18 years ago I brought my son to Dickson Taekwando to help his self confidence. (Diagnosed on the Autism spectrum)
Now the torch has been passed, and I'm taking my granddaughter! Dickson Taekwando was one of the best things I could have ever done for my kids
Love this program!! Both of my children love it and have benefitted greatly!!
In the past two years my children have grown in confidence and discipline under the instruction of Master Lewis. We cannot praise this school enough. Dickson Taekwando is a huge blessing to our family and we are thankful that our children have the opportunity to train there.
I brought my daughters (ages 5 and 8) to the "Better Focus for Better Grades Workshop" that was on July 30. As I sat and watched, I noticed another parent stood up to do the exercises with her son. It looked fun, so I thought I would try it. It also seemed challenging for me since I have secondary progressive multiple sclerosis and usually walk with a cane.
After that day, my girls and I really enjoyed it and we signed up for classes. I even got my boyfriend to join too! The instructors are very helpful and encouraging. Their emphasis on respect, courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and indomitable spirit has had a positive impact on all of our lives after only 4 weeks of class!
This class has really helped me a lot with my strength and my balance and to embody the definition of perseverance and indomitable spirit. Thank you Mr. Lewis and Mr. Bowden for all of your encouragement and faith.
Very friendly staff! We had a private meeting to see if our little boy was ready for classes and Mr. Duncan was very patient with him.
