My son loves this place. He loves his instructors and they make sure to recognize him and his achievements. We've been there less than a year and it feels like they've known him his whole life.
Celebrated my son’s 8th birthday at Yonsei & the kids had a blast! Non-stop fun from start to finish. The party attendants took care of everything so the grownups could just sit back and enjoy watching all the great games. Highly recommended Yonsei for your next birthday party!
Our son started with Yonsei almost a year ago and he absolutely loves it! He always looks forward to going to his classes. All the instructors do an awesome job teaching our kids. Everyone is so sweet! The class hours are pretty flexible. I would definitely recommend Yonsei Martial Arts Academy!
My family has experienced diffrent Martial Arts Academies and Yonsei is by for the Best. My Daughter Loved the Relationships, and Friendships she has developed and wants to continue. Sensei is more than an instructor, he is a leader, he is kind, firm, approachable and extremely knowledgeable. The Staff is way more than amazing, they are astonishing. If anyone attends this Academy you and/or your child will definetly become a better person.
Yonsei is easily the best martial arts school in the country.
Yonsei Martial Arts has been amazing for our kids. For the past two years we’ve been able to celebrate the personal growth and skill development acquired through the weekly training, guidance, and leadership Yonsei offers. Classes are efficient and fun. Leaders are encouraging and firm. Friendships are abundant. Opportunities for our older kids to lead the younger ones has helped them to develop life-long leadership and teamwork skills. The optional tournaments motivated them to work towards a goal, measure their skill level, and celebrate their efforts. We have greatly appreciated Master Mike Sentilles, Mrs. Peggy Richard and their leadership team with all they’ve done taking the time to get to know our kids and help them to be the best they can be. We highly recommend Yonsei to families who are looking for a Martial Arts school that truly cares about their students.
I absolutely love what this place did for my child. I enrolled my child here when he was 5 years old, and I truly believe it has helped shape him into the great young man he is today! Not only do they teach you karate, but they teach you life lessons and mature ways to react and deal with situations. The staff was incredible, and my child loved all the extra fun activities they had for them. We even had a couple birthday parties over there - which hands down were the most fun and unique experiences ever! All of his friends and their parents had a blast and used them as well. Highly recommend this place!!!

There are so many great things about Yonsei! The one that I love the most is the feeling we get each time we attend. They treat you like family! I can see a difference in my son after every visit! They encourage him to never give up and they teach him respect. What more could we ask for right! Stop by and see for yourself! You won’t be disappointed :)

We have been at Yonsei for almost 4 years and it was the best decision we made for our daughter. I love that they teach core values while having fun at the same time. The staff is amazing and we wouldn't dream of going anywhere else.

We love Yonsei! Joining this school is one of the best decisions we have made. Connor has really started to focus better in school and be more respectful and empathetic and confident since being at Yonsei. All of the staff are caring and attentive, and outside of training every child's entire well being is important to them.

Yonsei Academy has given our son a safe, strict and fun place to learn Tang Soo Do. Respect, honesty and focus are a few core values taught. The staff is wonderful with kids. I recommend to friends and family.
Best decision we ever made sending my son to this school. The staff is great. My son became a 3rd degree black belt it took a lot of focus & hard work. The staff really cares for the students and teaches them how to respect themselves & others.
This place is excellent for physical activity and mental training, discipline. My two daughters like this. It’s fun for them and they enjoy every class. They always do different physical activity every time, so it’s great!!
The most engaging and committed staff! All 3 of our kids are enrolled at Yonsei.
Love this place!!!!
The absolute best thing you can do for your child or yourself is to join the Yonsei Martial Arts Academy family! Fabulous people and a fantastic program that will help you succeed in life!
Have been here for 1 year already and joining Yonsei is the best decision I have probably ever made
We came here for a party. The staff was so amazing. The party was well organized and the kids had a blast
This school is amazing! My son has grown so much since he has been enrolled here. The instructors are very patient and very knowledgeable.
This place is awesome!! Logan loves going to karate and when he does he always gives it his best and always learning more and trying new things.
Yonsei is impressive. The instructors sincerely care about the kids and give them individualized attention. This school has exceeded my expectations.
Yonsei is great! All the instructors are great, and know how to work with children in a way that is both firm, and respectful.
My child has learned a lot, has a lot of fun, and has improved in discipline, and focus.
Great dojang. Master Sentilles and his staff of instructors instill good focus, discipline and self-control to students of all ages.
GAME-BASED LEARNING The Benefits of Game-Based Learning for 5-6 year olds When people generally think of “play” they think of fun and games…something simply for amusement and nothing more. However, there is a bigger, and more important, piece that is often overlooked…learning. As Kay Redfield Jamison said, “Children need the freedom and time to play. […]
One of the biggest struggles in parenting is understanding why perfectly sweet and smart children can, in an instant, turn into the most difficult beings ever faced. It’s often as if a switch was flipped and chaos has ensued. This typically results in parents becoming frustrated at their child and disciplining them in the heat […]
GAME-BASED LEARNING The Benefits of Game-Based Learning for 7-9 year-olds When we hear the word “learn” we often think of children sitting in a classroom, at a desk, with a teacher educating students on a particular subject. We rarely ever imagine playing a game as a teaching and learning tool. However, the benefits of utilizing […]
Is It Rude, Is It Mean, Is It Bullying? As they say, kids will be kids. And yes, children and teens can be unkind to their peers and feelings get hurt. The problem is when these behaviors become common and target the same person repeatedly. This is when kids being kids begins to cross the […]
ENDORPHINS The Key to Effort and Focus in Children and Teens Endorphins are natural chemicals produced in the body to reduce pain and boost happiness.

What is one of the key factors to your child being successful and learning positive behaviors? In our 6th Parenting Skillz we discuss that factor. It is consistency. Your child needs to know that no matter what happens, you are always going to be a consistent parent. Maintaining consistency means that you are going to […]
In our 5th post in the Parent Skillz Series we address the concept of Edutainment. It is well known that when we learn something we best understand it and concretize it in our knowledge when we play with it. Men will play with their work shop tools, women will play with a new hair style, […]
Prompting for Success Our 4th part in our parenting skillz series asks the question, “How can you set your child up for daily success?” One of the most effective ways to do this is to focus on prompting instead of punishment. Here’s what you need about prompting your child toward good behavior and decisions: 1. […]
Punishment vs. Discipline Good behavior is a learning process for children, and we are their roadmap. Children usually behave per their own emotions and impulses. At the same time, being a parent is also a learning process and sometimes we rely on our own emotions and impulses to teach. Usually, that means we divert directly […]
