My 14 year old son attends Cho's Academy and it has been an amazing experience for him. I love the versatility of classes where he can pick and choose different skills to acquire. Jacob and his team of instructors create an environment where physical and mental character thrive. Top notch organization. Highly, highly recommend.

Putting my son in Cho's academy is hands down one of the best decisions I've made as a parent. His increase of confidence and attention to discipline supersedes my expectations. There aren't enough stars to give.

This is an amazing studio, offering Yoga, TKD, Jui Jitzu, boot camps for the whole family. Jacob is a Master Class instructor and kids love him and want to learn from him. Our neighborhood Dojo is a Gem and a joy for the community.

Master Cho is amazing. My 7 yr old son absolutely love his classes and Summer program. He learned so much, from self discipline to respect. I really can't say enough about him!

My son started at Cho's Academy last year and it quickly became the first activity he truly became passionate about. Master Cho is an incredibly patient and dedicated teacher who instills discipline and respect amongst his student. Unlike many martial arts studio's Cho's Academy isn't a belt factory which was really important. As best I can tell students are recommended for testing when they are ready for testing, not just because the next test is up on the schedule. Belts are earned not bought. Who knows what the future holds, kids' interests wax and wane, but I hope my son continues to be invested in Tae Kwon Do and Cho's Academy is there for his journey.

Cho's Academy is a wonderful place for kids, where they thrive, build relationships and learn about life. We moved to Laguna about a year ago, and so happy that we joined the academy. Master Cho really cares about the kids, and is not only a teacher but is also a "mentor" to all of them.My son struggles with confidence, and I can see how he is growing not only mentally but also physically at the academy. It is a truly a gem for the kids!

Mr. Cho & Mr. Bukich are both incredible with kids. My 2 boys enjoy going to their lil panthers class which is fun and engaging while addressing other important aspects we are looking for like patience, respect, strength, flexibility, endurance, and overall coordination. The teachers genuinely love what they do which is felt in every class!

Cho's academy has been an extraordinary gift to our family. Our sons started in Mr. Cho's tkd classes about 10 years ago and learned a tremendous amount about the art, discipline and life skills that have benefitted them in all areas of life. Jason Eukich's and other instructors' jujitsu classes continue to be a source of strength, guidance and growth that have been lifelines this past year. Very grateful!

Our 3 children have been going to Cho's academy for 2+ years, their confidence, poise & level of strength have improved dramatically under Jacob Cho's teachings. We have continued with their classes online during these last few months because it has been our children's only form of a group sport. We love his classes!

This studio was perfect for good jujitsu instruction and training. Studio was very clean. Jacob is a great BJJ instructor helping with some unique setups for the triangle and arm bar that I had not seen before. I am form out of town, and wanted to find a good gym to train at while in Laguna. The vibe was very good and everyone was nice and helpful. I would highly recommend you stop in and try it out.

Jacob Cho’s TKD academy is so much more than a martial arts studio. It has become a community center for kids in Laguna Beach.

Jacob is a great instructor and has much to offer the kids. I have been pleased with Cho's Academy since before the pandemic.. And it has been a big relief to provide structure for my child during the lockdown. Cho's academy provides instruction via Zoom classes. It has been fulfilling for my son to have a sense of community, seeing his little friends, and the uplift of accomplishment as he's tested and graduated to a new belt. I highly recommend this highly for son or daughter who is interested to give it a try. Parents will feel good seeing their child evolve through strong commitment and responsibility
