I can’t say enough good things about Bruce McCorrys! My son didn’t know anyone going into it and always felt welcome and a part of every class. The instructors were professional patient and accommodating to each child’s individual needs and my son has learned so much!

Our two boys have been attending classes for about 2 years now. What we love about Bruce McCorry's is the family atmosphere, and the very high instructor to student ratio. The turnover of both students and instructors is very low, so it feels like a family rather than a YMCA class or town sports team. It's not uncommon to see six instructors even on a slow day with 10 kids, and the instructors are long-time veterans, many in the school since they were kids. Our kids love the physical games they play, the wide variety of snacks they provide, and they always have a smile when they're training. Both

My child’s worked with Master McCorry’s team since last year. They’re a fantastic organization, working closely with each student to develop their skills, coordination , and fitness.
They’re taking the current COVID requirements seriously, cleaning between each class and making everyone spread out along with offering online sessions. My child absolutely loves going!

I've been taking Tai Chi classes at Bruce McCorry's for over a year now. There are no group classes for Tai Chi there, just one on one instruction. Master McCorry is very focused on working with you to help you succeed, and finding ways for you to continue your studies - even around knee surgery! Can't recommend them enough!

My children have been going to Bruce McCorry's for six years. They attend their after school program and we could not be any happier. It is the best deal for after school care in our area. They pick the students up from school and pick up is at 6. They do homework and provide a snack. Most impressive is their martial arts program and the confidence they build in their students. Every day their is a hour karate lesson. They also work on self care and mediation. Master McCorry and Master Sandra are incredible role models.

I have had the pleasure of going to Bruce McCorry's Martial Arts. First, my son, who earned his black belt. My daughter and I joined, she moved towards her black belt and I did the same while taking Kickboxing classes. 9 wonderful years of great workouts and instruction, and a great family experience to be able to go and have my kids in the other room learning as well. A great place all around.

Last month we enrolled our 4 year old son at Bruce McCorry's. The cost was $149.00 for 4 lessons and a 'free' uniform (at $149 the uniform is included not free). At the time we enrolled our son we asked what options/cost there was after the initial 4 lessons. We were told that we could go month to month at $149/month, pay six months at a time and get a reduced price, or pay a full year up front and save a few hundred dollars.
After the 4 lessons I told the woman in charge that we would opt for the month to month option for a while to see if our son liked karate. It was at this

They staff, the programs offered and the difference McCorry's makes in a child's life is top notch! The school is very accommodating, and does their absolute best with communication. My son started in the Little Ninja program at just under 4 years old. We suspected he had focus issues, and thought this would help. He's still going strong after 3 years, and LOVES it. He has made some great friends, and has learned self-confidence and focus. I can't say enough good things about them! Wonderful place, and truly care about the children and their development.

My daughter has been attending the after school program at Bruce McCorry's for almost two years. I was nervous about my kindergartener being on her own after school, but Sandra at Bruce McCorry's did a fantastic job in helping my daughter adjust. Sandra makes sure no bulling occurs in the program. My daughter loves going to Bruce McCorry's every day after school.
My daughter has gained self-confidence and skills not only in Taekwondo, but also in everyday skills. Sometimes my daughter will teach me the exercises that she has learned at Bruce McCorry's.
Now my daughter is in first grade with homework

My kids have been attending Bruce McCorry's martial arts for the last 7 years. They have made new friends and learned a lot. They have respect, patience. They have the knowledge and know how to defend themselves, especially since they are both girls. The students are watched closely. The summer camp program is a lot of fun as well. There are still classes but the kids have fun. They go on field trips and enjoy themselves. Bruce and Sandra work very hard at making this a success as do the employees they hire. Most of the employees are former students.

I joined Bruce McCorry's through a Groupon for kickboxing. 10 classes later I was hooked. The classes are geared for all levels, and the instructors will take the time to go around to help correct form, demonstrate a move, or show a lower impact version if a person is struggling.
There is a mix of all levels and ages in class, so on my first class I didn't feel out of place. Kickboxing is a great workout, and I highly recommend it

My daughter has been attending Bruce McCorry's Martial arts for 1.5 years. She now attends their after school program which has been a wonderful experience. This practice has helped her with discipline, respect, focus, and friendship. The staff at Bruce McCorry's is fantastic. They build our children's confidence and self-esteem. This day in age, it's so important to instill our little girls with self esteem and if needed, self defense.

My son has been attending Bruce McCorry's Martial Arts Academy for over 5 years. We initially chose this program based on Master McCorry's reputation and the school's longevity and I can confidently state that we have not been let down. Without a doubt, you (or your children) will be taught solid martial arts skills but it's all the other internal stuff that make this school special. My son has developed a true confidence in himself and will stand up for himself if necessary, he's learned the skills to be focused, to be true, to celebrate his peers' successes rather

My children have been going to Bruce McCorry's for over five years. They love the after school program. I love that they get some free play time and their lessons all before I get done with work!
Sandra and her staff are wonderful with the kids. My sons have progressed not only with their Tae Kwon Do skills, but also with respect and accountability.
