My family and I have been training here for almost 10 years now. My eldest daughter and I are now 3rd degree black belts and my younger daughter should be a junior black belt soon. As you can guess, we all highly recommend this school. Master Lee has an amazing way with kids, even shy or differently abled ones, and I have seen so many children become confident and strong young adults through this program. Master Oh, who joined the studio later, is also an excellent instructor, both with children and adults. I never imagined that, at my age, I would become a martial artist, but it is an excellent way to keep up my fitness and strength as I age. Great for anyone, any skill level, age or ability!

Sunrise has done well with my young son instilling a strong value system based on courtesy, respect, integrity, self control and commitment to life/self improvement achievable through having goals/ planning and perseverance.
Master Lee and Master Oh have not only mastered the art of Taekwondo but moreover the understanding of people, family, and community which makes the ultimate experience here for me and my son so valuable.
I highly recommend Sunrise for kids and adults alike seeking to learn, practice and understand the vast rewards Taekwondo has to offer each of us.

This is the best martial arts school that serves the portland area!
Place is fantastic and the staff is outstanding. Very professional and high quality instruction. Master Lee and all the other wonderful instructors work hard to instill focus and respect in the kids, but also to keep it fun so everyone wants to keep coming back. I really love this place and always look forward going to each class!

Beware of this TaeKwonDo gym, the owner-Master Lee Won is very good in pressuring possible members. He's not upfront at all on the cost of their classes. He told us that the monthly charges will be $160 but when he actually had the credit card he then said that it would be $420. On top of that I had to cancel prior to my son being able to attend the classes because of a family emergency that I had to attend to out of state and at first he was very understanding and said that no further charges will be put on the credit card and that he will continue to work with the "company" to get the $420 and this was back in May 2018. It is now September 2018 and still no refund. Watch out with this sketchy company. I would not recommend this business to anyone and additionally it is very hard to understand the instructors when they're teaching. (sat down and waited to talk to Master Lee plenty of times)

We had been calling and stopping by as told by Sunrise Tae Kwondo so we could get a refund for the classes that was never attended, the unopened package of uniform was returned. We cancelled prior to even attending the class and even did an address change per their instructions to get a refund. It's been 3 months now and still no refund.

We love master Lee, master Oh, and master Evan!! They are all super good with kids and know how to get their attention. They are very playful yet there is discipline when necessary. They make the kids understand the negative situation and make it into a positive situation. My son was very shy, and now has learned to be very confident. He learned not to cry all the time and will speak out when he needs to. The facility is very clean and big. We love this place!

But after he started to train this place, he become outgoing person, and he always talks to me, "I want to go Taekwondo dad" trusts this place, you will not regret to choose this place. Thanks you so much!:)

Really disappointing experience. The program is not always age appropriate making kids feel terrible and like they did something wrong when they haven't. Really hurts their self esteem and desire to work hard.
Plus a very difficult experience being told I'd get a refund, then not getting a call back, then having to argue over the refund (most of the refund was due to charges that shouldn't have even happened) and then having to wait 20 minutes past the agreed time in order to get the refund.
Just disappointing.
Update a few days later:
Even though we are no longer at this place, THEY JUST CHARGED MY BANK ACCOUNT FOR ANOTHER MONTH! And the owner refuses to reverse it, saying I need to call the billiing company but REFUSED TO GIVE ME THE CONTACT INFORMATION for the billing company!! Straight up theft at this point.
DON'T BRING YOUR KIDS OR YOUR WALLET HERE
In response to the owners comment below:
I already told you this is not about whether my kid gets an award or not, I don't care if he got it or not. It's how he was treated when he didn't get it. He was treated like he did something bad and shamed in front of a room full of people after watching ten other kids get an award for the same event. You don't see the problem, fine. I don't care anymore.
Please stop stealing money from my bank account.

Sunrise TaeKwon do taught me a lot about Korean martial arts. I first learned about how to count to 10 in Korean. Then we learn stretches, forms, and 9 step movement technique. There were many other people training in the classroom. Some days only a few people, which help me focus in more. You are provided with a free Gi and two weeks for a trial period to see if you like it or not. Then you make the commitment to go and I did, and it was well worth it. I learned new kicks such as the x kick and spinning back kicks. We also get to break boards which is really fun in the test. I also really like how the teachers work with you one on one, you get a up close personal interaction with them. There are also sparring classes I took on Saturdays, and I would highly recommend buying your own gear it is well worth it. I also went to one of the tourtaments and it was amazing to see the other schools perform and to see sunrise to an excellent job as well. Thank you very much for teaching. It has been a wonderful experience!

Sunrise Taekwondo is great me and my children loved it! We were really shy and scared at first with the fierceness and masculinity of the teachers but do not be intimdated! they are very kind, friendly, generous, and patient with the students. WE were blessed to be part of the school and we are wanting to continue going especially after seeing the expansion and remodeling of the studio! It has gotten so much bigger and better, I can't wait til the renovations are finished and we can start back up again for the upcoming year!

Hello everybody! I just want you to know if there is anybody I would reccomend as a Teacher it would be Master Lee and Master Ooh. They have done an excellent job at explaining an being part of my growth and development. I learned a lot of moves and practiced a lot even at home. I was excited to be part of the class everytime and the energy was always very high and the teachers are always encouraging and enthuiastic. I came here to for self defense and to increase my confidance. I gained those skills, even when I had many challenges and difficulties and wanted to stop, master Lee told me how great I was as a student and could potentially become a teacher. I felt proud, and knew I had to overcome some hurtacles and obstacles in my way. I will say too have fun and don't get to stressed about everything. Also be serious too when it is the time for it. Thank you guys for the experience I will be seeing you again soon!

Great instructors and wonderful gym. We really loved the class and I highly recommend it. Master Lee was supposed to call me back about a partial refund because I wasn't able to participate for more than 1 class because of a knee injury but we paid for the 2 week trial. It is disappointing I never heard back from him. Other than that, very happy the one class we were able to attend.

All of my family had been with Sunrise for many years. Both Master Lee and Master Oh are instrumental in the development of the kids and young teens. They teach them values that everyone benefits from. They are fun loving and genuinely care about their students.
If you're looking for a studio for your kids or yourself, look no further!

Master Lee has changed my sons life. Master Oh's patience and approach to instructing young kids will keep you smiling for hours after the class. These two work together and create an environment that fosters respect, discipline, focus, physical fitness and self defense. Best sport my 5 year old has done!

My daughter began her studies here when she was 3, as a "little tiger", mainly to learn to focus and to be respectful. Now, 3 years later, she will be a black belt tomorrow!
Master Lee is amazing with children and makes practice fun and entertaining for the kids and adults.
The studio will become a second home to you.
I couldn't recommend this studio any higher.
