Testimonials
"We joined Woo Yong's Taekwondo 6 years ago. Both of our daughters ( ages 12 and 8) are students. Grand Master Jung and Master Jo are extraordinary teachers and have created an environment where the students are taught the skills of Taekwondo and physical fitness, while also instilling confidence, self-assurance, organization, and dedication and a sense of pride. Our girls love to go to every class and have benefited in so many ways. As parents, we could not be more satisfied. We have recommended Woo Yong's to several of our friends and will continue to do so. "
