In addition to teaching Taekwondo, Mr. Chang is also teaching these young men and women values. He does so with patience, a smile and structure that is appropriate for teaching my wiggly young one.

He had recently experienced some bullying issues at school, and we were searching for a martial arts studio that could help him build confidence while teaching valuable life skills. From the moment we walked in, Master Chris made us feel welcome. His approach goes far beyond Tae Kwon Do. He focuses on building respect, discipline, and self-confidence in every student. Master Chris has a true gift for motivating kids. He knows how to balance firm instruction with encouragement, creating an environment where students feel supported and capable. Not sure why we didn't start sooner! Most definitely recommend Victory Tae Kwon Do!

The classes are well-structured, challenging but fun, and we've noticed significant improvements in both our children's' physical fitness, confidence, and mental focus. I also love how they emphasizes discipline, respect, and personal growth--qualities that extend far beyond the studio! Highly recommend!

My son seemed to enjoy it but did not partake like the others since he was tired. There was no wiggle room on time since we were in the trial phase. Price is $200 a month with a 6 month commitment with initiation fee, $230 if you want to go month to month. Since it seemed like our kiddo wasn't quite into it yet and maybe too young, we didn't sign up. I will say though, the establishment is clean. The instructors are attentive and it really requires discipline for the kids. We would consider trying again at a later time but the price tag just seems too high.

He started as a 4-yo and will be turning 6 in a couple months. What he is learning through IL-DO Taekwondo are not just benefiting him at home, school or in his other sports, but in his overall development. He is learning more than Taekwondo, he is learning to be a good human. To date, we have recommended IL-DO to 5 of his friends at school and from his baseball team. All have joined and seem to be enjoying and growing with the program. I recommend you give your son or daughter a chance to experience this program and take the introductory class and see it for yourself.

We have had a wonderful experience with Elite Fitness Taekwondo in Irvine. My daughter started here…read morewhen she was about 4 years old, and she is now 7. Over the past few years, we have seen tremendous growth in her confidence, discipline, and perseverance. In the beginning, she wasn't very interested, and there was a point when she even wanted to quit because the forms were becoming more challenging. I spoke with Master Choi about it, and he was incredibly supportive. The instructors slowed down the form practice to help her better follow along. With patience, encouragement, and consistent practice, she eventually mastered it -- and that moment was incredibly meaningful for her. Now, my daughter proactively practices her forms on her own, and Taekwondo has become part of her daily life. Through Taekwondo, she has learned not only physical skills, but also important life values: never giving up, respect, discipline, and self-control. Master Choi, Master Tracy, and all the black belt instructors consistently reinforce these lessons. They are firm when needed, but always kind and encouraging. You can genuinely see that they care about each child's growth. What I appreciate most is seeing the kids truly enjoy the classes while learning in a positive environment. We are very grateful to be part of ILDO TKD and highly recommend Elite Fitness Taekwondo to other families.
