Hi :). I was looking for a Master which is a true Master, especially in this days, where, after six months of research, I found Master Nestor the best out of all the schools I visited and watched the Masters. Besides Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control, Indomitable Spirit and Loyalty - The Knowledge, Fluidity and Speed are what will come along as well !!! I enjoyed every class with him, I moved to Clearwater with work and still go to his classes when I get the chance, I appreciate him and thank him much for his devotion to Tae Kwon Do and to Us ! And if youre looking to evolve and connect the Body, Mind, Spirit - He is the one to learn from, Gamsahamnida !!!

I started when I was about 12 years old and I never took it seriously. I left to play soccer after doing 2 years. I came back this year because I realized the value it has and how the the teacher really motivates me. Its worth the time only if you show effort and consistency. This place teaches you a lot of things every practice trust me.

I have been a student at Traditional Taekwondo for 12 years. I have been training with Sahbum-Nim Nestor since I was 5 years old. He has been an amazing master. He has helped me grow into the person I am today. I am now comfortable in my own body, confident in my self, and confident in my ability. I feel more safe when going out with friends because I have been learning how to defend myself. This is all thanks to Master Nestor!

My name is Hector Lopez and I started when I was about 9 years old. Sahbum-Nim and Kyosahnim Darius has taught me to become strong in mind and spirit throughout my years in TaekwonDo. I feel secure and thoughtful when Im out with any of my family or whatever :). Ms Lisbeth has been like a TaeKwonDo mom to all of us :D. I definitely recommand this Taekwondo center for any children 3 years old and over and adults. I luv you all

Very friendly and professional as soon as you join you become part of a big family, my boyfriend is been coming to this dojo since he was 11, with the few times I’ve been there the teacher makes sure his students and parents/guest wear mask, keep the appropriate distance between students as well as offering hand sanitizer when you walk in, if you are thinking on signing up for class DO IT! You won’t regret it.

Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self Control, and Indomitable Spirit. These five things can be learned through the teachings of Master Nestor. He is the best master out there and often gives valuable lessons to his students. Showing up to training is important for the success of one who is looking to improve and work their way up! You have to push yourself to meet the standards and expectations of your master and fellow students. You have to try hard no matter how many times you fail and this place surrounds students in a positive environment thats encourages them to do their absolute best. Everything that is taught here is valuable to life as a whole and Im grateful to have taken the opportunity to train strictly under Master Nestor. His passion for passing on his knowledge of Tae Kwon Do to his students is something to marvel at. My love for this place only grows the more I train. If there is anyone new who is interested, I would 110% recommend sitting down with Master Nestor and Lisbeth, his program director. She is very kind and coordinates all the plans very well. Definitely give her a call for more info!

Nelson, miss Lizbeth and Darius are amazing. They have done wonderful things for my son David. My son was constantly getting I. Trouble at school, he has made tremendous strides since enrolling him in classes about 6 months ago. Thank you so much for helping to get him out of his shell and teaching him more self control and discipline. If you’re thinking of enrolling your child here don’t hesitate.

I have been a student of Traditional Tae-Kwondoe for 10 years. I would recommend Tae-Kwondoe because it teaches you self-control, courtesy, Integrity, perseverance, and Indomitable spirit. But it is all thanks to Master Nestor and Mrs.lisbeth and Kyosahnim Darius. Tae Kwondoe helped me because I feel safe when I go places with family or friends. I am thankful to be taught by Master Nestor and Kyosahnim Darius.

I signed up my son for Taekwondo classes a few months ago, and it has been SO good for him, exercise wise and in regards to behavior/discipline. I even signed him up for summer camp when I saw they offered it, and it was worth every penny. They keep the kids active and take them on field trips daily. Nestor and Lisbeth are amazing and Im so glad we chose to go with Traditional Taekwondo Center of Davie.

We love this studio. My son tried a lot of different activities before Taekwon-do and this is the activity that stuck. Its great self defense for him along with socializing. We have been attending 6 months and plan on going for a very long time to come. The instructors are great. It is a very well structured environment.

