I have been training with Master Bernard for 12 years and in martial arts for 27. Master Bernard is the best instructor. He is an expert in kickboxing and tae kwon do. He brings out the best in students and black belts of all levels. He is a champion himself and is in amazing physical condition. Students really earn their belts. They are talented & motivated and there is a nice camaraderie. I train in the cardio kickboxing, sparring, and taekwon-do classes. Kickboxing is set to music and combines martial arts, cardio, stretching and weights. There is a social atmosphere and familiar faces. Women and men of all ages. The workout is tough and challenging. I also train in traditional taekwon-do classes. Mr. B is a walking encyclopedia of knowledge. We learn self-defense, sparring, and how to develop power and speed. But it’s not all physical. We learn courtesy, respect, integrity, indomitable spirit, and self-control. Confidence and self-esteem grows. My two daughters ( 9 & 12) have been taking classes since they were 3 and made great progress. All the parents are very comfortable having Mr. Bernard teach their children. Some have gone on to compete very successfully in the US and world. The kids have fun, grow strong and develop integrity and character. I highly recommend Team USA Taekwon-do Fitness and Master Bernard for adults and children who want to learn the martial art lifestyle of health and happiness. Scott L. Lanin, Esq., www.laninlaw.com.

I have been training with Master Bernard for 21 years, since 1990. His personal skills and respect as a teacher are known throughout the US and across the world. All martial arts combine physical and mental training that tests your endurance, focus, internal strength, courage, and the ability to overcome personal fears. Master Bernard teaches you and guides you through your basic skills, advanced knowledge, but more importantly through lifes lessons that we experience on this amazing journey of life.
He is dedicated to having his students be the best that they can be through proper form, technique, stamina, character, and drive. My life has truly been altered in all aspects by my training and my friendship that has developed over the years with Master Bernard.
No previous skills or abilities are needed except a desire to be fit, healthy, and to learn. I highly recommend Teamusa Taekwondo as a place to train and be healthy, but also take your life and give it greater meaning and purpose.
