Testimonials
- As the single mom of a very active 5 year old boy, I am so grateful for Master Eric Shields for his mentorship. Like many little boys, my son already has the desire to kick and punch and 'defeat his enemies' but the life skills he's learning through martial arts are building much needed character. Thank you Master Eric for caring about the young people in our community! - Ok Hart

- The instructor (Eric Shields) does an excellent job with the kids & adults in their development of the martial art. His emphasis in self discipline, defense, and respect are what mostly stand out to me. His creativeness in developing students at times is exceptional. I think it's great how he continues to remind each student that they challenge themselves to perform to their best ability. - Dan
- Master Shields and Mr. Corbi are the best teacher I have ever seen. My teen age son has been with them for nine months and has helped turn him into a better person. He has hopes and goals about life again, his school grades has pulled up and stayed and he enjoys it so much he wants to teach taekwondo himself when he gets old enough. Both Master Shields and Mr. Corbi are always there for the kids to teach them teakwondo and any other help they might need in life. I feel very blessed to have both of them in my sons life. - Tina F
- I couldn't say enough what a positive influence Master Shields and Mr Corbi have been in my kids' lives. They care not only about developing their martial arts skills, but their life skills as well. They are great with the kids and are always trying to incorporate new ways to teach the kids and have fun. The best thing for me is that I appreciate the fact that at any time I can go to Master Shields with any concerns I have about my girls; whether it is grades or their behavior at home, and he never hesitates to help me address my issues head on. Our community is all the better for having two amazing role models for our kids to look up too! - Janna C
