Training with Sifu-Don and the SoCal Wing Chun Academy has been a life-changing experience for my…read moreson and I. My wife and I want our kids to be involved in some type of sport or physical activity outside of daily school. My son had been a dedicated club soccer player for a few yrs but COVID put a damper on that so we were looking for something different he might like. I, personally, had always been a Bruce Lee fan and loved the art of Wing Chun but had never taken part in it. My son was 12 yrs old and had only done a little wrestling as far as self defense so I signed us up for a free week of classes. Usually a 12 yr old would be in the Youth classes but my son was allowed to train alongside me (46 yrs) in the adult classes with grown men and women. As soon as our first class was over he said, "Man, I can't wait to do this again!' He and I were hooked. We continued on for an entire yr together where we trained and fought alongside each other. I had no idea the impact it would have on him to see me (his own father) take my own ups n downs throughout the process of learning. He witnessed me get humbled many times during trainings (hard for a father to do/admit) but I knew I wanted him to see that I was willing to let him see me fail so he could also see me continue on and not give up. It took incredible discipline and dedication for us both but our bond and relationship as father and son took immense strides forward and watched my 12 yr old boy become an artist of Wing Chun during that time. He developed a love of the craft and discipline that Sifu-Don Presto and the many other coaches instilled in him along the way: Samba, Mike, Gabe, Charles, Jamere, Kevin, others. All great men with great character that held my son accountable but also gave him great praise and encouragement when earned. This was the longest my son and I had done anything together, how incredibly rewarding as a father. When I needed to take a break during summer, Sifu-Don offered my son a position as a coach for his Youth classes on Mon-Tues-Wed evenings. He was honored at the opportunity and jumped right in. Working with both, adults and young children (ages 6-12 yrs), men, women, girls, boys, has taught him so much as a young man and character development. Sifu-Don Presto and the staff of coaches at SoCal Wing Chun Academy (Murrieta) have made a life-changing impact on my son and I and have ignited a passion for the martial arts in him that I never saw coming. My wife and I are so incredibly thankful that we made this connection and hope other families may take advantage of such an opportunity. Stop by SoCal Wing Chun Academy today. -Tyler King

We first tried jiu-jitsu, but the one-hour classes were too long for their attention span, and they quickly lost interest. I was looking for a place where they could feel centered and truly enjoy learning. When I called Yamashita Karate, I explained everything to Sensei Eric, and he was incredibly polite and understanding. He suggested that my kids come for their first class just to see if they liked it. The classes are only 30 minutes, twice a week ,the perfect amount of time for them. I can't express how thankful I am for Sensei Eric's kind and professional approach. He has earned my kids' respect, and now they listen, focus, and can't wait for the next class! He also talked to them about stranger danger, which was so helpful , they really understood how important it is to be aware of their surroundings. Now they're having classes with Sensei Emily, and they absolutely love her! She shows them so much love, patience, and encouragement every step of the way. I can honestly say that this is the best place you can choose for your kids. It teaches not only karate but also respect, focus, and confidence. P. and N. love you all and truly enjoy every class!

It all started when I signed up my son first, while it didnt work out for him because he needed to go to therapy and other commitments my daughter on the other hand had ask me to enroll her too. Before I knew it, ACE Taekwondo was all she talked about. What began as curiosity quickly turned into real passion and that excitement has only grown. A big reason for this is the amazing Master Kim who has a gift for connecting with kids and making every class fun, engaging, and encouraging while still teaching discipline and respect. Even more special is that he trained under his own dad, the Grandmaster, and they now teach together. The kids truly get the best of both worlds tradition, experience, and a positive learning environment.Not to mention, we are always welcomed with the sweetest greeting from beautiful Mrs. Kim. My daughter looks forward to every class. There's no convincing or pushing needed she's genuinely excited to go. The Master and Grandmaster consistently bring out the best in her. I was so used to watching my daughter shine in the acting/modelling world, so seeing her light up in Taekwondo came as a wonderful surprise. It's been such a reminder that when kids are placed in a supportive, (such as ACE TKD) welcoming environment, they often discover strengths they didn't even know they had. Beyond learning kicks, forms, and discipline, my daughter (me and my son too) has made new good friends,This isn't just a Taekwondo school, it's a community that encourages, supports, and celebrates its students. Who would have thought a non-athletic family would end up cheering so loudly from the sidelines of a Taekwondo class? We're incredibly grateful we are part of ACE TKD Family.
