“After joining about 6 weeks ago I am totally hooked . Sensei sets a positive, encouraging warm vibe and this is truly a place to get healthier physically and emotionally, as well as becoming confident in self defense. I usually train with Justin during the week and Eric on Saturdays, and they are both amazing people. Even other classmates go out of their way to be helpful. Everyone treats you like family, and I feel blessed to be a part of it !“

“I did a drop in at NY United BJJ while visiting the area during the holidays. For context I’m an early-40s blue belt living in the south.Everything about the gym had great vibes. The level of instruction was top notch, the rolls were challenging but not spazzy, and the team was extremely friendly.Khyl is a great instructor and goes into a great level of detail to ensure everyone is getting attention and executing the moves of the day correctly.He’s extremely personable and gave me a lot attention and tips for someone who he knew wasn’t joining his gym (I was upfront that I’m from out of town). He honestly just wants to help people get better and enjoy our amazing support.Highly recommend this gym if you’re in the area.“

“My son has been attending Tiger Kim's school for a few years now and has really enjoyed his experience. The school is well-organized, communicative with parents, and has created a family-like environment for all its students. It also has a great waiting/seating area where you can watch your kid's class. The Masters train the kids with a healthy balance of discipline and fun and are very supportive and patient. There are also a lot of fun activities planned for the kids during the year like a spring picnic, holiday party, and a Halloween party. In general, I would highly recommend Tiger Kim's Taekwondo school for kids of all ages.“

“I have practiced kumdo off and on for a few years at different locations, including in Korea. Of all the Masters who has taught me, Master Min is by far the best. Not only does he (and Master Lee) stress fundamentals of kumdo, which can easily be translated into any phases of life, but also - and more importantly - takes time to explain why. He and Master Lee are very knowledgeable and very personable.Although my current schedule doesn't allow me to practice now, I recently enrolled my two kids and have been very happy with this decision. My son, in particular, within a short period of time, has gained self-confidence. Martial arts can be monotonous at times, especially for kids. Master Min recognizes this and incorporates fun games that enhances kumdo skills for all kids to enjoy. Thank you, SMK!“
“My boys have been going to Faustinis for a year and a half and it has been so wonderful. Sensei Lynn and Sensei Brianna are wonderful teachers! Karate has helped my kids with their attention spans and their confidence and has also really helped them learn how to work hard for something. I would recommend this place to anyone with grade-school aged children!“
