Some are fabulous and are really good at teaching and then others are some who either can't teach to kids or are too shy and have zero input almost like it's a requirement for a student to get an advanced belt that they must teach. My son's white belt class had one instructor who barely said anything or made any corrections. Small children are hard to teach and their attention span is not long, having someone who is qualified to teach small kids would be a huge improvement They seem very profit motivated during the summer they want to push kids to their summer camps so they make the testing in the middle of the day which is difficult for parents who work and also if your kids are already signed up for a different camp they basically miss a month.

Most importantly, my wife enjoys it much more than the gyms and training we've tried in the past, which helps us stick to the regiment. It's quite different from the Tae Kwon Do I've studied in the past, so I'm having fun learning completely new things, exercising with various hand weapons, as well as applying the movement to what I've learned before. The instruction is very personalized, and there's a good rotation of instructors from the region and nationally, each of whom emphasize a different aspect of training. They are very knowledgeable about different customizations to help you with stengths, weaknesses, abilities, and goals. My chronic lower back pain has all but disappeared over the past year, my bicycling form and comfort has improved, and my wife has better circulation for hiking and fewer headaches.

Master West responded immediately with a potential plan. We had an evaluation scheduled for the day after his arrival, attended a few trial classes, and he was attending an appropriate skill level class twice a week. The class schedule had some flexibility to allow for his other planned activities. Master West provides the individual attention and assistance to each participant, and he helped my grandson bridge the small knowledge gaps. The program includes building self confidence and respect for others which was exhibited by the support and inclusivity of the other students. We'll be back next summer, for sure.

But we're a month in to classes, and they are more and more enthusiastic each time they go!

It all began in 1994 when I first encountered Master Hufana in his school near Cross Road Mall…read morewhere I went there for purchasing a uniform for a competition in Canada.This initial interaction marked the beginning of a transformative relationship that extended beyond just providing me with martial arts gear. After the tournament in British Columbia, I decided to join TKD classes under Master Hufana's guidance. Over time, I also did some training with him on Traditional Arnis, a Filipino martial art known for its focus on weapon-based fighting techniques. Traditional Arnis emphasizes not only physical combat skills but also mental discipline and strategic thinking. In 2004, my life took a different turn as I was deployed to Afghanistan as part of the US Army. It was during this challenging period that the philosophy of martial arts, instilled by Master Hufana and the training experiences, became invaluable. The principles of martial arts such as tactics, alertness, preparedness, survival skills, fitness, and the code of the Samurai served as guiding lights in navigating the complexities of a war zone.The teachings of honesty, loyalty, respectfulness, and maintaining integrity at all times resonated deeply with me as I faced adversity in Afghanistan. The discipline instilled through martial arts training helped me to stay focused, resilient, and true to my martial arts values even in the most challenging circumstances.Master Hufana's philosophy not only enriched my understanding of martial arts but also equipped me with valuable life lessons that transcended the boundaries of combat sports. The fusion of Eastern martial arts philosophy with Western military service exemplifies the universal applicability and timeless wisdom embedded in martial arts traditions. With respect, MK-Samurai 2024.

The instructors are knowledgeable and really care.

Oom Yung Doe is a style of…read moretraditional moo doe, which is the original root of martial arts before it branched out into all the different styles. These schools focus on the healing knowledge of martial arts as opposed to the breaking knowledge of martial arts. Yes, you can still learn some very strong self-defense, but the point is to improve yourself and then improve the people and communities around you. The instructors are all very genuine and caring and the knowledge passed is very deep. The training combines movements from all east asian styles of martial arts, along with herbs and meditation. There is also philosophy passed, such as not hurting others and being true to your inner self. Oom Yung Doe offers many different training programs. You can train towards your black belt in moo doe, you can train in one particular style, you can take a short-term or a longer-term program, or you can take a conditioning program designed to develop one particular aspect of your self (such as strength, flexibility, core development, jumping ability, etc.). There are also conditioning programs that will help to resolve physical, mental, or emotional issues - these programs use herbs, pressure points, and simple movements and are very effective. You can also enroll your children in either regular classes or in special programs designed to boost their abilities in sports or other athletics. Overall, this place is great and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in getting or staying healthy and strong.

I have two kids who are young and don't like any kind of sports…read more I enrolled my kids to Master Kwon's class a few years ago and kids loved him and his class. Super friendly and they learned more than just martial art. Master Kwon taught them how to respect others and listen to parents. Then Master Kwon moved away for a bit (a couple years). I did hear he came back and decided to enroll my kids to his class again. Kids are happy to attend his class again and relearning what they forgot. Master Kwon is sincere and cares about what his students are learning from his class. I highly recommend this place for you or your children.

I don't know where to begin with Master Kwon's Tiger Kicks. When we first started, we started a…read moretrial class with a friend of my son's. My son ended up joining and his friend didn't, which was kind of funny since he was the one who suggested it. As my son continued, I thought it looked like so much fun so I joined in too. Master Kwon and Instructor Kwon is a husband and wife team and they are so kind and nice. They push the kids to be respectful, focused, confident and kind. They are true role models for these kids as well as the adults. They are also very precise and position their students exactly where their hands need to be and where their foot placement should be. They also build up the kids confidence, and it's like night and day. We have watched so many kids grow from these shy and almost meek kids into confident and strong children. The great thing as well is that they don't teach the kids to "fight". They teach them self defense, respect, kindness and discipline. They have a 5 stripe system where the kids can earn a trophy at each belt test if they do 5 tasks. 1) read 14 books, 2) do 10 chores a day for 60 days, 3) teacher sign off for their schooling, 4) testing for their form and 5) parent sign off of their papers to get the last stripe. And that last stripe is a goal that the parents can set for their kids. It's a great system and it makes sure that the kids study, are kind to their teachers and other kids at school, they do their chores at home, and are respectful to their parents and siblings. My son even started doing competitions which he didn't want to do at first. After some encouragement by myself and the Kwons, he finally decided to enter into a competition. He was really nervous at first, but now after 2 competitions under his belt, he has built up a lot of confidence and is now excited to continue entering into more competitions. I can't say enough about Master and Instructor Kwon. They are so nice, kind and sweet. They are very inspiring and our lives are so much better from learning from their example.
