  • Picking the RIGHT Martial arts school for your child!

    Picking the RIGHT Martial arts school for your child!

    For parents that are interested in martial arts for their children, finding the "right" school is most important. With all the different types of martial arts and different goals for each school, it's important to find the one that matches with the values parents are looking for their children to gain. The questions and items we encourage people to ask and look for are: •Quality of instructors - Not just as martial artists but as teachers. Credentials are great but doesn't guarantee a personality that develops a great connection with students. • Curriculum and how someone progresses - There are many "moves" people can learn in martial arts, from ....

My daughter does not attend we live an hour away. My nephew is the student and we came to his belt testing. It was such a positive environment. You could tell how hard all those instructors and students work and it was awesome that we got to be witness to all of those kids be praised for their hard work.

We started taking lessons as a family after some of us participated in TKD training in another state for about a year. For us, it was a good time to start again. On it's own, the level of training, education and individualized attention received by each TKD student is outstanding and worthy of a five star review. However, a scale of five is not enough to rate the community and social environment that has been fostered by Master Scarsella, Mrs. Scarsella and a team of fun and dedicated staff. It is an enjoyable place to spend our time with wonderful people to be around. If you are looking for something that will provide a positive influence on your family, there are few places I would recommend higher, if any.
