The instructors are so caring and patient with all the students. They take their time to make sure each student feels welcome and respected. I have noticed a change in my sons as they continue to learn about respect, honesty and the tradition of Tae Kwon Do.

They are patient with the kids. They do more than teach them; they truly mentor them in all aspects of the kids lives. The instructors reward good behavior and puts a strong emphasis on school and succeeding in their lives. They go above and beyond for the kids.
- Janice (grandmother)
Jacob has shown tremendous growth in self confidence and respect since he started at Grandmaster Dong's Martial Arts. It's a great family atmosphere and the school values they teach compliment the rules we follow at home.
- Erika (mother)
I never dreamed a man my age could accomplish what I have done, and I now feel more confident in my ability to defend myself, thanks to Master Henry. He has changed my life.

The change in the three of them has been incredible. Although they are still quiet, their self-confidence has increased dramatically. Master Henry and Mrs. Shannon are sensitive to their fears and never fail to provide encouragement, guidance, or tough love when necessary.
- Arlene (mother)
The instructors are incredibly approachable and have an unending well of patience. There is a genuine desire to see each of their students not only to meet those goals, but to exceed them. It isn’t just about meeting the minimum standards, its about putting forth your maximum efforts to achieve your maximum results.
