Our experience here at Taekwondo Warrington has been amazing with Master Terry. We really appreciate how well he understands a child’s needs and helps them be great at what they do. We love it here👍🏼
I have had the honor studying in Master Terry Kim for a couple of years. He is compassionate, exciting, honorable and absolutely fun. Being under his study I obtained my 2nd degree and thank him for his patience and time at helping me me between learning the curriculum and excelling to do my best. He is a great Master and wish he was closer to where I live.
The instructions work very well with both of our young children. it is great exercise and helps to teach confidence in themselves, respect for others and self discipline.
