I am currently 21 years old and I owe Hapkido my life as it taught me self discipline at such a young age and led me to carry those same philosophies throughout high school up into the present. I love Hapkido because of the culture this school produces. The culture of confidence, not arrogance. The culture of movement and life, not stillness. The culture of love, not hate. Grand Master Chang and Master Austria have given me life beyond my years. I highly recommend this school to anyone who cares about caring for themselves or their family. It focuses on self defense techniques that could literally save your life someday. This school is a place where kids can grow up and become leaders rather than followers. It is a place where you push yourself to be a better you. I can't stress how greatly appreciative I am of this wonderful school and all the amazing mentors I had. Do yourself a favor and sign up as soon as possible!

The do-jang is warm and welcoming and strikes the perfect balance of athletics, discipline and respect. Master Al and Miss Jill model the behavior they expect, and in turn the students work hard to follow their good example. ABBC Tae Kwon Do has been the best thing I've done for my focus, discipline, skill, endurance and strength - both physically and mentally. Master Al and Miss Jill are great examples of how martial arts can improve everyone's life. They care and show respect for each individual and their enthusiasm makes demanding workouts and lessons a joy. I look forward to going to the do-jang every chance I get.

It remains one of the best decisions I've made for my family so far. The classes are energetic and fun. Anyone at any fitness level can feel comfortable here. I swear the school is made up of the most welcoming, non judgmental people I've ever met. The real strength here is the instructor team. The classes are taught by Sensei Mike and Sensei Chris, and the level of energy and knowledge between them is remarkable. They genuinely care for their students and push them to be their best. My daughter earned a junior black belt, I earned a first degree black belt, and my son is on his way to his junior black belt as well. I can't recommend them highly enough!
