A Great Place to Learn About Yourself and Martial Arts

After a twenty year absence form martial arts training and at the age of 40, Master Malm and his instructors welcomed me into their program without any hint of cynicism or patronizing attitude. I chose this school because of the positive attitude of the program. There were many young kids, and I watched as Master Malm enjoyed working with boys and girls of all ages, imbuing them with a sense of self-confidence and fun. As there were also several young women in the program, I could tell that this school was not just another all male "in-your-face" martial arts program.I felt that I was very competently trained. While having fun, there was an underlying seriousness to learning the physical, philosophical and emotional aspects of martial arts. The black belt members were more interested in sharing information and making the younger participants better than they were in showing how "bad-ass" they could be. I highly recommend Desert Taekwondo to any individual interested in learning the martial arts. Kamsa Hamnida, Master Malm!

A great school and great instructors!

Having studied at other schools and seen what some other “master” instructors offer and claim, I can truly testify to Master Malm’s lineage and professionalism. There is no smoke and mirrors at Desert TKD, just dedicated, QUALFIED instructors that take pride in not only teaching martial arts but ensuring the students understand the meaning of the movements. Master Malm has dedicated himself to the preservation of the arts through his continued studies and commitment through teaching.

Great school for kids and parents

Before finding Desert TKD, I tried other TKD schools. I was disappointed by their scripted teaching methods and impersonal character. It was like taking my son to Gymboree rather than martial arts training. At Desert TKD, Master Malm and his wife Amy truly care about the art of Taekwondo and work very hard to teach all students to be courteous as well as victorious. This is not some corporate franchise, but rather a training center that is genuinely interested in each and every student. I started with my son training there but decided later to join in on the fun and exercise. Now I'm hooked. If you're looking for mental discipline, physical conditioning, and top-notch martial arts instruction in an environment where all students have a great attitude, you must try Desert TKD.

Try One Class

Master Malm has been WONDERFUL with both of my children. I could not ask for a better role model for my family!! He is very good at what he does, and a genuinely nice person.

Desert Taekwondo

I went to DTKD as an adult, seeking to gain fitness, and knowledge of a martial art. I'm now a black belt. Master Malm and his wife Amy (a 4th degree) are excellent examples to their students and truly make you feel like family. The classes are challenging but fun. I know now that I can defend myself in any situation. And I owe that to the awesome teaching I received at DTKD.

I recommend Master Malm

Master Malm is a very knowledgeable instructor. He has and continues to study other oriental martial arts discipline. That is the reason why we met. I was looking for Okinawa Kenpo instructors and found him. Yes, he is an outstanding Okinawa Kenpo and Kobudo stylist. I have to start by saying that Master Malm is one of the best instructors I have ever met. After meeting him in Facebook and later on being assigned to do some work in Tucson, I had the honor to meet him, observe some of his classes and later on practice with him. I observed that Master Malm treat his students with Kindness, yet he shows them the correct discipline and rigorous training that his arts demands. He is very quick to point out all the skills that a successful martial artist must have. He also keeps his classes fun and easy to follow. Master Malm welcomes everybody that wishes to study with him. I would say that anybody that is looking for irregular martial arts curriculum will be more than satisfied with M

An outstanding Martial Arts School for Children of all ages.

The atmosphere at Desert TKD is positive, upbeat, and conducive to learning. It really feels like a second home. Master Malm is well educated and very professional. He is an example to all his students, young and old. If you are looking to build self esteem and character, while learning to defend yourself, then I highly recommend studying under the direction of Master Malm.

Perfect for families!

All four of my children have been attending Desert Taekwondo for several years now. Great family rates for an excellent program. Master Malm and his team are excellent instructors and work very well with kids of all ages. They truly nuture each student to better their skills and improve at their own pace. My kids love class and the friends they have made there. I love knowing that I am providing my kids with a life-long sport from teachers I respect and trust.

the best in town!

Master Malm is the best teacher for children that I have ever seen. Excellent class control and a wonderful motivator. My son is learning by leaps and bounds. The adult classes are great too. It's like having a personal trainer and not having to pay PT fees!

Great in All Aspects

Desert Taekwondo is a great school for martial arts because the main instructor and the high ranking students (black belts) are always helpful and encouraging. The atmosphere is positive and family-oriented. Students range from less than 5 years old to 60 years and above. Classes are offered on most days at a variety of times.
