Our athletes are well-prepared to compete in local, state, national, and international-level competitions.

I have known Master Saturday for 14 years. He taught both my sons who earned their second degree black belts as well as my husband and I who did the Adult class, earning our black belts in Taekwondo. I am a fitness instructor and we have trained together over the years and I really respect Master Saturday’s athleticism. You can be a world class athlete but not an effective teacher. Master Saturday not only has the ability to compete as a world class athlete, but he is also a world class instructor. He makes it so fun for everyone of all ages and his infectious smile is undeniable. He is honest, hardworking, has amazing work ethics and is just an outstanding person. I have the utmost respect for Master Saturday. He is the best!!
My son learned Taekwondo under the instruction of Master Saturday for several years. Master Saturday is an excellent mentor. My son learned a lot! Master Saturday is very kind and genuine. I highly recommend his school!!!
I’ve had the privilege of training with Master Saturday for several years, and it’s been a transformative journey. Not only has my physical technique improved significantly, but I’ve also gained mental discipline, focus, and a sense of purpose. Master Saturday is able to break down complex techniques into understandable and achievable steps. His passion and dedication to martial arts inspire me to push myself beyond my limits. I highly recommend him to anyone who is interested in learning martial arts.
