Its on my way to work, and I waited a year for my son to turn 4 years old and started attending classes. I am really impressed with their quality of students, instructors, and their programs. They are very welcoming, knowledgeable and really care about all the students.

If you want fun and quality training come to this place. We have tried one other training facility before deciding to train with Master Lim, the training and instructors did not come close to the experience my son is having here. Everything is done properly and professionally. It's worth every penny that you will invest. I will give ten if there is ten as the highest !!!!!

Amazing place! Have my kids train there for a few months now. I can see a lot of improvement in their everyday behaviour. They have more self discipline and self control as well as they can deal with stress better. The staff is very professional and highly trained. They know how to approach each child individually and make them proud of their achievements. Highly recommend to anyone!

Amazing school an amazing instructors! Me and my wife trained and met in their Vancouver school in 1997 with Grand Master Lim. Now, our daughter has been in Lims Taekwondo for over 5 years. She is in competitive Taekwondo, the Master is an International level coach and referee that can take students to the Olympic level. One of a kind school with tradition, history, and passion to teach. The best place to train and meet friends.

Our children have been attending Lims Taekwondo for several years and I can't think of anything I would want to see different with the school and its programs. For children, it teaches them discipline, respect, confidence, cooperation, good health practices and more. Being around the school for years, I have seen Kids that study and stay in taekwondo become good adults.
