    GENERAL ASSESSMENT Our overall assessment is that Shaolin…read moreInstitute does an amazingly successful job fulfilling its promise as a learning experience for both the body and mind. As we have so far experienced it, Shaolin Institute indeed teaches a "way of life" in which students can experience gratifying physical achievement, whether in Tai Chi or Kung Fu, while also exercising and expanding mindfulness. One of the most appealing aspects of Shaolin Institute is the frequent reference before and after classes regarding how specific cultural, historical, medical, and scientific achievements are directly relevant for learning and appreciating martial arts. TEACHING ASSESSMENT It is impressive that Shaolin Institute exceeds expectations in basically every category used to evaluate teachers. Below are our summaries of Shaolin Institute's multifaceted teaching strengths. CURRICULUM * SI teachers follow the SI curriculum. * SI teachers choose activities for each student relevant to the SI curriculum and each student's level of achievement. * When feasible, SI teachers sometimes helpfully group students together to learn and practice as a group the forms they have previously learned. INSTRUCTION * SI teachers provide direction so that each student knows what to focus on during class. * SI teachers present new forms clearly and logically, and helpfully demonstrate new forms. * SI teachers provide feedback and re-teach forms when necessary. Teachers provide opportunities for students to practice new forms both with and without supervision. MOTIVATION * SI teachers show genuine concern for the students. * SI teachers project a positive, encouraging tone for the classroom experience. * SI teachers establish a level of difficulty, suited for each student's level, which encourages success. SI teachers provide good verbal praise, as well as critique as needed. COMMUNICATION * SI teachers always demonstrate enthusiasm in what they are teaching. * SI teachers explain and demonstrate forms clearly. * SI teachers respond graciously and substantively to questions. EXPECTATIONS * SI teachers communicate expectations to students. * SI teachers listen to students' feedback during class and adjust their teaching pace and content accordingly. * SI teachers encourage students to participate inextracurricular community opportunities, which isimportant for the students' confidence as well as the school's exposure. METHODOLOGY & MATERIALS * SI teachers often vary how they conduct classes, for example by describing the forms, including their origins, applications, etc., and/or by physically demonstrating the forms. Both methods are helpful, especially for students who learn in different ways. * SI teachers sometimes provide supplemental resources, such as video recordings of the classes, which can be exceptionally helpful for students who want to practice at home. EVALUATIVE ACTIVITIES * SI teachers monitor and give feedback on student progressduring each individual class. * SI teachers give oral evaluative comments, as well as sometimes grades or scores. * SI teachers are available for and sometimes proactively create opportunities for one-on-one progress discussions with students. CLASS ENVIRONMENT * SI teachers clearly communicate requirements for attitude and behavior, notably by emphasizing the SI student creed and the rituals of class beginnings and endings. TEACHER-STUDENT INTERACTIONS * SI teachers make an effort to know each student as an individual. * SI teachers routinely work to promote positive self-image in students. * SI teachers routinely create a classroom climate in which students are encouraged to grow and assume personal responsibility for their growth. LEADERSHIP BEHAVIOR * SI teachers are observed routinely cooperating graciously with their teaching peers, demonstrating authentic respect for one another. * SI teachers are often observed sharing ideas and methods with their fellow teachers. * SI teachers are observed regularly seeking to advance their own growth. This continuing education, observed by the students, is motivating to the students and demonstrates how we are all learning and growing.

    "Taekwondo! Giyap! Haiyah!" You'll be shouting with excitement too after a class with master Song…read moreat Songmoodo Martial Arts College. Song Moo Do Martial Arts College has an excellent martial arts studio and workout facility to learn martial arts in a safe, fun, and disciplined environment. Master Song is a true professional and 9th degree black belt Grand Master who knows how to teach and train young and adult students alike. Some of the different techniques they teach include: Chi Gong Hapkido Judo Karate Kendo Kick Boxing Kung Fu Taekwondo Tai Chi Yoga Song Moo Do Martial Arts College is a very honest and professional taekwondo academy which goes beyond simply attacking and defending. Master Song teaches a holistic approach to life balance and finding inner peace while also teaching the art of self defense. In addition to punching and kicking students are taught how to use weapons such as the Bo and Nunchakus. The one negative I could see about this place is the restroom can get pretty rough and so a bit odoriferous but aside from that the taekwondo dojo is clean and well kept. The prices are reasonable and I have heard good things about their after school program and group classes. I have been a student of his private class where I have been able to train one on one with Grandmaster Song. Parking is plentiful and as a final point I want to say that Grandmaster Song is very skilled at developing discipline and helping students from all walks of life. 5 Yelp stars for sure. Thank you Grandmaster Song and have a very positive day.

Yes, he may have the "rank" but I have no idea how he got it....just look at how old most high dan black belts are fot starters. Then, his classes. Its glorified daycare. His instructors are jokes. Horrible technique. I moved on. Probably going back to mutual instructors or to.bjj Stay away from this guy.

His programs are engaging for all age groups and he wants to help everyone improve and make progress towards their goals in the martial arts. He has lineage as a student of Hanshi Pachivas in the Shuri-Ryu style of karate. His dojo offers karate and jiu-jitsu classes. Our kids look forward to Karate Camp each summer and the other events at the dojo throughout the year. The dojo offers great birthday parties for kids too (best party spot we have used!). He cultivates a culture of respect and the attitude that everyone can learn something from anyone else, regardless of their belt rank. Students encourage each other and are welcoming to new students. His classes help you to improve your physical and mental fitness, while learning practical skills for self-defense if you ever had to use it, all in a supportive atmosphere with great camaraderie.

He's now eager to follow the instructors commands and attend when in the beginning he was scared to get out there because he was kicked out of the other class which said it was his age group but there were way older kids who appeared to have gone before. Dojo classes truly are kids his own age and a mostly kids that have only began within a few months or two but all still young and on same developmental level. Very impressed with their ethics and interactions with the children.

Coach Lamb is friendly, yet stern and knows how to get the best out of the kids. It's really wonderful to see how engaged my son is with this. Around my house, it's easier to get him to be respectful and listen when telling him to clean his room, get ready for school/bed, etc.....and the fact that he now says "yes m'am" without being prompted is pretty darned awesome, I must say. The staff here cares, and it really shows!
