Hoboken's Home For Family Friendly Martial Arts Training

Hands down, Jersey City's best kept secret. Master Vic Teran certainly has a gift for working with children. We took both of our girls, one a very shy and reluctant 6 year old and our youngest and most rambunctious almost 4 year old to begin their Taekwondo tutelage under Mr. Teran. Needless to say, our oldest has certainly come out of her shell and surprised us all. This school is not just any ordinary Taekwondo studio, this is more like family. Each and every child is acknowledged, respected and given the opportunity to be their best self. Not only does he care about their progress in Taekwondo but he also makes sure to check their academic progress in school and reinforce the importance of education and discipline. I can't say enough good things about this place but more than kind words, what my kids have learned speaks for itself.

I am very pleased on a teaching style. Master Victor is very nice person as well as very nice teaching style.Finally I found a suitable place for my kid.

My daughter has been attending classes for a short time but enough to realize that the teaching is very good as well as the discipline and respect that is very important, I recommend this school.

Master Teran is the best martial arts teacher. He is committed to his students and also challenges us surpass our limits. I have personally have gotten stronger and he only motivates me to be best. Ive have not only learned martial arts, but also discipline and be a better person.

I can't say enough about the quality of Master Victor Teran's instruction and training. My son has been enrolled at ITA since February 2016, and in this short time he has gained a strong foundation in the art of TaeKwon-Do, as well as a newfound sense of confidence and discipline. My son has achieved a level of physical fitness that I have never seen in him before. I owe this to Master Vic's thorough, and intense, training. He doesn't cut any corners when it comes to teaching his students the fundamentals of TaeKwon-Do. His students not only learn about the physical aspects of the martial arts form, but the history behind its origins as well. 

And most importantly, he is great with the kids. He is always cool and under control--never losing his temper or expressing frustration with his students. He encourages respect among his students and commands the same from them.

If you're looking for a studio and a teacher that will advance your child through the belt ranks for a price, ITA is not the right place for you. If you're looking for a place that will challenge your child and leave them with a solid foundation in TaeKwon-Do, it gets no better than ITA and Master Vic.

Master Vic is passionate about teaching & helping his students learn Taekwondo. His military background is very, very impressive. He also takes pride in his work & is proud of his students' accomplishments. He is friendly with the students and gives them encouraging words to always do better. The school participates in a couple of competitions throughout the year. This is very good exposure for the students that participate because they put all they've learned into effect. As a parent, it's such a happy feeling to see your child put all these forms/techniques together to defend himself or herself!  In addition, we have a yearly picnic trip & an annual anniversary award dinner which both events are so much fun for the kids & parents as well. We signed up our son after being at another school for two years. We are very happy & more than satisfied with our son's accomplishments under Master Vic's training & guidance. He's gained self confidence & enjoys going to his training classes! 

The cost of the classes are very reasonable! You will not find a better school, than our school!  In 2015 & 2016 we were awarded the "Best School!"
