I have two kids ages 5 and 7 in separate programs and they both love it. But I wanted to post what I saw at a practice a few weeks ago. Master/Coach Scott caught my eye and he was with a new white belt student who seemed very unsure and upset about his first practice. I thought the little one was going to give up but Coach Scott would not allow it and in one of the most positive ways he explained it, showed it and kept at it. Within 15 minutes the new student was smiling, laughing, participating confidently and I expect very tired and ready for a full nights sleep. As a parent, I learned a lot that day and I am grateful for Coach/Master Scott also.

So I haven't been to Excel for a good while, but I would just like to say that while I was there, I absolutely loved it. Something about me is that Im not one for martial arts, but once I had joined this program I fell in love. The instructors where kind and friendly. They helped and guided and pushed me to become the person that I am today. I highly recommend this program! Thank you guys!

We have had my daughter enrolled at Excel for the last 2 1/2years. She has flourished since starting classes as a Little Ninja and is continuing to grow as an advanced Brown Belt. She is in the leadership program, assisting instructors with Little Ninjas Class', and now the combatives class. The instructors are great and continue to hold these kids to a high standard. We highly recommend bringing your kids to Excel TKD especially, if you value raising disciplined, strong, and independent young individuals.

Excel Taekwondo is a great martial arts studio. I have enrolled both of my daughters there over the last year (youth and little ninjas). Its is a family owned and operated studio with an incredible staff that teaches their students not only Taekwondo but also discipline, hardwork, respect and life skills. I am so grateful to have found Excel Taekwondo to be able to have my daughters learn self defense. My Wife has also taken their women’s only self defense course that is offered once a year and she really enjoyed it and learned a lot. Excel also hosts a ton of other activities outside of the normal classes ( kids night out, black belt performances, community picnics, etc.) throughout the year.

My kids love it here. The one who craves order and organization thrives here and the gifted one that needs a challenge is also fulfilled. Great organization for the whole family.

Update: It's been a little over a year now and I can see the confidence difference in my kiddos!
