Victory Taekwondo HB, Huntington Beach CA

As a new student for several weeks prior to COVID-19, our son Benjamin demonstrated an incredible enthusiasm for participating in class due to the nurturing guidance by the staff lead by and including Master Claire and Master Chris while in the clean, well-organized studio. Throughout each lesson, Master Claire, Master Chris and the staff do a magnificent job promoting discipline, focus, and positive energy utilizing the specific movements required in the acquisition of Taekwondo skills. Additionally, they make very successful efforts getting to know who the children are on an individual level, ensuring an emotional connection to the teachings of Taekwondo while emphasizing the development of a child's respect for others and themselves, accountability of their behaviors, and detailed integration of mind/body via the many opportunities Taekwondo provides. Self-defense, body awareness, balance, and inner reflection are all blended well within this "community", enabling my son's enthusiasm for Taekwondo to remain quite strong. Now that COVID-19 is a reality, Master Claire, Master Chris and their staff continue to meet these high expectations that they have made for themselves via live zoom classes, countless U-Tube videos and email communications, allowing Benjamin's continued excitement to remain heightened. As a result and without any hesitations, I fully recommended Victory Taekwondo for anyone who may be interested in studying this art, or who are parents of a child curious to try it.

My son and daughter have been attending Victory Taekwondo for past three years. They offer great program to help young kids with physical strength and developments but also teach them with respect of others and discipline.

My girl has has had almost four years of great experiences with Victory. From the beginning Master Chris and Master Claire have instilled a regiment of discipline, hard work, and high expectations mixed with fun, high energy, and an obvious affinity for working with kids. Their studio is clean and organized and their classes are varied and well thought out in order to keep the kids attention. The students are taught respect and discipline, not improper aggression or macho ideals. If you want to spend money on something that will help your kids for the rest of their lives, this is it.

Master Chris and his team are amazing here! They are so welcoming and encouraging. My son loves it here. Always leaves with a huge smile and practicing what he learns at home.

My son has been taking classes here for the last few months and loves it! The instructors are great, and he has a sense of accomplishment when he masters the forms.

Our son has been coming here for a little under 2 months and he loves it! After weeks he decided he wanted to make a full year commitment and add the sparring class. The instructors are top notch and have admirable patience with all age levels. We love it!

Victory Taekwondo is one of the best academy, Master Chris and his team teach our kids the beauty in this martial art

Victory Taekwondo has been an amazing experience for our two boys (currently 15 and 13 years old). They have received instruction in taekwondo for the last 3 years, but they have also learned discipline, respect, self control, leadership, confidence, and a sense of community. My husband is also doing taekwondo now!

I appreciate the high expectations that Grand Master Kim, Master Chris, Master Claire, and ALL of the instructors hold the student to during class. They are firm, personable, friendly, fun, welcoming, and knowledgeable. I am also thankful that Victory puts a big emphasis on students getting to know each other in class.

We live about 25 minutes away, but Victory is worth the drive!

Great, friendly studio that emphasizes form and technique over advancement for the sake of advancement.

Both of our kids attend Victory Tae Kwon do starting at "little tigers". Great environment of learning and Master Chris and Team brings the best out of our kids from discipline, respect, honor and being a great human being!

This is our new family Victory Taekwondo is one of the best academy, Master Chris and his team teach our kids the beauty in this martial art, with passion and kindness as well with discipline and respect.

Our son Ethan has been going to Victory TKD for two and a half years. This is an excellent martial arts school that reinforces discipline, respect and the value of hard work.

Master Chris, Master Claire, and Grand Master Kim are part of a family-run, professional taekwondo center. My son started in preschool. He had little confidence when he first started, but within months he felt a sense of accomplishment thanks to the guidance of the Masters and the instructors. Whereas a lot of small children cry at new events like the start of kindergarten, a school change, or summer camp, my son is brimming with confidence. He can focus better in school than most kids his age, he follows directions of his teachers thanks to the training at Victory, and he communicates well with bigger and younger children because such camaraderie and respect is part of Victory's program. He feels part of the Victory community. All the children are given plenty of one-on-one attention that makes them thrive and feel important. No dojo can compare. They have tons of activities (like picnics and movie nights) outside of formal classes that show them they are part of a larger community. This feeling of belonging has been great for my son's self-esteem. Whereas some schools have a reputation for practically giving away belts, Master Chris, Master Claire, and Grand Master Kim make sure the students earn the right even to test. Nothing is just given to them; they must earn respect, belts, trophies, etc. We are so grateful to be part of this community that helps us raise my son the best way possible. Also, having a female Master in addition to a male Master is a nice role model for both boys and girls alike. We have been going there for almost five years now! Your children will gain confidence, learn to earn respect and show respect to parents and the instructors. Great for boys and girls.

I cannot say enough of this place. Best Taekwondo class I have attended. Master Chris is so good with all the kids, big & small. And the instructors that help him are amazing too. My son loves it their, theirs no other place I would rather go.

Our son has been doing Tae Kwon Do at Victory for about a year. It has been a wonderful experience for our family. He continues love going and working hard to achieve personal goals.

While we're fairly new to VictoryTKD, Master Chris has made not only my daughter, but my family feel like their family. We never once felt like an outsider because we were new.
