I love TaeKwonDo I can't wait for the big day May 29 2010

First class web site! Good job, Lionel.

Taekwondo is great!! It has given me training from a very good teacher, Mr.Gibson!

I was probably the least likely person to train in Taekwondo. I was introverted, unathletic, and uncoordinated. Sometimes, I'm surprised I could even walk! However, Taekwondo gave me the opportunity to become more outgoing and to less fear confrontation. I've been given the opportunity to teach at Orleans Taekwondo and even chose to participate in full contact sparring at tournaments (which can be a pretty scary thought!). Most of all, I've improved my athletic ability through Mr. Gibson and his instructors precise and extreme attention to detail. I have no doubt that Orleans Taekwondo produces some of the most technically skilled black belts around. I strongly encourage you to give us a try. You'd be surprised at what you can do. Orleans Taekwondo has a very friendly and welcoming community environment. We can't wait to welcome you to the Orleans Taekwondo family!

I’ve been training with Mr Gibson at his school for 12 years now. And not only has my confidence drastically improved, I have made good friends, and there is a sense of family at the school that I have never felt anywhere else.
I teach nearly every day of the week for several hours and I take class 3 times a week.
Last year, I’ve started full contact sparring. Not only have I greatly improved; I am now strong enough and confident enough to step into the ring and fight on a regular basis. We go to tournaments around the province and everytime is more interesting than the last.
The people I’ve seen, the experience I’ve gained, and the control I’ve learned helps me not only in the ring, but also in my day to day at home and at work.
Every once in a while, I learn something new about myself that I probably wouldn't have discovered otherwise.

Thanks to Mr Gibson (the head instructor at the school) and to all the instructors who’ve helped me along my journey I am a much better, stronger, more confident, and more determined person than I ever thought I could be.

So thank you! And I look forward to training with all of you for many years to come.

taekwondo teaches me how to defend myself

I realy love taekwondo realy,realy,realy.

Enrolling my son Connor in Taekwondo has contirbuted to his self-confidence and skill development. He understands what is expected and feels comfortable that he can try his best and be recognized for it. I believe this positive reinforcement is critical for his personal and academic success. The instructors are very patient and provide a positive and safe environment.
At Orleans Taekwondo, there is a true sense of "family", which is administered in a strict and fair fashion under the effective leadership of Mr. and Mrs. Gibson.

Hello Orleans Taekwondo
I just wanted to say thank you and let you know what a great job you're doing with the kids. I saw my granddaughter testing for her blue belt with the Grandmaster on the weekend, and I was so proud of her and what she was able to do. Her improved pride and confidence is a result of the hard work of Mr.Gibson and his instructors. Keep up the great work, it's just wonderful.
