THEY SAID ABOUT US
Testimonials
“Every time I walk into class, I am walking into my second home and training with my family.”
Kaiden Distance
My favorite reason is that Tae Kwon Do has changed my life is that I met almost all of my friends at Tae Kwon Do. They always play with me. They Practice with me and support me in class.
Cayton Boucher
“Although we are all at different levels of expertise and different phases of our lives, we all share a common bond in the practice of taekwondo, and the atmosphere fosters collaboration over competition.”
Dr. Paul Kruchesky
I signed up at King Tiger as a 35 year old— Initially my goals were simple, try something new and become more flexible. Recently I’ve earned a blue belt and my goals have become more clear! By learning new lessons of commitment, leadership and practice, King Tiger in Greenville has translated these great principles into my personal life, workplace and to help further serve the community.
Mark Gerhart
“We’ve been attending King Tiger for the last several years and it’s been a wonderful experience. My daughter and I love King Tiger Tae Kwon Do for many reasons, not only for learning martial arts, but for the friendships that we’ve developed with both students and staff there. The staff is always ready to help if you have questions or need assistance and the fellowship between the students and staff makes the entire experience feel like a familial one.”
Rich and Alexa Garner
“In my personal walk with taekwondo, I stand on the shoulders of giants, experts whose example and coaching lifts me up and enables me to achieve far more than I could alone. I am grateful. Our dojang is not a building, but instead our reliance upon each other. When appropriate, we reach out to each other. We meet locally. We practice together. We encourage each other.
We build each other up. Just as, in fact, we have been all along.”
D. Hippard
