Hoboken's Home For Family Friendly Martial Arts Training

Master Vic Teran is really an awesome teacher. He is super committed to the class and the discipline i.e. the Taekwondo way of life. More importantly, he is a very nice person!

Master Vic Teran is very good with kids and make sures they have a great experience. He really knows how to motivate, inspire and rally the class to their goals and produce results.

He really cares about the kids and their lives. They love him and respect him a lot (my son said last week that after # 1 mom and #2 dad, he loves #3 Master Vic in the whole wide world!). I have personally observed all the kids make immense progress with respect to their personalities. The kids, their parents and Master Vic have become a closely knit family and I am very proud to be a part of this family. We recently celebrated 4 birthdays together over the past 2 months and the kids and parents had a lot of fun!

Personally, my son started showing a lot of confidence, focus, energy and has started to develop a very healthy attitude in a short span of 3 months. Mr Vic also infuses a lot of cardio exercises and strength training for the kids into the regimen. My 4 year old has increased his stamina and endurance, has grown taller! and his eating habits have also improved greatly. We recently did two 1.5 hour hikes on the weekend which he completed with ease.

I have to say that this school is probably the best Taekwondo school in New Jersey!

After searching for the perfect place to start my TKD journey in the local area, I was lucky to find the International TKD Academy! Victor is a great teacher/instructor with a great background. Not only am I learning the martial art of ITF TKD, Victor incorporates self-defense and high intensity workouts as well. Couldn't be happier! 100% recommend, you won't regret.

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!"
