“My daughter started here when she was 12, and has been taking for almost 2 years. She has met so many great people and friends and it has really helped with her self confidence. She loves that they incorporate karate, self defense, wrestling skills, and other things! Last fall my 6 year old son begged me to start letting him take classes too, so he’s been going ever since. He has a blast while learning all kinds of “ninja” skills. Everyone working there is so nice and great with all ages of kids. I highly recommend giving them a try if you’re looking for a martial arts studio either for ongoing classes or birthday parties etc. they really know how to teach, engage and entertain!“

“My son had his 7th birthday party here and we are SO happy with how it all turned out. The process was easy and all we had to do was show up with a cake! The owners took care of everything else- decorations, food, drinks, activities for the kids, and the goodie bags! All of the kids had a BLAST. Our favorite parts were that each kid got to break a board and our son got to cut his cake with a real sword! He thought it was SO cool! They even gave our son a birthday gift! It was such a great experience and we highly recommend them for your next birthday party!“

Students are: Children, Teens, Moms, Dads, Sisters, Brothers, Friends and Grandparents. All the CITs, Instructors and Mr. Barnes truly care about their students. I will forever be grateful for the lifelong friendships and lessons learned. UpRising is leading families and the next generation to achieve amazing things! ?“

“This has been the best and most positive experience for Jax. He continues to learn and grow and we appreciate the everything y’all are doing.“

“This is a wonderful authentic Martial Arts school. From the moment I took the trial lesson I knew I was in the right place. It was exactly what I was looking for. A school with a passionate teacher (Sifu David) that passes on his valuable knowledge in a compassionate, individualized manner, adjusted to each student's level, strengths and weaknesses. A great leader that inspires you to strive to reach your goals and gets the best out of you. The students are welcoming and very helpful. They share their knowledge as well and support you in your path. It's a wonderful community. The perfect place to learn Tai Chi and Kung Fu from a body, mind and spirit perspective. Highly recommended!“

“I am a Black Belt at US Tae Kwon Do Colony Place. It is a great place if you want your children to learn valuable qualities such as honesty, integrity, and perseverance. Even the parents can join too for a fun experience with their children and also to learn basic self defense. The kids are very nice and helpful and Master James is very kind and helpful as well. You will learn how to stronger, smarter and know how to get out of tough situations if needed. The classes mix in fun games with tough training and knowledge. Overall this is one of the best businesses I have ever participated in. This is a fun and awesome place and I highly recommend it to any parents looking for extracurricular activities for their child.2nd Dan Black Belt“

“I have been a student at two other taekwondo schools, but Han's Taekwondo and Dragon Championship are by far the best!! I wish my daughter and I started taking classes at Han's sooner... No other teacher has spent the time we needed to improve our skills like Master Lee and the instructors at Han's. Not only that, they are teaching in such a positive and constructive manner so they make you feel like you are a part of a larger family. They are masters of their craft and taekwondo athletes who work equally with every student to help them improve their skills. My daughter and I really enjoy taking classes at Han's!“

“I took my son here and he had a blast! Awesome spot with many talent! Would recommend here for your kid if he’s interested in martial arts“
