I have been a member here for over two years now and I've never regretted it. From the moment you walk in, the black belts and instructors are committed to helping you love martial arts as much as they do. I've gained not just friends, but confidence in both how I move and how I conduct myself overall. I've seen this same change in the kids I've worked with.
I credit my passion for taekwondo to Master Instructor Sims, who also works INCREDIBLY hard to keep the gears turning here. We all appreciate his endeavors both on and off the mat!
