I have been going to classes at Fox Mill Tae Kwon Do three to four times a week for over ten years. That alone should be an indication of how worthwhile I feel the program to be. The tae kwon do classes are a perfect form of exercise as they work on cardio, strength, coordination, balance and even mental focus. The instruction is excellent as routines and skill drills vary from class to class keeping the participant engaged and on their toes. Better than going to the gym or working out on one's own, I find these classes are the perfect motivational mix for enjoyment and success. The instructors are encouraging and challenge the students to try their best and improve. Yet, each student is viewed as an individual and their progress is always judged on the basis of his or her own abilities. Therefore, the environment is very supportive. Over the years, I have developed many strong friendships with the families that have attended Fox Mill Tae Kwon Do and these friendships have lasted even when some of my fellow classmates move on to other activities or to other parts of the world. This is because, what Fox Mill Tae Kwon Do fosters most of all, beyond fitness and martial arts skills, is a sense of community among the families that go there. The environment of mutual respect and appreciation extends to both adults and kids alike. Here, at Fox Mill Tae Kwon Do, each individual is a vital part of this community. That is why I still come several times a week. That is why my husband stayed to achieve his deputy black belt, my daughter her black belt and my son, like me, his third degree black belt. My whole family has grown along with Fox Mill Tae Kwon Do and Master Tak still knows them, as all his students, past and present, by name. My kids drop by to say hi when they are home from college because this is a place where they feel they belong and are a part of a greater family. I recommend Fox Mill Tae Kwon Do as an excellent place to get into shape, learn self defense/martial arts skills and to forge friendships that will last throughout the years. read more
