Our 11 granddaughter has been a student of Master Chang for 4 years. She has gained skills both mentally and physically all under Master Chang's guidance and mentorship. Respect, promptness, attentiveness, strength, flexibility and confidence are just a few of the attributes every parent wants a child to attain. We highly recommend Chang Karate school as a serious contender to commercialized franchises.

Grandmaster Chang and Master Cindy along with all the other teachers are absolutely amazing. Our daughter is thriving- her confidence, focus, and listening have improved 10-fold since starting. She is always excited to go to class and leaves just as excited. I honestly can't say enough good things about this school and the impact it has had on our 4 year old. If you're looking for somewhere to enroll, this is it. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Do you believe in miracles? I don't believe it because I know that miracles really exist, especially if the miracle happened in your own life, with your child, so it is thanks to Chang karate school in Warminster. Grandmaster Chang and his educational system miraculously transformed and improved the abilities and inner space of my daughter's personality. When my daughter was five years old, preschool teachers told me that my daughter had learning issues, behavioral stuff, a short attention span, and all of it. Information that my daughter had a massive problem with focus shocked me. So I had only one way to change the situation, so I began looking for a school of Martial Art to improve her focus. I read a lot of beautiful advertisements about different karate classes around my neighborhood but I tried to check them by visiting there. So most of them looked like clubs of karate lovers, but not as a severe sport of martial Art. I checked almost all courses of martial Art offered around, and I almost gave up on finding any way for my daughter to improve her focus. I was disappointed because the classes I mainly saw were cheat-chatting, no judo, no kata, and no solid physical activity, but only birthday parties and awards. I already despaired of finding something honorable for my daughter but once I accidentally chanced upon the sign on York Road in Warminster - "Chang Karate School." So with suspicion, I tried to look at Chang Karate School. Wow! What I saw when I arrived at that school, blew my mind, so that was the school that I was looking for, so there was real karate art!In class, among students with white, yellow, green, and red belts there were several training boys and girls of 13-18 with black belts on their kimonos; and their bodies were dangerous weapons. All of them were focused and disciplined, their bodies were flexible and robust. Their kicks, movements, and state of mind were pretty impressive. Grandmaster Chang invited my daughter to attend a free trial class. Grandmaster Chang is a teacher from God because he absolutely knew how to fix a problem with my daughter, so he developed a unique right curriculum for her. In the past, Grandmaster Chang was a professional fighter and an army trainer in Korea. He's the bearer of Tan So Do knowledge (Tan So Do - the name of the Art), Eastern wisdom, and profound ethical principles. My daughter enrolled to begin school without hesitation, and I was not mistaken about the choice. My daughter got progress and success, so as a result, she improved her focus! So now in elementary school, my daughter is in regular classes with regular children and no longer needs special courses. Teachers asked me what we were doing to improve her focus, and strongly recommend to continue to do that activity. But the tangible result is her math improvement; her school testing rate jumped from absolute zero (it wasn't even F because before, she could not begin her tests) to A! Her problem with a focus completely disappeared. It's a miracle. She is singing, playing guitar, reading thick chapter books by herself, doing a nice drawing, and even beginning to play chess (this game needs increased attention). It's a miracle. But the way to success is not easy, so we spent four long years getting the first result. I sincerely appreciate Grandmaster Chang for my daughter for his hard work to change her and my life. P.S. I monitored my daughter's progress for six months and was impressed by her development, so after that, I enrolled by myself. But it's my personal transformation and it's a different story.Vitaly K.
