My daughter has attended Master Lee's since just after it opened and we could not be more pleased…read more Master Lee is an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher. More than just focusing on the mechanics of Tae Kwon Do, he emphasizes the core principals of the sport: responsibility, focus, hardwork, and discipline. In addition to taking classes, my daughter has attended summer and various school vacation camps. She has always had a blast and enjoys the various field trips they arrange. Her experience at Master Lee's has been nothing but positive.

For several years, I've wondered why so many people drive around with these Super Kicks magnets on…read moretheir cars. Well, a few weeks ago, our daughter's classmate invited her to a birthday party at Super Kicks Ashburn. I didn't think she would like it, but she loved it and was smiling the entire time. Signed our daughter and her little brother up for an intro class. Our son isn't ready yet, but our daughter is still loving it, and we think our son will slowly warm up to it. What makes Super Kicks special enough for everyone to drive around with these magnets on their cars? I think it's the welcoming and fun atmosphere, combined with a noticeable effort to encourage the kids and families beyond the scheduled class time. Give Super Kicks a try!

Hidy Ochiai Karate stood out above them all! Their classes go beyond the regular karate classes that other martial arts places provide. Here, they also do Kobudo which we learned is the use of ancient weapons! Trust me, your kids will go bonkers for this class!! It's taught in an extremely safe way, but still makes the kids feel like ninja superstars! I kind of want to take it myself :D Our daughter also did the summer camp this past summer and she loved it! She came home with real calligraphy paintings! Another thing that pushes them to the top is that they have Master Hidy Ochiai himself who comes down from New York to do special teachings with the kids each month. Look him up on YouTube and watch him slice an apple on someone's neck .... wait for it .... blindfolded! His skills are incredible and he is incredible with the kids as well. This school is in no competition with any other Martial Arts place because it's THAT good! I want to write a novel on here, lol, but I won't. Just one last thing to note: Sensei Winkler himself is AHmazing with the kids too. The way he talks and interacts with the kids makes them listen and have fun. I've sat and watched him a number of times when my daughter is in class. He's structured and fun, which is exactly what my daughter needs! Sensei Winkler is an incredible teacher because he has a lifetime of experience and many trophies from national Championship tournaments! You have to at the very least come to their free class on Saturdays!

I caked to ask if I could drop in the 3hrs evening open mat. The Prof answered the call & welcomed me to join his students. Both Gi & NoGi were welcome and there's no Gi color requirement. Those were my only concerns. I was able to roll for most of the 3hrs until people started resting. Only about 7 people showed up but as a Purple Belt I was glad to roll with their Brown Belt a few times, both Gi & NoGi, as well as a few tough Blue & White Belts. Everyone was friendly and considerate rolling partners. I definitely recommend that you drop in if you can.

I've been at GB Ashburn for about two months, and so far the experience was awesome, and kind of…read morelife-changing! Initially, I was exploring different martial arts gyms for my 3-year-old daughter. While my daughter was pretty wary and didn't want to commit, I got a really good feeling the first time we observed the class and decided to join - And my gut feeling was right! There are three things that I love most about this gym: 1. People. Everyone, from the professors/coaches to the peers, are wonderful. The professors are all super friendly, approachable, and are always great at answering questions. The peers are respectful and not overly aggressive (in a hurtful-injury kinda way), and the upper belts are always happy to give pointers when asked (or when I look desperately clueless). I'll admit that I find grappling sports extremely intimidating, but everyone at the gym is so kind that I was able to continue going despite feeling super intimidated. Also, there are so many students, but the professors always remember people's names. That's amazing! Big shout out to Professor Dana, Professor Rafael, and Professor Thiago for being awesome. 2. The environment. The physical environment is clean, but more importantly, I find the (non-physical) environment incredibly welcoming. There are areas for kids to hang out when parents are taking classes, plenty of chairs and sofa, and staff are just so, so kind and nice to the kids!! As a mom who's hoping to get her 3-yo interested in bjj, I really appreciate this set up. 3. The classes. There are morning classes, middle-of-the-day classes, evening classes, and Saturday classes. There are classes for kids, teens, adults, and FEMALES. This variety allows me to attend classes with a wonky work schedule and learn from different professors and peers. More importantly, the classes are very organized, such that when I attend classes almost randomly throughout the week, different professors are all teaching similar techniques that build off of a streamlined curriculum, and I don't feel that I must attend classes on a regular schedule (e.g., M/W at 6:30am). I also love that there are position-specific training toward the latter part of every class. It's intimidating, but I learn a lot from these practices! I guess I could go on, but I'll just say that I highly recommend this gym!
