“My 4 year old loves Ms. Athena and all the instructors that help with the little champs. He has so much fun and has showed a lot of progress in ear focus. He absolutely loves his class.“

“My grandson took Taekwondo here with Grandmaster Kim from Kindergarten through 4th grade. This was one of the best of experiences for my grandson. He developed confidence, self-discipline and goal setting. This is an awesome martial arts school with amazing staff.“

“I started this class a 4 foot 10 female who had 4 serious operations. My original 2 goals were to gain back my strength, and learn how to defend myself. Being 4 foot 10 and a female, you get underestimated quickly.The first thing I noticed in my first class was the close to my height female, who was a black belt and defending herself against guys much taller than her (Denise). That was the first sign that I was in the right place. Any woman who wants to gain confidence, and learn how to recognize just how much power she has should join this class, Denise is the best women's self-defense instructor.The second thing I began to hear and notice was that Sensei not only practices karate, he lives and breathes it. It takes dedication to practice something every day for more than 50 years. Along with learning how to defend myself, I started to get the urge to be disciplined and practice. I wanted to be as good as the higher belts that have been under Sensei, learning his dedication to the practice of karate.Wanting to learn, practice, and be good at something is a whole separate other goal from just wanting to learn how to defend myself. I found something that I enjoy doing and want to be better at.But, for someone who may be looking into taking this class just to get out of the house and join a group, this is the best group to join. This isn't just a karate class, it's a karate family. This is a group of people who will be your friend. Everyone in this class is caring. If someone is ill, they check up on them. If someone has a family emergency, they are quick to ask if there is anything they can do to help. And Sensei doesn't just see his students as bodies in the class, he cares for every single one of them along their journey through karate, however short or long it may be.“

“Upon Moving to VA a goal of ours was to make sure our son got an excellent start in Martial Arts. Went on the hunt for a school that we believed would provide the right foundation for our son, one where the dojo was welcoming and harmonious.we literally looked at 5 different dojos before checking out Potomac Kempo, and from the moment we walked in, we knew. This is where our son needed to be, he absolutely loves going to training. The Sensei and instructors are professional and always willing to answer questions. If you are looking for a place for your child and or for yourself to improve, grow stronger, be more focused and achieve goals. Potomac Kempo is the Dojo for you.“

“I go there for taekwondo class and when I first came everyone was nice and kind. I fit in immediately and now I'm a 1st degree black belt.“

“The Black Belt Academy is amazing! All three of my kids attend and they absolutely love it. The instructors are fantastic, providing top-notch training while also fostering a supportive and inclusive environment. My kids have grown not only in their martial arts skills but also in confidence and discipline. The facility is clean and well-maintained, and the class schedule offers plenty of flexibility. I highly recommend the Black Belt Academy to any parent looking for a great martial arts program for their kids.“

“We’ve been going for the last 3 years, and I have nothing but the highest praise for this company. They teach a wide spectrum of martial arts, such as boxing, jujitsu, and taekwondo. The team is wonderful, patient, and passionate.“

“Master Velez and instructors dedicate their time to growing not just the martial artist, but the overall character and growth of the student.Through forms, weapons, sparring, and physical conditioning, the student acquires a greater respect for themselves and others, promoting self-discipline and confidence.They do all of this while having fun!!“

“Just an awesome school. Dr Sorbi teaching style is passionate yet relaxed, his experience as a professional educator clearly shows. The club generally, is welcome both to beginners and those with some experience.“

“The black belts here are literally cracked out of their minds, their kicks are so fast and they land almost at will. Its not like the average show up and get a little bit uncomfortable type beat. I imagine anyone who comes here and go gym could fold the average timtothy“

“NoVa TSD has been an essential support for the TSD Club I attend in Maryland. Their instructors, out of the goodness of their hearts, have sacrificed their time and energy to help us with our testing and have come up and lead day-long clinics. The love that they have shown us through their knowledge has been an inspiration to me and to my club. I also attend their monthly instructor training and have found it to be extremely helpful for me to develop the holistic approach to martial arts training in mind, body and spirit. I highly recommend any association with these people!Carl S., First Degree Black Belt“

“My daughter has really loved this dojo and how they treat her so nicely and have respect towards each other sine the first day she started. This dojo has developed her social skills,selfdiscipline,physical health, and developed her personal responsibility, self confidence.Since she has joined the class I saw her grow mentally and physically. This dojo treats her like family and I would definitely recommend this dojo for any new comers.“

“Master Jasmine was very patient and helped our 3.5 year old boy to try out a class. My son is a bit too young and not disciplined enough so he did not do too well taking directions. So we will have to try out again in couple months when he is ready.However, Master Jasmine took her time to help, guide as best as she can to direct my son. I hope in a later date, my son could take the Tiger class without issues.“
