Brian and Dave have been great on Saturday mornings. But my wife, son and I have left Wednesday classes with Joe with tears and frustration. My son turns six on in a couple months and simply cannot do what is expected of him and cannot keep up with eight and nine year old white belts. We enrolled him knowing he lacked not only focus and confidence, but is behind his5-year-old peers with balance and coordination. While Mr. Brian breaks down the forms and works on each part, Mr. Joe ends each class with the expectation that students at least have a working understanding of the entire form. White belts are separated, but my son was in groups with older white belts. Anna - who has been incredible - has worked with my son one-on-one on Saturdays, but he falls woefully behind in classes lead by Mr. Joe. We understand my kid needs to show more focus at taekwondo, in school and at home. That's why we bring him. But Mr. Joe telling him recently that his focus is why he has 20+ stripes but does not have a black stripe, simply isn't true and was a major blow to his confidence. My son admittedly gets frustrated too easily and gives up. He was in taekwondo to work on that. Instead, it has been reinforced at Hwangs.

Our 5 year old has been in his class since April and has learned a lot and has made friends with all the kids. I stay for the class, there is plenty of seating for parents and coach interacts with everyone and makes jokes, we're laughing a lot. The kids get plenty of water breaks and each class usually ends with sparring. I have tried the adult class and never did jiujitsu in my life. It doesn't matter what level you're at when you join a class, coach and other people training will help you. While I haven't signed up for jiujitsu yet I have joined the morning conditioning workouts on M, W, & F mornings. It is an hour of intense training that includes running, high intensity intervals, and strength training with weights and body weight. I love it! I have been doing it since May and plan to continue inevitably :-)
