Taekwondo is a sport, happiness is a feeling but they merge together perfectly.Both tell me that its not just about the physical exercise, they also love that they feel they can protect themselves and that the tenets help them in all areas of life. They tell me they feel stronger physically but also mentally. My older son even told me about a story where a younger boy was really annoying him and he told him its self control thats stopping me from punching you. Ive noticed my younger son being a lot more responsible showing more self control as well. It really makes me happy to see that my boys get the same moral code outside of the home to reinforce what we are trying to instill in our boys. Even schools dont seem to do this anymore.We are honestly very happy we found Fort Bend Taekwondo. My boys clearly love it and as parents we are thrilled with a place that feels very personal and cozy to us as a family while still showing extreme professionalism and giving our children a great education both in taekwondo as a sport and in the character development that goes with it. Would blindly and very highly recommend it!

Our eleven-year-old daughter has been a student at Fort Bend Taekwondo for nearly half of her young life. Over the course of that time, she has become stronger both physically and mentally, but we have been most impressed by the growth she has experienced in her character. This strength of character is a direct result of the tenets that are taught at the school and encouraged in everyday life as well. Programs such as regional and national tournaments, anti-bullying and board-breaking clinics, and especially the fantastic A-team for student instructors has strengthened her self-confidence and leadership skills and also developed her character and social skills with other students. But just as importantly, she is having FUN. We are so excited about the upcoming move to a larger space and the continued growth and success of the school. Fort Bend Taekwondo is enthusiastically recommended!

Ft.Bend Taekwondo has been such a positive experience for my granddaughter! There is a real feeling of family when you come here. I have watched my granddaughter grow as she sets goals and then meets them. Carol Chapman is a fantastic instructor with a team that truly cares about their all students ! So happy we found FB TKD!

I highly recommend Fort Bend Taekwondo. It offers an outstanding program that teaches more than just Taekwondo; both my children have received quality instruction. The eldest has really matured and become much more self confident, my younger child has also matured and started to show more self-control. Both have learned some amazing skills and I am proud of their progress.Being part of Fort Bend Taekwondo is being part of a family. Carol Chapman and the senior staff are genuinely super friendly and caring. They know all the children and families, greet you by name. Carol is absolutely awesome with the students; she knows exactly how to bring out the best in them and how to deal with them regardless of ability, temperament or needs. It isn’t “easy” the kids are expected to work hard to earn their achievements; this is done through expert support, encouragement, nurturing and tutelage. The end result is your child is super proud of themselves learning skills in a fun way with a great work out.

Our daughter has been taking classes at Fort Bend TaeKwonDo for almost 5 years. The benefits for her have been tremendous. She has learned discipline, perseverance, failure is a part of progress, and that learning and improving take time. She applies those lessons to others aspects of life and has more patience and understanding that goals take time and effort.

You want to go here! There is a reason this place is always hopping - Mrs. Chapman is the best instructor in the area. If you want authentic martial arts training, or just wanting to get fit, look no further.

My son has been going here for at least 4 years. Its such a dynamic school Mrs Chapman has going - the kids are challenged and grow in such a well-rounded way. Its more than just TaeKwonDo. Everyone who works here (and I love seeing the student instructors! Such visible evidence of the great ethic and effects of this place) is approachable and so hardworking. Im excited to see how else Fort Bend TKD will teach and equip my child.

We’ve been part of FB TaeKwondo for about a year. We’ve seen a great improvement in our daughters self confidence and self esteem. Mrs. Chapman and the instructors truly care about making student the best version of themselves. Mrs. Chapman is an engaged listener and an effective communicator.

Review №26

Not only is this a great school where the instructors truly care about helping the students grow, they are also highly involved in their national organization. If you arent familiar with martial arts let me tell you that it is crucial to find a school that is part of a national organization. The quality and degree of professionalism it offers is unparalleled.

Its been close to a year that weve been with Mrs. Carol at Fort Bend Taekwondo.Mrs Carol is a wonderful instructor, that makes the classes fun but also teaches the kids discipline. I recommend coming here, its a wonderful after school activity for our children to invest their time and it teaches self control, and manners while having FUN!

Our son age 6 and daughter age 4 have been attending classes at Fort Bend TKD for over a year. This is a WONDERFUL school and a great atmosphere for children. Our son had is birthday there last year, and is planning on having it again this year! He talks about getting his black belt and how he wants to open his on Karate Place! We love it and you will too! Check it out!

