Coach Robert and his team have created a wonderful environment for goal setting, positive/growth mindset, development of physical literacy, fitness and fun. Even with martial arts as an individual pursuit, Coach Robert has created a team environment where peers support each other, celebrate each other, while ensuring comparison is solely with your previous self and not with others. Friendly and fun competitive scenarios that engage peers, parents/caregivers, young coaches help create a community feel in the class. The language in the class is intentional, personalized, growth focused, and kind. The program walks the walk - it is about respecting self and others while learning skills that will stay with students for life. We have seen our young daughter and her peers further develop their strong voices, their skills of personal reflection, ability to give and receive advice/tips in an empowering way, and of course learn martial arts. Since starting Jung Do Martial Arts, our daughter has transferred the 'Yes, I can' attitude, process goals, and many other life skills to other areas of her life. Thank you Coach Robert for creating such a purposeful and confidence building/enhancing program!
