My children have been going to Pride for over a year now. My son does both Judo and TaeKwonDo. My daughter does TaeKwonDo. The atmosphere at Pride is very much an inclusive environment. My children feel a sense of belonging and encouragement they don't seem to feel at some other places they have done club sports. I like that I know exactly what is expected of the kids at each belt level so I can make sure they're practicing the right things. They are always excited to get on the mat and work on new skills. The Masters really know each and every child they work with and make sure to highlight the child's strengths instead of only focusing on those areas that need improvement. Also, the dojang is very clean and comfortable.
I can't say enough good things about Pride Martial Arts. It's not only a fantastic place to learn some amazing skills, but it's also a very close knit group of people that are like family to one another. Masters Ron and Brandon are great teachers and will always take extra time whenever a student needs it . Very happy our kids have a place in the Pride family.
First the facility is clean, and big and second the masters are kid friendly
My son has been attending Pride for two years and I couldn't be happier. I've watched my son go from being a shy child to being more confident. Things are not always easy for my son, sometimes the exercises are hard but he never gives up. Master Ron and Master Branden encourage students to try their best and to never give up. They celebrate the small accomplishments as well as the large one. Students at Pride are taught more than martial arts. They are taught respect, responsibility, perseverance, and courage. Every class you see them helping and cheering on one another. If you're looking for a martial arts home where your child will learn not only martial arts but skills that will help to become the boys and girls they are meant to be, the Pride Martial Arts is where you should be. Not only does Pride offer kids classes, they offer adult cardio-kickboxing classes are fun and quite the workout! Prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is like no other! I’m looking forward to returning to class soon! Come join our Pride.
I can't say enough great things about Master Ron and Master Brandon and everyone at Pride. My 5 yr old son started last year in Taekwondo and has enjoyed every minute of it since. When we started we where nervous because he has struggled with sensory issues since toddlerhood. He had a hard time controlling his body and focusing long enough to follow specific instructions. We started at Pride with the hope that martial arts would help him. Pride provides classes that are both age appropriate and fun! My son has not only learned how to better focus and follow directions he's also learned better teamwork, self control, and discipline. He no longer struggles as much with controlling his body and following direction we've watched him grow and transform and we couldn't be happier. Since watching our son grow and learn over this past year and seeing the pride and joy he has in himself everytime he learns a new skill, earns a new tip or promotes to a new belt our 3 year old daughter now also is part of the Pride family and she loves every second of it. Sometimes it feels like we live and breath Taekwondo but seeing what its done for my kids i wouldn't have it any other way. We are so glad to be apart of the pride family!