Our kids have only been working with the amazing staff at Fort Bend Tae Kwon Do for two months. With each class, I am increasingly impressed with the supportive environment that is created by this group. Our children have each shown increased confidence and motivation. They look forward to going to class and continue practicing on their own when they get home. The structure and ability to achieve a new goal each week helps them stay focused. This ability to set a goal and work to achieve it is an invaluable life lesson. This is a direct reflection of the dedication, consistency, and positivity of the staff.

Fort Bend Taekwondo has been a great experience for us so far! Ive watched my child, that struggled with behavior issues in the beginning, learn to exhibit more self control and focus. She loves Ms. Carol, and Im just so grateful that weve found a place where the intructor cares so much. Carol works alongside parents and teachers to ensure her students are practicing their best behavior at all times. She expects hard work!

Learning how to corporate the TaeKwonDo tenets into my daily life is the highlight of my TaeKwonDo experience. Especially self control, which is the most important of them all. My favorite life lesson that TaeKwonDo taught me is to learn from my failure. My journey at fort Bend TaeKwonDo was a mixture of fun and athletic. I’m glad I am apart of the great family of Fort Bend TaeKwonDo.

Review №42

My son started with another DoJo that was very,very old school, and not fun at all. After 5 classes he was spending more time in time out than he was learning his forms. He then just didnt want to go and would cry when we went to class. I did some research and sat in on several schools classes before we joined Fort Bend Taekwondo. He has excelled! Hes now a Senior Orange Belt and the youngest member of the A-Team instructors. Over the Christmas Holidays he took 5 private Bo lessons and was able to learn his first Bo form. Hes come out of his shell, has more self-confidence and it has helped with his self-control and focus issues. I cant say enough good things about the School and owner Carol Anatrella!

My daughters experience with Taekwondo has been so much deeper than learning Taekwondo itself. Ms. Chapmans program has provided lessons in endurance, responsibility, courage and instructing others. I cannot say enough about the growth I have seen in my daughter in all of these areas. I highly recommend Taekwondo but more specifically recommend the Fort Bend Taekwondo program.

After visiting several locations for TKD training, this has proved to be such a great choice for my family...the patient instruction and fun workouts make you want to come to class, motivating you to continue. Its really helped my son in many ways, giving him more confidence and discipline than ever. Great for all ages, including adults like me! Thank you, Fort Bend TKD!

We have two boys at Ft Bend Taekwondo with Coach Carol currently and we all love it there. This is a very family oriented environment from the top down for both the children and the parents. Not only does Coach Carol teach Taekwondo but she teaches the students life lessons and helps them follow and live by the Taekwondo Tenets. our boys have been students for around three years now. It is amazing to see how much they have grown as young men because of Coach Carol and her coaching staff.Ft Bend Taekwondo is also not just about Taekwondo. Coach Carol is always looking for different events to put on or attend as a school for the students AND parents to grow in all ways in their lives.We love this school, Coach Carol and all her supporting staff and always recommend Ft Bend Taekwondo to anyone and everyone.

Review №46

My boys love Fort Bend Taekwondo and we have seen quite a change in my 8 yr old. He has always been a perfectionist and also very sensitive.When he encountered challenging situations or faced any type of adversity, he would tend to cry and want to go off by himself. Over the last few months since we joined FB Taekwondo, I have observed him react with more self control and to calmly communicate his frustrations when things arent going his way. I was not expecting to see a change so soon. We are very impressed with Carol and the staff and highly recommend FB Taekwondo!

Review №47

Fort Bend Taekwondo has be the catalyst for setting up my son for success in life. He set his first major goal here at age 10. He wanted to be a black belt. While this seemed like something way in the future compared to his short 10 years, the goal is now in sight as he just received his first degree probationary black belt at age 12. However, its what hes learned along the way that has kept him pursuing this goal and it has seeped into all aspects of his life. Carol Chapman and the Fort Bend Taekwondo staff have been encouraging, supportive, yet expectant. They got to know my son and his strengths, weaknesses, and spirit. They have pushed him exactly when he needs it, taught him to persevere, and to never ever give up. He also has been taught about using self control, having integrity, and displaying respect. All of this is displayed in Taekwondo class and tournaments, but also at home, school, and pretty much everywhere we go. He may not always handle every situation right, but he will always reference self control, respect, or never giving up when he discusses how he could have acted differently. He has also learned about failure and learning from it. That is life. If we cant teach kids that its ok to fail, how to learn from it, and to keep going and try again then what kind of adult are we creating? I will be forever grateful we found Fort Bend Taekwondo. They truly care about making students the best version of themselves possible, incorporating their families into the process, all while having FUN!

