RO INSLER TAEKWONDO

When we first signed up our son, Josh, for Taekwondo, I was wary of it, because I was afraid it would teach him fighting skills and encourage him to be violent. I couldn't have been more wrong! Though he will be learning fighting skills (for self-defense only!), Taekwondo is about so much more than that! Through his first year of Takewondo, Josh has learned about discipline, self-respect, and respect toward others including his teachers, parents, higher belts, and his fellow students. Josh excelled at Taekwondo and earned the unanimous vote of his teachers and peers for Outstanding Student at the end of his first year. He is currently at Yellow Belt and attends class twice a week. Our daughter Rebecca has started Taekwondo this year as well, and is currently at 1st High White Belt. Master Ro and the other instructors meet each child at their own level and work with them with a spirit of kindness and patience. The kids work hard, but in addition to learning how to defend themselves, they also learn valuable social skills that they will need through life. I don't know exactly how they do it, but Master Ro and Mr. Jess have made us feel like part of a big family, and we can see this spirit is shared and felt by everyone who attends the school.
