We signed up our child about a year ago, and it's the best thing we could have done! Master Lee has is a great teacher. Our child has gained confidence and focus, which were our main goals. We are still a couple years away from our son making Black Belt, but we plan to go all the way!

Our started as a cub last summer, and has lately moved up to the junior class. We have been very pleased with the quality of the instruction and the combination of strictness and attention our son received. It is a warm, inviting place.

This really is a great school! It is very clean and very professional. The staff obviously loves working with children and we love Mr. Lee! We have been training here for over 3 years.
My wife and I totally disagree with any of the negative statements made in the other reviews.
This program has done wonders for my child and I recommend this school to anyone!

This school is a member of the Tiger Rock franchise. If the name of the school has TKD Plus in it, it's the same franchise. Children in these schools obtain their belts very quickly. There's a $50 fee every 2 months to test. The instructors are very young and immature and though they work with kids, they don't seem to understand them. The parents of the students pay their salaries and the costs of running the school, yet their children are seen as an inconvenience. Parents bring their children to classes straight from school or after picking them up from aftercare. The parents are not allowed to bring in outside food because it makes a mess. The kids are allowed to buy food from a vending machine in the school, but this food doesn't make a mess. Really? The children were described as "disrespectful" because they slide the chairs in the back. This means they sat down and the chairs moved a little bit. This allegedly leaves marks on the ceramic tile floor. There is a parent cleaning station so parents can clean the school. I'm sorry, but I pay money every month. YOU clean the school. The senior instructor is more concerned with inconveniencing himself rather than supporting the needs of the people who pay him for services. He speaks down to the parents at awards ceremonies and has repeatedly been described as rude. He yelled at a friend's child which scared him so badly that he ran to the bathroom where his mother found him curled up in the fetal position in the corner. Please, send your child somewhere else. I couldn't recommend martial arts more, but not at this school.

Would not recommend this school. I feel that their testing is a joke! pay 50 bucks, get a belt. I remember when children had to actually work hard for their belts. and if they misbehaved at home or in school, the instructor would enforce harder workouts. I was very very disappointed on how this school is ran. oh, and the sales! what a joke bribing the children with Toys R Us gift cards! and you can only buy snacks out of their machine because outside food makes a mess!! HELLO!! either way its going to be messy! I cannot wait till my contract ends in February!!
I heard Moon College is a really good school! I may chedck into that one!!
Thank you Master Lee for all you have done for my nephew. I don't get to come watch him often but when I do I am so pleased by the quality of instruction and individual attention he requires. I appreciate your firm but fair approach with the children and think that the structure and discipline you provide is phenomenal. Also thank you for providing a warm and inviting atmosphere for the parents and students alike. It is obvious that you are committed to your students! I know that it takes several years to get a Black Belt, but I know my nephew can do it. Also, deciding not to let him test for his Blue Belt Level 1 last Testing was a great decision that I also appreciate. I know you will make the best decision for when he is ready to advance! Thanks again from a happy uncle!
