It’s clear that Yoo’s isn’t just about martial arts—it’s about building character, strong relationships, and a sense of belonging.

“I cannot say enough great things about my experience with Coach Anthony! If you’re on the lookout for a weight loss training coach who checks all the boxes, look no further. Coach Anthony is a gem who not only guides you in losing weight but also makes the entire process enjoyable.

From the very first session, it was clear that Coach Anthony is dedicated to helping clients achieve their goals. His workouts are challenging yet incredibly rewarding, designed to push your limits and deliver fantastic results. He has an amazing ability to tailor exercises and ensure you’re working on the right techniques and form, so you’re getting the most out of every move.

What really sets Coach Anthony apart is his deep knowledge of the body’s functionality. He educates you on how different muscles work, especially the ones you might not usually engage, ensuring a holistic approach to fitness. This level of understanding extends to nutrition; he created a functional nutritional plan tailored to my specific needs and goals, helping me make meaningful changes in my diet.

Not to mention, his humor and positive attitude make even the toughest workouts something to look forward to. It’s like having a coach and a cheerleader rolled into one, keeping you motivated every step of the way.

Thanks to Coach Anthony, I’m not just seeing results on the scale and in the mirror, but I’m also armed with the knowledge and confidence to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I highly recommend his services to anyone serious about their weight loss and fitness journey. Who knew shedding pounds could come with so many laughs along the way? ??“

“I started training at Barro Vermelho 8 years ago after moving to DC. I had done a few years of capoeira regional before. I looked around and tried classes at a couple of places, but ultimately chose BV because of the great community. Friendly students, and a very open, non-hierarchical or stand-offish group. Mestre Bomba is very accessible, and easy to talk to. Also very relaxed compared to some capoeira mestres out there.If you're looking for a great workout, with community and self defense, this is it.“

“I want to give a major shout out to Trulynd Hall & Hannah Lee from Be Ryong Martial Arts studio in Alexandria. They went above and beyond to show our campers an amazing demonstration of basic TaeKwonDo skills. Highly recommend their instruction, patience, and expertise!“

“Josh Sensei is a passionate and knowledgeable instructor.With a keen eye for detail and a drive for progression, you will be in the same good hands that I have been in since the middle of 2019. Between the training atmosphere and the various dojo get togethers, outside of COVID-19 times of course, Josh Sensei has bolstered a welcoming atmosphere that anyone willing to come in and dedicate the time to training should enjoy their stay. On top of this, he is willing to go out of his way to answer questions both inside and out of class and has even provided extra trainings at the sole cost of his time on special occasions. Come prepared to learn and work hard as those efforts will yield gains in yourself that you have yet to know as the value of the training provided is well worth the cost.“

“My relationship with Lead By Example Martial Arts is not that of a student, but rather of someone with a business relationship with the school's leadership. Our interactions with the leaders--particularly Janet--have been great. They are professional, responsive, innovative, kind, and extremely passionate about providing their students with the best experience and tools. Based on our professional relationship, I know they care deeply for their students and their experience. I would recommend them to anyone looking for martial arts instruction in the area.“
