Negative postings are incorrect

The people posting negative posts do not even attend New Wave and know nothing about the school. I am actually a parent and my daughter and 2 sons have trained in one form or another with the Master in question who is excellent. I was also a parent at the school the one sad person claims was closed because of this Master. The fact is, I was present and it was this Master who kept White Tiger going for years. His family even loaned the school money and the school owner stated that fact in front of about 14 students and 16 parents. The master you claim is not good, left in 2010 because the school owner cheated students by charging them for Black Belts but never got their Kukkiwon certificates even though they were paid for. I know this to be true because it was the Master of New Wave who had to get it for me AND....he paid for it out of his own pocket. The owner of the other school was only able to pay his rent because the Master of New Wave worked out terms with the landlord. When the Master of New Wave chose to leave because of the other owner's unethical behavior, the landlord then kicked the other school out when he did not pay his rent. Get your lies correct. I was there!


Ridiculous & childish negative posts

The website of New Wave Martial Arts does not show instructors and lacks other content BECAUSE I have not yet completed the site for the school. I have run behind but the instructors will be posted. I have however personally seen with my own eyes the credentials of the Masters & Instructors and they were ALL issued by Kukkiwon in Seoul, Korea! That item alone shows that the phony posters have not only created different phone names but that they are ignorant of the actual people and facts. I might suggest that they both grow up! New Wave is an excellent school and they have taught my own children since they opened last month. I have seen nothing but professionalism, knowledge and a compassion for people in general. The phony posters simply need to get a life as they both have their own problems. Knowing both of these, maybe it is time that we begin making negative comments on at least the one who also has a business and works from his house. I wonder if he would like others in his industry to know of his own personal past which has harmed clients. Incidentally, I have access to the actual court records (because of my profession) and the case these idiots post show that the Master was hit from behind with a spin kick to the throat which almost killed him. Oh! Hospital records will show that as well. Oh! It was the parents of the attacker who caused the suit which was won the 1st time. Interested in the court case?


Phony Posters

The negative posts are from 2 people and ONLY 2 people. One is from an Amanda who the family took in when her father sexually (check out David Samuel Apriggs in the sex registry) and teh other from an estranged son who has nothing better than to create trouble for his father. It is true that a case exists but the phony posters do not give the real facts. The student hit the Master while his back was turned (in court records) and the school owner testified for the Master in question! In fact, it was not the student who caused the suit but the parents who praised the incident. Amanda & Scott...get your stories straight! Court records cannot be tampered with and they will show this rebuttal to be true! Also, the Master in question does not own a billing company at this time and has not for a long time. Again, get your facts straight. As the saying goes, there are 2 sides to every story and this master is highly respected not only by the students but from many other school owners who have been helped. No one, anywhere can always please everyone and it is suggested that the phony posters remember that. What a drag on humanity they both are!

I use to train under the instructors at this school for a handful of years and I have nothing but praise for the way this school teaches! We tried out previous schools before this one and one school didn't work one on one with each student and wasn't very friendly and the other school was all about money. My son has learned SO much with these instructors which even reflected the respect they learned on the mat. Aside from that, he would still be going if it weren;t for a messed up knee along with constant tutoring! I would highly recommend this school to anyone.

Negative Entries are false and provided by ONE individual

The previous commentors are ONLY one person whose name is Amanda. She was previously taken in by the family of the instructor and then cheated on the son of the family. She was ultimately kicked out of the family and this person provides provides phony listings. The comments are only based upon anger and immaturity. If this individual chooses to provide such lies and contemptable entries, then I would be happy to post pictures and other facts about this woman to show that she has no credibilty whatsoever.

HIGH pressure sales tactics

Owners own a school billing service which has a horrible reputation, they were affiliated with the other school in that shopping center which they drove out of business and now interestingly have opened for themselves.

Google the owners and their sons to see complaint after complaint. With all of the choices in the area it would be best to chose another school.

The owner of this school was kicked by the student he was teaching, sues his parents and loses the case. Not an organization I would associate with.

I agree with the previous comment. The owners have a bad reputation in the industry and will charge fees just to make more profit. Rip off artists if you ask me. I will not let me family associate with anyone at that company.
