Karstadt Taekwon-Do ITF, Phoenix AZ

Watch out for the owner David. He's not the person you think he is. He is manipulative and insecure and gasses light any parent and student that he thinks poses a threat to his status/position. The owner will never tell anyone this, but I was the one responsible for keeping his school in business during lockdown. This was how he was able to make up where he is today. I was a beloved instructor by his students, until he fired me due to myself choosing to go my way of success. David once shot me down when I came up with the idea of having my own martial arts school. David even promised me that I'd be making $1,000 once I'd become an instructor at this school. The current assistant instructors are extremely inexperienced and downright lazy. No energy and enthusiasm. If you are a parent looking to enroll your child at a martial arts program, try MMA (mixed martial arts) or even BJJ (Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu) for an All-kids fitness program. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this school, the owner David, specifically. Trust me, you'll be happy your kid knows a true skill about self defense.

Our son has been training with Master K for a couple of years now, and his TKD training at Karstadt has improved his flexibility, strength, focus, and discipline. This is a great place for kids and adults alike. We were referred to Master K by a father and son who trained with him years ago. We’d readily recommend him to anyone.
