A long over due review of Elite TDK Center…read more Growing up Asian, we all at one point in life learned TDK and followed the teachings of the sport in some way one or the other. Now that we have become parents, sending our 5 year old son to TDK was one the best decisions ever! All the Masters here are fully trained and equipped to train and mold our little ones. They are patient, kind, and most of all love our kids as much as we do! We look forward to having our little ones grow up and build a strong relationship with the sport here and most importantly, learn to love the sport as much as we did as kids/young adults. Thank you Elite TDK! You guys are the best hand downs! Choong Hyo!

We love Elite Taekwondo Center! My daughter joined the competition team here 4 years ago and she…read moreloves it so much. The Masters are amazing and very knowledgeable. They care about the kids and have a passion teaching Taekwondo to the students. The competition team is also very active and competes often. The competition team families are very close and the kids bond by traveling together and supporting one another during tournaments. We are so grateful to have such an awesome Taekwondo family. The Masters are very attentive with all of the students and make sure that they are learning and progressing, not only in Taekwondo, but in their daily life outside of the studio.

I recently enrolled my 6-year-old daughter in a 3-month trial for martial arts, and it has been…read moresuch a positive experience! She was nervous at first, but to our surprise, she absolutely loved her initial sessions. Master Nagayama and his team of black belt instructors strike a perfect balance between being firm and constructive, making the classes both engaging and encouraging. My daughter never felt intimidated, which was a huge relief as a parent. The facility itself is spacious, with plenty of seating for parents to comfortably watch their kids. The overall ambiance is welcoming and supportive, creating a great environment for young learners. Highly recommend if you're considering martial arts for your child!

We really enjoy the life lessons that this studio has brought in to my son's life. We also enjoy that this studio doesn't give belts away but makes the students truly earn them.

Worthy accomplishments are often earned through hard work and practice.

It's too good to take a chance on the others. Her instructor Tristan La Favor is the truth. He leads the kids with confidence but leaves his ego out of it. If your kid is wimpy, shy, out of shape, or wild and over confident (like mine), just make the commitment, spend the money, and take the time to bring your kid in as many times a week as you can. It will make a difference. In just two moths I have seen a huge difference in my girl. I asked a few questions on facebook messages before going for the first time and got some pretty quick & earnest responses, so maybe start there. The owner is a bit intense so if he ever starts yelling at you for some strange reason don't take it too seriously or personally, he will forget about it the next day. The studio is clean, spacious and street parking is decent, or with validation parking in the lot is 2 bucks. We're happy we gave this place a shot.
