We’re so grateful to have Hong Ik Martial Arts. Participating in classes gives our girls a sense of normalcy with all the changes happening around them.

I also appreciate the time and dedication of the team to work with our daughters. That type of encouragement has helped strengthen their focus and continues to build their confidence, both important skills that they carry over into other aspects of their lives, like school. Plus, our girls are just having fun as they’re continuing to advance in their skills and techniques!

-Tanya and Nick I, parents of Delilah (age 7) and Atessa (age 6)

"Being part of Hong Ik Martial Arts means being part of the Hong Ik family and there is a wonderful sense of community. Safety and mental well being has always been paramount, and Covid-19 has only heightened the care and concern for students of Hong Ik Martial Arts.

-Emily, mom to Ruben, age 11

Thank you for your effort and dedication to make this a safe and positive environment for everyone!

-Yaquelin R, mom to Emanuel (age 9) and Mauricio (age 6)

“Hong Ik Martial Arts has been the only constant in these recent, uncertain times. Master Oh inspires a positive and calm attitude for the children. This helps maintain physical and mental wellness for the students. Hong Ik has been a saving grace!”

-Kristiana Andrews, mom to Ella, age 11

The dojang is very clean and I feel it is safe for my child to attend classes at Hong Ik while unable to have other indoor activities. It is the discipline that the teachers and staff maintain here that makes a big difference to make parents comfortable to send their kids here. We cannot thank you enough Hong Ik of Tarrytown!

-Anisha B (mom to Neel, age 10)

I am so grateful to HIMA for providing the stability, continuity, and mind-body connection that our children desperately need.

I love that through participation in Tae Kwon Do at Hong Ik, my son's development is supported on so many levels: physically, mentally, even emotionally and spiritually.

It truly "checks all the boxes," and contributes to a more complete sense of self for my son, especially in these uncertain times.

On days that he goes to class, he just seems more grounded.

With sincere appreciation,
-Heidi Venezia (mom to Ryder, blue belt, age 8)

What parents are saying...

“We are so fortunate to have Grand Master Yoo and all the Masters of Hong Ik Martial Arts of Tarrytown in our lives; both my sons have had immense growth since joining, not only from a physical point of view but from an emotional one as well.

It is the perfect balance of discipline/self control/physical activity and confidence booster that they yearned and needed... and let me tell you what a remarkable job they are doing at the dojang to maintain a sense of normalcy while keeping our children and their staff organized and safe.

Our life is all the better because of Hong Ik Martial Arts.”

-Daniela and Brandon, parents to Holden (9) and Sonny (5)
