Although I have not been back to Yus Academy for quite some time this was the martial art and school that sparked my interest in the martial arts as this also taught me the will and discipline to never give up. I would reccomend this school to anyone wanting to learn Twae Kwon Do.

We had my 5 year old daughter try out Yu’s, not really having any expectations. She absolutely loved it from the first class. Everyone is kind and patient with her, would definitely recommend.

I have been studying here for over 5 years. The family atmosphere is very special. Everyone is welcomed with open arms. The programs are structured to fit all ages and levels of ability. This is where I have found my fitness for the longest amount of time. I have been part of other programs but none like this one. Join us, you'll be impressed.

Brennan has gained so many skills from Yu’s Academy. Everyone is extremely helpful and he is only two belts from being a Black Belt. As parents we continue to push him to accomplish his goal. I would recommend Yu’s Academy to everyone!!!! Wonderful business.

My family and I have been practicing Tae Kwon Do for over 2 years at Yu’s Academy. We absolutely love the Academy and all the Instructors. They make classes fun while you learn a valuable skill. It is an fantastic place to teach children and adults about self defense, discipline, and respect. 5 stars doesn’t seem to be enough.

The most positive, fun but yet hard working academy around. The instructors are awesome and do everything they can to help you learn. They never give up teaching and have the most patience ever. The classmates are the best as well. They all help you through anything that you struggle with and cheer you on. When my son first started he was shy and it took a while to break him out of his shell. There were only certain instructors and classmates he would work with but they stuck by him and he is now black belt today. He still loves going and loves to continue to learn new things and loves working with his classmate and instructors. I am glad we chose Yu’s Academy and became part of their family.

My son and I have been going to Yu’s Academy for 6 years. We love learning Martial Arts together and absolutely love the family environment at Yu’s. The instructors genuinely care about their students and fellow students care about each other as if we are brothers & sister. If you’re interested in learning Martial Arts and getting a great workout in a family friendly and supportive environment, then come down to Yu’s Academy.