I was skeptical at first in fear my kiddo would think it was ok to karate chop his friends! Carol Chapman took her time to talk to me about the benefits of Teakwondo in a childs life. The patience and discipline that has been taught to our son has proven to us that we must be in taekwondo! The entire team is so fantastic! Really exceptional role models for our kiddo! Our son really is learning a lot and truly enjoying it along the way! His confidence is being built by their exceptional teaching skills & all his hard work! They are our friends not just instructors! Cant believed we almost past up on this life altering opportunity! 😊

Our reality post Harvey dictated that we move away from FortBend TaeKwonDo, and triggered a search for nearby alternatives for my son to continue his TaeKwonDo endeavor. Little did we know how great we have it as FBTKD, primarily because we never had to look elsewhere before. With an open mind, we visited many schools in the houston area, attended classes, and signed up for trial periods but couldn’t find a school that offered the same mix of learning and fun in a nourishing, safe, and disciplined environment. Student, staff, parent and families are among the finest we’ve ever been around. Our family has awarded FBTKD with the Best TaeKwonDo School in the Houston area and we’re confident if such award existed FBTKD will win it par none. Having the best sometimes comes with a price, and we are glad that a long commute is all we have to take on to be part of such a great and friendly place.

My daughter has been at FB TKD for 2.5 years now and the changes I have seen in her makes this not only a great sport for fitness and self defense but the focus on perseverance and self discipline has been instrumental for my daughter in so many life lessons. She has learned to push through when things dont go the way you want, the reward of putting the time and focus into something youre going for, how to be a leader and her level of respect, even towards me, has increased significantly. I highly recommend this sport and this school, in particular.

I personaly think that this is a great school .most of the kids who go here at first dont want to go but then they end up having the most fun in a long time . Usually when i have a bad day i always have something to cheer me up . I reccomebd tht whoever goes here, and i mean this ,they can walk out a week later with theyre yellow belt (but teakwondo america doesnt allow them ) so any one looking to learn martial arts they could learn and be ready to test in a WEEK ! My point is that there school is better then any else-Robby S.

I have gone to taekwondo here for about four years, almost five years as of September. I used to be very anti-social and shy but over the course of four years I have overcome that and have learned many more skills that will surely help me in life. Not only does taekwondo benefit me mentally it benefits me physically. Even though the work outs are tiring and test my physical state I know it benefits me. If I hadnt gone to fort bend taekwondo I probably would have given up after my first try, or even before I could try but now, instead I know how important it is to persevere. I didnt only learn how to persevere either, I learned how to have self control, courtesy, integrity, and indomitable spirit as well. Taekwondo has overall made me a better person physically, mentally, and emotionally.-Marcus On

From the Student: RobbyHi, i am currently a purple belt at Fort Bend TKD and i LOOOOOOOVEE it. It has inspired me to make my own school and teach. Earlier last year i was a senior orange belt and i showed self control and courtesy , so one day Mrs.Anatrela [now Mrs. Chapman]asked me if i wanted to be an Ateam member. My answer to her was YES. As a white belt my experience was ok untill my second class,i learned every thing , advanced , and repeated the process through belts . When i am having a bad day i enjoy coming there to enjoy the students and teach them and make sure THEIR experience is a great one . As instructors we have to work extra hard on teaching , our forms, and most of all show self control to Mrs.Anatrella and to the school . I think anyone who spends a week at the dojo and learns the form can be a stellar student and a rising star .From the parent: DadI cant recommend Fort Bend Taekwondo enough. Not only is it a motivational and safe social environment for my child; the discipline and accountability from martial arts is reflected in his 4th grade class room as well. This year he has been accepted in to the National Elementary Honor Society and is consistently a top academic performer in his class. My son is motivated, goal orientated and more respectful of his teachers and fellow students than he has ever been. I am very grateful for the leadership and discipline provided by Mrs. Chapman and the staff of Fort Bend Taekwondo.

I currently have 2 children enrolled at FB TKD, one who has been attending for over 3 years now. I cannot say enough about how beneficial Ms. Anatrellas method of teaching and encouragement has been for my kids. If you are looking for something that will teach your kids the benefits of hard work, perserverance, and self control, look no farther. These are just a few of the day-to-day tenets that FB TKD teaches and encourages all students to have.