This place has been a life saver for my twins. Nestor is an amazing instructor and well respected. My twins have learned so much and has only been attending since February of this year. It is a great way to show kids discipline and build great self esteem. I am glad I chose Traditional Taekwon-do and I will forever be grateful for everything that Nestor has provided and taught my kids.

The Traditional Taekwondo Center has had a remarkably positive affect on my 7 year old son Gabriel and I am delighted! The structure and consistent training of the center solidly grounded in the authentic Martial Arts form of Taekwondo has transformed a fidgety, hyper child having difficulty focusing in school to a confident, academically exceling student who loves a challenge, eagerly anticipating his necessary work to achieve a green belt the very day he tested for his yellow belt. He is truly thriving on the loyalty of the Taekwondo family that has been nurtured by his dedicated Senseis! Absolutely satisfied with my sons progress and the efforts of the center. Highly Recommended!

Taekwondo of Davie is an excellent facility for adults and children. My children have been attending for about a month now and I can see positive changes in their behavior and relationship between them. I would recommend the school to all parents! Kids are also very tired after class, bonus!

Review №34

This is the highest quality of martial art and martial art instruction. The Master is a direct line from the top Taekwondo Grandmaster. Each individual student gets his full attention, respect, and energy. For any age that is interested in being a true martial artist I could not recommend strongly enough Master Nestors school in Davie. I have trained in several arts in different parts of the country and it doesnt get any better than this.

My son and I have been training Tae Kwon Do for several years. It has been one of the best experiences of my life. Martial Arts is a way of life that improves mind, body, and spirit. Now that I have obtained my black belt I feel a calling to continue and improve daily.

Thank you Sensai Cerda and Chino for your dedication, hard work and commitment to your students. To any parent looking to see positive change in their child, I highly recommend The Traditional Taekwondo Center of Davie!Today I took my child to his first tournament. I have never seen an instructor work so tirelessly with his troop, with the concern as if they were his own.

Review №39

The instructor Sahbahnim is amazing. The way he is with the kids is irreplaceable, and I always recommend parents to register their children here. Being a 5-star business is not easy and it takes a lot of hard work and sacrifice to keep this reputation, but this Tae Kwon Do is the best! My son’s request every summer is to join their summer camp, and because he goes to school in Weston, I regret not doing the after-school program as well. This year I’ll try since my son needs the structure and discipline. Every child is different, but Sahbahnim knows what each child needs and pursues it to the fullest. Thank you!!!!! We love you!!!

Master Cerda is a wonderful instructor. Ive been training under him for the past ten years, and he is definitely one of the best instructors in Florida. I definitely recommend this school for those martial artists looking for a good workout and to challenge their body in different ways.

My son has been going to TTDCD for aftercare and training for 2 years now, and he absolutely loves it. The instructors lead by Nestor are all very professional and friendly. They treat the kids fair and they teach them about respect and manners while building their confidence. All while learning Taekwon-Do in a safe and fun environment.

Review №43

My son has been going to Traditional Tae Kwon Do since he was 4 years old. When he began, he had just been diagnosed on the autism spectrum and had no muscular strength. Three years later, thanks to therapies and the caring team at TTKD after care program, my son is pretty much out of the spectrum and has improved immensely in strength and coordination. We will forever be grateful! And now our daughter has joined her brother and loves it too! :)

I trained previously at a different school for about seven years, then I transferred to traditional tae kwon do about three years ago. If you’re looking to train and traditional taekwondo in South Florida there is only one place to go and it is here. Master Nestor is the best there is, and he teaches true Martial Arts.

Everyone at the Traditional TaeKwon-do Center is so great. It is like you are surrounded by family. They work great with all of the kids. Wonderful service and Nestor is the best Taekwon-do instructor I have ever seen. He is patient with the new students, very encouraging but also pushes you to always keep improving. Will continue to go here and will take my future children to learn a great skill, make good friends and learn discipline of the art.

Awesome school! Not a mix match of different styles; this school does Taekwondo beautifully. My kids, whoa are now 21 and 17, have been with this school since they were 6 years old. I believe the confidence they gained from TKD has helped them in all aspects of their life. Plus, the training has made them all round good athletes!

