Reason's World Taekwondo Academy, LLC Introduce
Welcome to Reason's World Taekwondo Academy, LLC, a dedicated martial arts school with convenient locations in both Salem and Keizer, Oregon. We are committed to providing a high-quality, authentic Taekwondo experience that focuses on personal growth, discipline, and physical fitness. Our academy is a place where every student, from young children to adults, can embark on a transformative journey. We believe in the power of martial arts to shape not just the body, but also the mind and character. Our core philosophy emphasizes earning every accomplishment through hard work and perseverance, ensuring that each belt and every new skill is a true reflection of a student's dedication and effort.
At the heart of our academy is our head instructor, Mr. Reason. He is known for his commitment to his students, remembering everyone by name and caring deeply about their success. His teaching style is focused on providing a challenging yet fun environment where students can thrive. As one parent of a 10-year-old noted, "Mr. Reason has adapted quickly to being a Taekwondo teacher for young kids. He made it through Covid and even expanded his classes a lot." This resilience and dedication to the community are what set our academy apart. We teach more than just kicks and blocks; we instill a sense of respect and discipline that extends far beyond the dojo, as seen in the academy's focus on "black belt character qualities" and encouraging students to complete "good deed" sheets.
A defining characteristic of Reason's World Taekwondo Academy is our rigorous and honest approach to belt progression. We do not simply hand out belts based on time or money spent. Instead, every student must pass a comprehensive test to earn their next belt. This commitment to merit-based achievement is something that our students and their families deeply appreciate. As one parent observed, they have seen "many other places where they just hand out a new belt every few months without even testing for it." At our academy, if a student fails a test, they are given clear guidance on what to work on and are encouraged to re-test when they are ready. This process ensures that every student truly earns their rank and develops a strong sense of personal accomplishment. We are a place where skill and effort are the keys to success.

On Mondays and Wednesdays, we meet at our Keizer location, which is situated at 5045 River Road North, within the West Coast Strength gym.

★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1My 10yr old boy has been going to Mr Reason's class for just over 2 years. Mr Reason has adapted quickly to being a Taekwondo teacher for young kids. He made it through Covid and even expanded his classes a lot. He teaches the kids respect and discipline (thought in my eyes he could be a little more assertive with that aspect). I sit and watch most every class and if my kids become to troublesome I make the stay after and apologize. Some parents drop their kids off and wait in the parking lot which is totally fine and I've done every now and then. But with not being there to watch how their kids behave, some kids take advantage of this knowing that Mr Reason isn't there to discipline them as a parent. Also, there is safe sparing practice (with or without gear) and they learn different kicks, blocks, punches, and combo moves. But the best, most important thing I like about Mr Reason, is that he doesn't just hand out belts based on how much money you spend or how long you've been there. You have to pass each test to actually earn the next belt, if you fail he will tell you what you need to work on and take another test when he feels you are ready. I've seen many other places where they just hand out a new belt every few months without even testing for it. Mr Reason really cares about everyone in his classes and remembers everyone by name. He even offers 2 free classes incase you wanna try it out, so feel free to come check him out.
March 12 · Kristen MatlockMy 10 year old daughter joined this taekwondo school after doing taekwondo in another state. We were very happy to find Randy Reason’s classes! The classes are small and a real effort is made to make each class unique, challenging, and fun. I appreciate that my daughter is encouraged to practice black belt character qualities and is recognized for getting “good deed” sheets completed by her family, teachers, etc. to bring back to class. My daughter’s skills and behavior have improved, as has her appreciation for taekwondo, at this school.
March 15 · Ali RiggsI am thoroughly pleased with the instruction that I received at Reason Taekwondo. Before I moved to Eugene, OR, I searched for a local dojang that was similar to the training that I had become accustomed to at other gyms. When I found one, I thought that it was decent enough. However, with each passing week, I loathed having to train there. After the awareness of the coronavirus and subsequent quarantine, I became certain that I would not return. I did not want to abandon my training; so when it was deemed safer to meet in-person with guidelines, I researched gyms. Reason Taekwondo is where I chose to train. The instructor is knowledgeable, provides rigorous warm-ups, and is professional. My 120 mile round-trip was worth the drive.
March 24 · Terilyn LawsonTerrific studio. I joined two years ago as an adult student. Mr. Reason is able to accommodate and include multiple levels of experience and athleticism. He knows how to set goals that match the particular student's needs and abilities & maintains an atmosphere of friendliness and respect.
March 04 · Maizie RednerI took my niece here and even those she was scared and intimidated by the possibility of being the only girl reason was really awesome and it turned out she would not be the only girl that was really cool to see how patient and understanding he was with her and her anxiety
