We ended up at Tae Ryong early 2019 when our son's previous program closed unexpectedly. And we feel as though we have been all the better for it. What started as activity meant to burn off energy and teach some discipline ended up becoming a way of life for us. We never really anticipated that we would become a Taekwondo family, but we are. And that is because of the amazing influence and instruction of Master Bang and his instructors. Our son's skill has grown more than we could imagine under the guidance of Master Bang and his instructors. They work very well with children, are knowledgeable, and friendly. Each of the instructors is more than a teacher. They are role models that the children look up to and look forward to seeing. They have cultivated a community you are proud to part of. I think this is why we joined our son and embarked on our own taekwondo journey. We couldn't be more happy. read more

The staff at Tae Ryong Taekwondo are excellent. They are very patient with the kids and are very knowledgeable about their craft. The instructors & Master Bang help encourage and show great enthusiasm to teach the kids. Team Tae Ryong have immense values, which I love seeing and having my son be taught them. My son has been coming to Tae Ryong for about 4 hrs now and he absolutely loves going to class. With each belt my son has earned, only makes him want to strive for the next. He loves learning from Senior Master Bang & the instructors (Jared, Prayag, Gina, Jinu & Master Mark). Going to taekwondo has helped my son evolve into a strong, confident and responsible boy. Thank you Team Tae Ryong for all you do :) read more

My family and I love this place. All of the instructors are friendly, patient with every student , highly attentive and skilled. My son absolutely enjoys coming to Taekwondo. He has improved his confidence and developed skills to defend himself if he should ever need to. All of the instructors show compassion, kindness and encouragement to everyone. The students are taught that they must earn there belts, they just don't get them. The students are taught more than martial arts. They learn to be better listeners, to respect one another and to care for there families. Each student is told that they must be better people in class and at home. Not just in Taekwondo. I highly recommend Tae Ryong Taekwondo. read more

My son has been learning TKD from Master Bang and crew since the age of 3, he is now turning 7 and has earned a blue belt (roughly half way to black). Tae Ryong is a fantastic studio with strong family values. They are structured without being overly strict or punitive. Good emphasis on discipline, responsibility, and caring. We are so glad to have found Tae Ryong, especially these past couple years "living in the bubble" when we were still able to participate TKD over structured ZOOM classes while stuck at home. We can't thank them enough. read more

Where to begin, this studio has given me an amazing family, my voice, leadership skills, confidence, and so much more. Master Bang pushes you to be the greatest you can be and Instructors Jared, Gina, Prayag, and Gina are dedicated to supporting you and making the entire process so much fun! I can say with 100% certainty that I would not be the person, student, athlete, or friend that I am today without Tae Ryong Bakersfield. No matter who you are or where you come from, I would recommend Tae Ryong with my whole heart. read more
