This is a duplicate review. Unsure what happened. My 5 yr old son takes private Taekwondo classes with Master D. He's been going for a few months now, and we've seen such a great improvement. My son is high energy and would prefer to throw himself up against the wall and roll around, but Master D is super patient with him. That and a combo of his kind but firm approach has helped my son truly love Taekwondo, and he enjoys seeing Master D every week. Master D. truly is the "kid whisperer." Cannot recommend enough!

Simeon has a gift for working with children - he is patient and kind while also very knowledgeable in how to get all kids to engage and learn Tae Kwon Do. For younger students, his classes are fun but structured and he keeps the kids focused and learning. It’s worth noting that he is a highly ranked martial artists and it shows in his instruction, my child is learning proper classical Tae Kwon Do. I can’t recommend him and the school enough.

Highly recommend! I agree with the kid whisperer description - Master D is patient, kind, and stern in a way that leads kids to listen, move, respect him and each other, and have fun while learning new moves and getting stronger. My son just earned his yellow belt and I'm amazed by the noticeable difference in his confidence. He now looks forward to class and one day earning his black belt.
