great instructors, sleazy owner

by nyhaute at Citysearch

The instructors are cool and you can learn a lot from them. So if your bones are unbreakable and you don't plan on relocating anytime ever, I'd recommend this spot, because then it's highly likely you won't ever have to come in contact with the owner. He is an idiot. And a sleazy one on top of it, trying to get as much money out of you as he can. I had to cancel because of an injury. A few months later they start charging me again claiming it wasn't cancelled. How convenient the employee I dealt with at the time no longer worked there. Instead of understanding the mistake on his side and returning my money, the owner stood behind a policy that isn't even a part of the contract I signed. A real scum bag.

• Pros: instructors
• Cons: owner, cancellation policy

A very cool experience

I just started training here and I love it! Classes are unlimited for adults so I come every day. I started out to get in shape, but now I know it is much more than that. My confidence is building, balance is better, focus is stronger, and am getting in the best shape of my life!

• Pros: Instructors, Environment
• Cons: none

psst... the 12:15 lunch class at Manhattan Tae Kwon Do is the bomb... there is no

more amazing way to break up the work day than a class with Mr. VanOrden or Ms. Moore. The enthusisam in the dojo is contagious. The supportive nature and positive reinforcement between fellow students and instructors will leave you hooked, wanting more! Classes are specifically tailored to suit each individual student's ability, regardless of age or physical limitations... Stop thinking that it's too hard, that you're too out of shape, that you've never done it before! Just come on in and take a free class. Manhattan Tae Kwon Do is sure to be the best part of your day!

• Pros: Amazing Staff, Great Comraderie, Fantastic Workout
