👍👍 My boys just started here, and love it! Jesus gave them the opportunity to come in, and see how the class is before making the commitment to join. He is a great instructor with patience, and he takes his time with each student. I’m glad I chose him to instruct my boys. They love it at JT Taekwondo!...
