We're very happy we signed our 7 yo daughter up for classes, she's really enjoying it and developing confidence and focus like we hoped. All the instructors are great and the program has awesome principles and opportunities so she can keep learning and having fun.

Our son has been attending the CK Lee Taekwondo Academy for almost 4 years. After learning of CK Lee by seeing them in a 4th of July parade, we decided to sign our son up for a 2-day trial class, and we are so glad that we made that decision. He recently became a black belt, and Taekwondo has become a major part of his life. Besides the obvious physical benefits of taekwondo, I am most impressed with the mental and character related aspects of CK Lee's taekwondo program. Discipline, hard work, self-control, integrity and perseverance are at the forefront of everything that Master Lee does with the students. Although the kids need to work hard, and the work gets more challenging as they progress through higher belts, our son has a lot of fun and looks forward to going every week. We are grateful to Master Lee, his family and the other instructors. I would recommend CK Lee to anyone that would like to improve their child's athletic ability, confidence and/or discipline.

I wish I could give CK Lee 6 stars! We have been coming for over a year, and it has been the best place for my son. The supportive instructors and dedicated staff make every interaction positive. There is no end to great role models and encouragement, while also holding him to a high level of discipline and perseverance. There are so many important life lessons we are learning along the way as well. We love it here!

Both of my kids have done taekwondo here, and it has been such a positive experience. The instructors are wonderful with kids of all ages—whether it’s helping the smallest and shyest kids build confidence or challenging the older kids to keep growing. They strike a great balance of encouragement, discipline, and fun. Highly recommend!

This place is absolutely fantastic! The people, the teaching/training and the very vibe is wonderful! They are patient, understanding and welcoming to everyone, those with absolutely no experience to those who already have a black belt. There is so much to learn! Was going through a challenging phase of my life, and joining this academy has made the turbulent sails more bearable. The positive thoughts, values and energy is a beautiful stimulant to looking forward towards life rather than being swallowed with the thoughts of a bleak future! All in all, a beautiful experience :)
