• "Tang Soo Do taught me so many important things while growing up, in which, I believe, contributed to my success throughout my college career, as well as my professional career.  Tang Soo Do taught me discipline, respect, patience, and confidence.  By training in Tang Soo Do, I also learned the importance of dedication, integrity and character, and setting and achieving goals.” - Master Tedeschi

• “You do not have to be a ‘stereotypical figure’ to train and excel in a traditional martial art.  I believe with hard work and dedication, everyone can receive the many benefits of training in a traditional martial art.  Our style has a deeper philosophy than just learning how to kick and punch; Tang Soo Do teaches respect, integrity, and building character.  At Blair School of Martial Arts, we provide a family friendly and positive learning environment for our students, and encourage our students to never stop learning.” - Master Tedeschi
