I was impressed on day one with both the instructors one of the owners I met. As a middle school teacher, I recognized right away that this martial arts school knew child development and knew how to motivate kids of various ages. When we started my kids were 6 and 10; a year and a half in, my kids have rapidly developed advanced coordination, confidence and an enhanced level of personal responsibility. My daughter is now in the leadership program and a TA in the “Moogies” program for the youngest students. The entire staff is friendly, professional, and loves their job!! They seem to really take great joy in helping kids achieve their taekwondo goals, and relating martial arts training to excellence in other aspects of their lives. We are very impressed with the program and people at Legacy. Master Mr Neitzell and Master Mrs Neitzell are stellar leaders!!
We have been party of the Legacy Family for 2 1/2 years now. That is truly what it is, a family. The instructor s and owners are amazing and the positive environment builds so much confidence. I have loved watching the kids grow over our time there. I highly recommend trying them out!
My 7 year old granddaughter Casey Mary, almost 8 years old, has already spent 1/2 her life at Legacy Martial Arts. I believe they have taught her so much there like Discipline, respect, patience, self defense. The atmosphere there is awesome, everybody is kind and are eager to see their students succeed. I absolutely recommend Legacy Martial Arts for anybody at any age that is considering taking some classes.
