He has treated her with the upmost respect, dignity and compassion. He can even keep her attention!! This is almost unheard of with her! He is one of the kindest people we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. We were so happy with the outcome that we have enrolled our 14 year old daughter as well. He is so encouraging and we are so incredibly happy with Strike Taekwondo and everyone working there. The discipline, passion and motivation definitely shows!!! Thanks so much Master Bikram, the staff and fellow students!

My son is shy and has lack of confidence. He has been bullied by several kids in his middle school…read morefor a while, so I thought teaching him some kind of martial arts might help him boost his confidence. Hopefully he learns self-defense skills as well. I took my son to this school to register, and as soon as we walked in to check out the place my son was acting very uneasy and said he wanted to go home. A class was going on at the time and the place seems a bit disorganized. We went back to the car and I asked my son if he was ok, but he just wanted to go home. I went back in alone to ask some question about the program but no one seems to care that I was there... So we came home. Later I found out one of the bullies was there in the school wearing a black belt. My son was shocked and didn't want to learn martial arts anymore. I was very disappointed! A black belt in Port Moody Taekwondo school has been bullying my son. This school is not for my son and anyone who wants to learn respect and confidence!

Hi, I started at Budo through the groupon. A 1 hour Muay…read moreThai session was the gnarliest workout ever for me. I then got the 6-weeks unlimited trial, where you can try Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Kyokushin karate. If you want to shape up, this is the best deal. You can go everyday and get a round for your money ! Instructors are super friendly and passioned, they can teach you basics for a great work out or make you do some sparring if you look for some challenge. The atmosphere is super friendly, people are great there. Just take the groupon and see for yourself !

I got a groupon to try the drop in class…read more Not bad, very small and cozy gym area. I was abit confused when I walk in because the reception area and the gym area are neck to neck. It is extremely sweaty and hot in the gym if you don't mind. I went for Monday class, there is not really any structure on the fundamental teaching (although the class description says it is adult fundamental Muay Thai class). The fitness class is good, it is a circuit and plus the heat, you will sweat like a bucket, excellent warm up for the Muay Thai class. I have done Muay Thai before so I know the fundamentals but it might be confusing for someone who has never done it before. The students and the instructors are super nice and friendly. Overall it is very bang for the buck you paid for the groupon. I would go again just because I like the challenges.

This school teaches two styles - bagua and zhaquan. I started out only interested in bagua, because…read moreit focuses more on the soft, internal side of martial arts, while zhaquan is more hard/aggressive. However, the teacher John convinced me to study both, so I finally gave in. It turns out that it's a great combination! Focusing on bagua has really helped me tune into my body and generate power from full-body energy rather than just relying on my arm or leg to strike. Zhaquan adds in the animated, relentless energy that I needed to take my martial arts to the next level. I love this school because I've been able to dig deep into the internal and self defense aspects of martial arts. John is amazing at teaching you exactly what you need when you need it. In some ways, martial arts is like that. It fits everyone's personality, whether they're in it to improve their health, or to learn to defend themselves. So long story short, highly recommended! Whether you come here or end up somewhere else, check it out and see how martial arts can fit your life!
