    Best Taekwondo School in New Jersey!  If you are in or around the Newark, NJ area, you should…read morecertainly stop in to say hello to Vinny.  I have known Vinny a long time now in the Martial Arts world and he has taught me much of my current craft, self defense and overall exercise skills.  Such a gentle soul with a kick that could bust a door clear off its hinges!   You will instantly see he keeps his office, exercise room and studio area very, very clean.  This is something I'm picky about as I've seen many other places to train all over the country that are completely falling apart and reek of High School Gym Locker room odors... but not here at Team Raposa Taekwondo.  Easily accessible through public transit all over Newark and Vinny really cares about this neighborhood from the bottom of his heart, since he spent much of his life growing up and working here.  Also, this spot is English, Spanish and Portuguese language friendly, good for all fighting tongues!  While I was traveling abroad in Taiwan he was even nice enough to send me videos of training ideas to stay fit while abroad.  He will always be planning tournaments and competitions for Taekwondo which is especially great for all the young kids! All in all, I highly recommend going here if any one is trying to grow their Martial Arts Skills, support a local Newark small business, stay in shape and excel in Taekwondo... Team Raposa is the place to do it.  Vinny will make you feel right at home just as he always has for me!

    I found this place through their Open Houses on Friday nights for tae kwondo (to possibly sign up…read moremy 4 year old daughter), not knowing they have cardio kickboxing in this place. Gina who is a very active member of this martial arts center gave an inspiring speech about her family going here for tae kwon do and her going here 4 x a week for cardio kickboxing and lost a ton of weight. So, I took a free trial class and liked it alot....sweat alot to rocking music! I was surprised we do not wear shoes to do cardio kickboxing, just your feet. What is the cardio-kickboxing routine? Stretching for say 10 minutes and cardio kickboxing for 25 minutes , a 2 minutes water break and 15 minutes working on the pads and crunches and another 8 minutes for stretching. My daughter on the other hand wasn't crazy about tae kwondo but I think it's because of the discipline. I saw her and she was pretty good at it. I think this place is great for kids to build self-esteem and do some martial arts moves. You may be concerned that if kids learn this, they may do some violent moves on others. That is not the case as I was interviewing several parents at the place. If anything, it made the child more confident and respectful to others. They could defend themselves if necessary. The instructors or Masters we call them are gold Olympians on tae kwondo and teach cardio kickboxing classes. They train some serious black belt tae kwon do students for future Olympians if you want to go there. You don't mess with these guys...they're good what they do. Don't be intimidated, they are really nice Korean guys....English is so-so but you can understand what they're saying. It's a family owned business practically. One of the Masters is a father of 2 boys, one 3 years old and one about 20 months old. His wife works all the marketing, administrative and accounting work. They're such a cute family. The place is relatively clean as everybody who enters into this place must take their shoes off and place them on the shelves. Price is $99 unlimited attendance or $60 a month for a month once a week. That's me as the only time I could make this class is 8-9am on Saturday mornings before my crazy schedule of classes with my 4 year old. You could bring your child to have him or her watch you kickbox. I did this but felt uneasy as part of me is watching her behave nicely on the sidelines and not concentrating on the kickbox moves.

    Started my son first and now my daughter is there. Master Kwon is great with the children! My kids…read moreare learning confidence and how to Defend themselves. Highly recommended!!!!!
