"I have know Master"FAST"Freddy since 2010. He is a Gold Medalist Champion and Has the Fastest Kicks of anyone I know. I have been a TKD Black Belt in NY since 1997 and I Highly Recommend him. He does not have an Anger Problem, Great with Kids, He Listens, Fair and not a Gold Digger. I've been to other Schools moving around and I know a Good Instructor."
Marc Banghart
"I enjoy the family atmosphere and that I can do martial arts with my kids. Freddy is a great mix between teaching discipline, martial arts, compassion and positive reinforcement. He truly cares about the sport and the kids. I also think his pricing is very reasonable."
Samantha Janica
"My kids joined in on a class with their scouts and it was fantastic! Master Freddy was so positive and helped each of the kids see their strengths and also how they can improve. Overall it was a great experience and I plan to return with my family for more classes!"
Hello
"I was interested in getting my son involved with Taekwondo and when I walked in to RCMA it was so welcoming! They truly are a family! Master Freddy is awesome with the kids he is patient! All the kids look up to him, the respect between his students and him is unbelievably perfect! The techniques he uses is different for all ages and he fits it all into one like it's nothing! My son has been there less than a month and he looks forward to going everyday and is advancing faster than I thought!"
