After School Care That Actually Ends Your Day Calmer

We pick your child up from school, sit with them through homework, feed them a snack, and finish the afternoon with Taekwondo. You collect a kid who is fed, done with homework, and worn out — any time before 9:00 PM.

The 3:00 PM Problem

School lets out hours before work does. Most families patch the gap with a rotation of grandparents, neighbours and guesswork — and every afternoon it has to be solved again.

Our doors open at 2:00 PM, Monday through Friday. We collect your child from their school, bring them to our academy on SW 8th Street, and keep them in one safe, supervised place until you arrive.

By the time you pick up, homework is done and checked, they have eaten, and they have spent an hour training with a certified instructor instead of on a screen. Evenings stop being a scramble.

"Parents tell me the same thing every year — it isn't only the pickup. It's getting their evening back."

How It Works

A Day in the After School Program

Monday through Friday, 2:00 PM until you arrive

2:00 PM — School Pickup

We collect your child

Our staff picks up from participating local schools and brings students directly to the academy. No bus transfers, no waiting alone at the gate.

2:30 PM — Snack & Reset

Food first

A healthy snack and a few minutes to decompress before anything else. Hungry kids don't do homework.

3:00 PM — Homework Hour

Supervised study time

A quiet, structured block with staff on hand to help. Most students leave with the day's assignments finished.

4:00 PM — Taekwondo Training

Class with a certified instructor

Age-appropriate Taekwondo instruction — the same curriculum and belt progression as our regular program, taught by Master Vicente and his black belt team.

Until 9:00 PM — Pickup

On your schedule

We're open until 9:00 PM on weekdays. Collect your child whenever your day actually ends.

Why Families Choose Us

Not a Holding Pen

The afternoon has a curriculum, not just supervision

Family Taekwondo School has been on SW 8th Street since 2001, and more than 500 students have trained here.

The program is run by Master Vicente Albuerne — a 6th Dan black belt certified by Kukkiwon in Korea, a 20-year Florida State Champion (2007–2026), and a 6-time AAU National Gold Medalist, most recently in 2026.

Your child is not being watched by whoever was available. They are being taught by a national-level competitor who has spent 25 years working with children in this neighbourhood.

Questions

What Parents Ask First

Which schools do you pick up from?

We pick up from a number of participating schools in the West Miami area. Call (305) 225-9779 and we'll confirm whether your child's school is on the route.

What ages is the program for?

Elementary and middle school students. If you're unsure whether it's the right fit for your child's age, ask us — we'll tell you honestly.

Does my child need previous Taekwondo experience?

No. Most After School students start as complete beginners with a white belt and progress from there.

How late can I pick up?

We're open until 9:00 PM Monday through Friday. There is no extra late-pickup fee within our normal hours.

Can we try it before enrolling?

Yes. The first afternoon is free. Request a free trial and we'll arrange a day that works.

What does it cost?

See our pricing page, or call (305) 225-9779 for current After School rates and sibling discounts.
