Truly amazing! I have not had one class or experience I did not enjoy. The discipline they teach, you carry through in everyday life. I know that, if it wasn't for Saroughi International Taekwon-Do, I would not be where I am today. Adam L. 3rd Degree Black Belt
I have learned a great many things since I started practicing Taekwon-do with Saroughi International Taekwon-do. I have learned to challenge myself and accomplish things that I never thought that I would be able to do. I have learned that it's never too late to start a new sport, to improve your health and your physical fitness. Thank you Masters George, Alton and Sam for your help and inspiration.

"We have been members of Saroughi International Taekwon-Do for just over a year as a family, and we can honestly say it was one of the best things we have ever done. Besides the obvious health and fitness benefits, the family atmosphere and fun teaching methods employed by the Saroughis have made Taekwon-Do something we look forward to doing every week. Our son asks to go every night! He joined at a mere 4 years of age, and the Saroughis have made a true "ninja" of him!"

I love this place! Being a kickboxing student at Saroughi Taekwon-Do has been a really great experience for me. Sam is patient and excellent at what he does. He takes the time to work with each student individually, makes sure you're doing the moves properly and when necessary, adjusts them to suit you better. My fitness level has increased significantly since starting at Saroughi and as a side bonus I've made several great friends there. I must say though, this is not a class for the faint at heart - you will work very hard and you will sweat a ton, but you'll have fun and the results will be well worth it. I highly recommend the kickboxing classes to anyone who's aiming to become stronger and more fit in an upbeat and comfortable environment - no matter what fitness level you're starting at.

"I have always found it very difficult to stay motivated in any fitness related activity. I am therefore extremely grateful to S.I.T. for providing me with the means to obtain my fitness objectives in an activity and atmosphere that I thoroughly enjoy. I no longer consider keeping in shape a chore but more of a way of life."

During my first pregnancy, I practiced Taekwon-Do well into my 7th month, and post-partum, it was great for getting back in shape quickly. The Masters at Saroughi Taekwon-Do were extremely understanding and helpful in modifying training techniques and exercises to accommodate my changing condition and level of physical fitness, and best of all, I didn't have to give up a sport and way of life that I had come to love. Now entering the second trimester of my second pregnancy, I hope to continue training as long as I can...and I'll definitely be back afterwards.

I found much more than a simple work out at Saroughi Taekwon-do. No matter how hard or tiring my day was, I always leave the school smiling and feeling incredibly energized.

My son was feeling very insecure having just moved to a new neighbourhood and new school. I felt he needed something to boost his self-confidence. He also needed more exercise. I was looking around for something that would fit the bill when I spotted the sign for Saroughi Taekwon-Do and Kickboxing. My son was very reluctant as he was more into video games than sports. The only way I convinced him to give it a try was to promise to go with him. At 40+ and not in the best of shape, I took up Taekwon Do to give my boy moral support.
It was difficult for both of us at first but Master George, Master Alton and all the assistant instructors were very patient. Little by little we mastered the moves that seemed impossible in the eyes of a beginner. Who would have thought I could ever do a flying side kick? Breaking a board with my bare hand is a feeling I'll never forget.
Watching my boy's confidence increase along with his skills is an even better feeling. His reluctance has turned to enjoyment. His favourite part now is when he is asked to be an assistant instructor. I see him stand a little taller when he dons his dobok.
Thank you Sirs.

"Master George and Master Alton teach me how to stand up to bullies and how to escape from someone bad. Learning Taekwon-do makes me feel strong."
-Domenic, age 7.
"I love going to Boot Camp because it is a full body and cardio workout that is never the same class twice. Masters George and Alton keep me motivated, keep me laughing and boost my self-confidence because they truly care."
-Andrea. L
I have spent most of my life lacking self-confidence and still do at times, as does everyone else. However, I have come a long way since taking Taekwon-Do almost 6 years ago. Getting my black belt was a momentous occasion, not to mention hard work!! But in the end it was worth it. However, the Masters are always reminding us that, just as in the school of life, in Taekwon-Do there is always still so much to learn. In the end, it reminds us that we will always be students in life and we will never know everything there is to know. Which is great as this guarantees something to look forward to!

Nous recommendons fortement la participation au club car il y a une atmostphère positive de saine compétition sans violence et abus. L'ambiance y est familiale et les frères Saroughi y contribuent grandement.
