TESTIMONIALS
What Our Parents Say
Master Hama is wonderful with kids. His energy and friendliness always makes coming to Empower Taekwondo a pleasant experience! My son always looks forward to going and his focus and behavior has benefited from being in taekwondo. Thank you Master Hama and the staff at Empower!
In his program my daughter excelled. Master Hama makes learning the art of Taekwondo fun and exciting for all ages! Highly recommended.
Great class, my daughter most definitely gets a workout and enjoys coming to class each and every time!
We also love how this is such a diverse group of students and families. The celebratory times have started to feel a bit like an extended family potluck. Thank you all so much for loving and encouraging our girl, not just in Taekwondo but in real life.
Master Hama, lives what he teaches! Persevere, indomitable spirit, respect, and discipline. My kids have enjoyed learning TKD from him and I have enjoyed TKD classes and the Kick2BFit classes. Here you will find the support you need to grow both physically and mentally! Master Hama has a way of convincing you to believe in yourself and that is worth every penny! He is by far the most energetic person I have met and that is a perfect match for any energy level of children! As parent, here you can find the support in teaching your children to respect others and have self-control and know boundaries are good, which provides that hour of respite for a parent knowing that after its not a battle to reestablish the rules again! Thank you!!
I would recommend Empower Taekwondo to anyone. You will not find another athlete or coach more committed to your child's growth. Master Hamma's love and knowledge of tkd are outstanding. If you want to have a positive experience, reach beyond your potential this is the place you need to be.

Master Hama teaches more than just Taekwondo to his students! He instills self-respect and respect for others; he aids in teaching them doing good for & to others, is best for self confidence. Believing in yourself to make a difference in a positive respectful way! The old saying, "it takes a village to help raise a child", can be realized here! As a parent , it is WONDERFUL to have another adult have your back on subjects such as no back-talking, listen when others are talking, finish what you start, and apply your best even when it's hard!
Another amazing point to Master Hama and his programs is that it can include Adults too! Not all of us are made to enjoy spin class (no offense) so this gives me a great opportunity to get a workout in a fun and useful manner. Self-defense techniques are good for any person to know young or old!! This way it increases our family time because I am not just waiting & watching them and then squeezing in my workouts at other times! If you are at all considering an outlet for your kids energy or learning a martial art for yourselves! Do it with Empower TKD and Master Hama! It will not be a waste of your time or money!
