“I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to you for the wonderful training and support you have provided to my 6-year-old daughter. Since joining your club, she has not only made great progress in her Taekwondo skills but has also grown in confidence, discipline, and focus.

Your dedication, patience, and encouragement have played a big part in helping her achieve her recent goals. It is truly inspiring to see how much she has learned and how proud she feels about her accomplishments. The positive environment and expert guidance at your club have made a lasting impact on her, and I am deeply grateful for that.

Thank you again for your commitment to your students and for helping them grow not just as martial artists, but as individuals.“

“The Self- defense class Shi fu Owen was fantastic! He gives each student a chance to practice one- on- one, and gave solutions to possible scenarios in the event we have to defend ourselves. Great Mommy and me bonding time, we'll be returning!“

“This gym is absolutely incredible from a few standpoints.
- Equipment is next level especially if you’re on the serious side of training. All type of machines for legs and back which is always a big plus and tons of attachments for cable work.
- The staff/ Trainers welcomed me there as if I have been training there for years. A couple of them came up to introduce themselves, super helpful and willing to answer any questions.
- Day pass System was easy, a barcode that allows you to pay online and sign the wavier.
- vending machine with all types of pre-workout, protein shakes, protein related snacks and bars, and hydration supplements.

I’m not sure I’ve ever written a review before but I was just that impressed and think anyone who loves to train and especially bodybuilders should visit this gym.“

“This is a great place to take a once a week self defense class. Being almost a senior citizen, I was wary of what would happen. I've learned a lot of good basic moves in just two months. Mike the head instructor and others are great trainers and very patient with new people.“

“Joe, Caleb, Pat and all of the instructors are welcoming, helpful, modest and inclusive. Your peer students are also helpful. I'm always learning something new with each class. My initial plan was to just learn the fundamentals but I'm planning on staying long-term for the value of the instructions, repeating good habits and sparring/rolling with peers. The gym also has plenty of space so it never feels crowded especially compared to other gyms. Amazing place, thanks Joe and team!“

“We’ve been attending for about a year now, and I can’t say enough good things. My kids have grown so much in confidence, discipline, and strength. Master Yun and the entire staff are wonderful—supportive, patient, and motivating. We also recently hosted a birthday party here, and it was fantastic! The instructors kept kids of all ages engaged, and everyone had a great time. I highly recommend both the classes and the party venue!“

“Great place for new students to old students. Everyone is great here, coaches and students. Also, fantastic sensei ??“

“I trained with Garza Shihan for years and had to move away. I miss the warm and welcoming atmosphere. He’s so good with kids and the space is safe for women as you can tell by his many female students who have been around for years. I feel better living alone after training with him.“

“I started my 5 year old during fall 2021 and he utterly enjoys the training. He started in Capoeira Saturdays and Sundays, and just decided to begin Judo and Karate this week. The instructors are top-notch and ready to teach. Also-- you can do ALL the martial arts for one fee. There's no where in Chicago with that type of affordability. - Dr. V.“
