The classes they run
“As a matter of fact, the program and training impressed me enough that I am planning to sign up my daughter to learn under him when she starts kindergarten in four years.”
“I took TaeKwonDo as a teenager and stopped a few weeks before my black belt test and always regretted stopping.”
“I would recommend anyone looking to flip the script, learn self defense, self discipline and pushed themselves to achieve what you didn’t think was possible.”
“Tom and Kyle are fabulous instructors and everyone is super friendly and willing to help beginners learn.”

From the reviews
I didn’t realize how much I missed martial arts & needed it in my life until I joined Dragon Gym. It’s been a truly transformative experience for me thanks to Master Kyle & his lessons.
We are so happy and grateful that we found such a wonderful place like Dragon Gym for our children. My husband and I were very worried about finding the right place after moving here because our older son used to train back in our home country and was very attached to his coach, who was truly amazing.
I went to this DG location for several months and trained in Tae Kwon Do under Coach Kyle before I transferred to Muay Thai at a different DG location for reasons that had nothing to do with the program or Coach Kyle. Coach Kyle is very knowledgeable, patient, and an excellent trainer.
My boys (6&8 years old) have loved coming to their Dragon Gym (Phoenixville) classes since the fall. They are working hard, learning new skills, building strength, making new friends, and becoming more self-confident.
New to BJJ? Start at Dragon Gym Phoenixville - TKD, BJJ, Kids Martial Arts
Dragon Gym Phoenixville - TKD, BJJ, Kids Martial Arts comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first BJJ class at Dragon Gym Phoenixville - TKD, BJJ, Kids Martial Arts
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
