Master Parks provides a perfect combination of discipline, exercise and fun. Our girls absolutely love taekwondo. The instructors are really good with the kids. Including those children on the spectrum. The first class is free and provides the instructors an opportunity to assess the child, and allows you an opportunity to see if your child would enjoy. Our girls just had there first color belt testing, and it blows my mind that a 3 year old is breaking boards and practicing at home. Strongly recommended!

He was involved in numerous activities at MPBBA, including the demo team and worked there as an instructor. So we have extensive experience with this place. Unfortunately, MPBBA has gone dramatically downhill over the last 4 years or so, mostly due to the actions of the owner - Master Steve Park. The school used to have some incredible masters - Master Kang and Master Yoo; however, Master Kang now has his own school and Master Yoo teaches at another location. MPBBA was great for smaller kids, but significantly loses its value as students become better and older, as there is really no one there to teach them. Master Steve Park himself is a horrible instructor these days, who enjoys the sound of his own voice more than actually teaching taekwondo skills and does not mind screaming at students. He was even more nasty with the older kids, wasting time with stupid life lessons (such as "who needs college?") and screaming at them in rage when they did something wrong. My son made the final decision to quit after he could no longer put up with Master Steve Park and his antics and after being screamed at with rage and hatred after missing a few board breaks at a demo team performance. The belt testing here is a joke and belts are generally given away in exchange for paying the testing fees. Some students are truly outstanding; however, they are the minority. I sat through two black belt testing events and was amazed how kids and adults who could barely do one complete push up and could not get their leg up above their knee for kicks were getting black belts. Master Steve puts on a show, but at the end of the day, every single person gets a black belt, no one ever fails anything, whether they could actually do something or not. It is a joke. Finally, from a financial standpoint, this place is a rip-off. I was paying $300 a month and my son was mostly being asked to teach so he did not have time to take classes. So I was paying $300 a month to MPBBA for my son to work for them! They also tricked us into signing a two year contract, knowing full well that my son was going to go to college in less than 1.5 years. MPBBA used to be a great school with incredible masters and great camaraderie among everyone. Unfortunately, Master Steve Park has completely destroyed all of this. I would not recommend MPBBA to anyone these days. If you want a great school, check out Master Kang's.
