Testimonials
-- Incredible environment for families interested in learning more than just Taekwondo. Friendships and Fun are a welcome facet of this dojang and rarely if at all found elsewhere! The instructors are experienced with a passion to share knowledge and sincere desire to create opportunity for improvement and success. Olympian Barb Kunkel (7th degree (dan) black belt) trained with elite champion coaches and athletes. She brings 20 years of expertise to anyone who desires to learn about life, leadership and taekwondo (goals and objectives and achievements), regardless of age (7-74 as of today). Sabumnim Kunkel and her team of 1st, 2nd and 3rd degree black belts relate to any age level. Whether you are one person or a family of eight, this dojang and its taekwondo experience need to be part of your life for physical well-being and mental growth and so much more. As the cliche goes, "don't bother looking anywhere else because nothing even comes close to the Academy of Life and Leadership Taekwondo."
-- ALL TKD instructors pay attention to the individual needs and safety of each student. I am 56 years old and started training at ALL TKD when I was 47 because of the many physical and mental benefits of martial arts. I chose this school because two school teachers here in Colorado Springs recommended Olympian Barb Kunkel as a very positive person and dedicated individual. Every step of my journey to 2nd Degree Black Belt has been positive, beneficial, enjoyable and exciting. When people ask me if they are too old, I reply, "absolutely not!"
-- I shopped around at just about every Taekwondo school in Colorado Springs to get my daughter started and found this school stood out above all. From the moment I walked into the school people started introducing themselves to me and my family making us feel very welcome. We have been taking classes here for 3 years now and absolutely love it. We not only enjoy the classes we take but also feel like we are part of a bigger family. The connections you make at this school go well beyond just taking classes; we help each other inside and out of the school. The curriculum they have for the younger kids is simply amazing. Not only do they learn self-defense, they have home rules, safety rules, and community service for each belt they earn. The older “teens” are just amazing and in my opinion the perfect role models for the younger children. I would recommend this school to anyone out looking for a quality martial arts school.
-- Great place for kids, teens and adults to learn about confidence and respect as well as self defense and martial arts skills. Awesome programs at every level, great staff, very tight community of people. I highly recommend it.
