We first started coming to Montgomery Karate just in hopes of helping our 6 year old son hoping to improve his confidence and increasing his muscle tone. Little did we know that this place would become like family to us! Master Quinn and Jo Kyo Underwood are hands down the best ever! They have not only done what we were hoping to find, but have given us so much more. Our son has gained respect and a drive for his new found passion. Kathleen is always a step ahead of us and keeping us clearly updated on what we need to know. You won't find a better place to help you kids along in life than this! read more

"When I moved to Austin after living in Michigan, I learned that there were no Soo Bahk Do studios in the Austin area.  I contacted studios in the Houston and San Antonio areas.  Guinn Sa Bom Nim responded to my e-mail and offered an alternate training schedule.  His instruction, flexibility, encouragement, support, and patience are one of the many reasons I chose him as my instructor. I have trained with Guinn Sa Bom Nim since November 2007.  He has been a positive influence in my life.  I would not be the Soo Bahk Do practitioner I am today without Guin Sa Bom Nim."

I had been trying to get my son to start training at Montgomery Karate for two years before he finally agreed to try a class. I'm happy we waited until he was ready because for the last four years he has taken just about every single class available to him. He enjoys his training immensely. He started to teach here a year and half ago and is the Tiger Tot instructor. Getting him involved in martial arts is one of the best decisions I've made. Master Guinn is great with his students and every single student gets his attention. He doesn't just teach a martial art. He teaches Discipline and Respect among many other values. Master Guinn's students get so much more out of his class than just learning how to defend themselves!! I also started training here two years ago myself! Whether you're looking for classes for your child or yourself you will love this studio and everything you will get from training here! read more

Our two oldest sons had previously been involved involved in another style of martial arts when they were young and since moving to the Lake Conroe area we searched for some time for another studio. At a time when there is a focus on cage fights, Mixed Martial Arts and related styles, we were looking for a studio that didn't just teach an art but discipline as well as a value system. As soon as my oldest son and I met Sa Bom Nim Guinn, I knew that we had found the right place. During the past 5 years, our older sons have progressed to the Dan ranks (black belt) and their younger brother has now joined as well and hopes to one day be able to teach along side his brothers. When we found Montgomery Karate we were looking a for a strong system of values and what we discovered was a lifestyle. read more