Deeply technique based, Emphasis on discipline, unlined by perseverance and self-control. The physical and mental transformation speaks for itself. 55lbs less, real strength, and less stress. The GM is the real deal.

Review №48

High caliber school lead by an experienced instructor. Sabonim is wonderful at building mind, body, and spirit. Consider this establishment for training at all ages and for all levels. I would love to see a night dedicated (similar Weds dedicated form night) to kicking drills (all Taekwondo kicks) OUT of block and hand combinations (kicks across the floor, with the paddles, two kick two kick). Finish the night off with kick combinations (front, round, 360) to drill the hallmark of Taekwondo (kicking art). Thank you Sabonim for running such a wonderful school. Your dedication to the art is evident every sessions I attend.

My son has been going to Traditional Taekwon-Do in Davie, for the last 3 years in half. It has been a great school for our son to learn to protect, discipline himself, and be the best he can be internally and physically. The school has been a positive influence on my family. Since, my son has started we have seen such a big improvement with his coordination, strength ability in focusing and self control. We truly believe that Martial Arts has been one of the best decision we have taken for our son, and even more having an amazing Master, Nestor Cerda . I defenitely, would recommend the school, if you are looking for a superior program. Yoni & Julie Aguilar

The best instruction you can find anywhere in south Florida when it comes to TKD. You will be learning martial arts in the same traditional method passed down from the original line that started the discipline of TKD. I am a 27 year old medical student with 2 kids and a wife. For me, I have lost almost 10 lbs, increased in endurance, stamina, will power, flexibility, physical strength and speed, self-awareness and overall improve health. You will have gained the ability to defend yourself and your loved ones. You really will gain so many benefits that I cant even fit in one post. My 9 year old son trains with me as well and we learn and grow together. He has shared many of the benefits that I have, but includes increased focus and grades in school with an attitude of a calm confidence. Counter-intuitive to peoples belief, he hasnt grown more aggressive, but actually has grown softer, more patient, and understanding towards others. He learns discipline, respect, and working towards goals.You will work hard and you will be pushed daily. This not a dojang for the unmotivated, you will work HARD for each belt, which will require almost 6-12 months of training before you advance. Master Nestor, will only advance the deserving. I would also add that, you arent learning just how to fight, but you are learning to become better people and that will be the most difficult and important lesson that you will learn.

I wish there was a higher rating than five, cause thats what ill give. The Instructors are seriously dope and helpful and their training style makes you tougher in others areas beyond Taekwondo.Their evening schedules are very convenient specially for students and if you work in the evenings like me they also offer Saturday morning classes.Price (muy bueno)Training Style (Perfecto)

Review №58

I was so stressed worrying about being able to pick up my young son from kindergarten by 6pm. I searched and searched for an after school program in my area that had comforting reviews and was flexible with pick up time in case of traffic or work related issues. I kept running into TRADITIONAL TAEKWONDO CENTER of DAVIE in every search. I worried maybe he was too young??? But ...like I said, I couldnt escape it in my search (maybe it was fate.) So, I threw up my hands and decided to go up the street and see what all these 5 star reviews were about. The location is really convenient with plenty of parking. The Dojang (facility) was very clean organized and open. I met with the Sabonim (instructor) and felt more at ease; therefore, after speaking to my husband we decided to enroll our son. They pick up my son from school with vehicles equipted with safety boosters. When he arrives at the Dojang, they do homework (about 1hr) and additional staff is provided to assist the children with homework. When homework is completed, the children begin their Taekwondo lessons. Its a GREAT program and believe me I am a CRAZY OVER PROTECTIVE MOM ( my son in my world) so I just cant leave my son with just anyone, and the school is so good about communication; I can easily text and get a reply instantly. I am so thankful to have peace of mind every day that he is safe and enjoys taking lessons. Not only do they teach self defense but self control and self respect. To all the moms out there like me who work crazy hrs and need a peace-of-mind after school care check this place out. Its a terrific school and very affordable.

I can not say enough great things about this school. I trained with this instructor for 10 years. (Due to my location I am no longer with this school), however his instruction taught me perseverance, integrity, courage, empowerment, and many of the basic good morals all people should possess.Tae Kwon Do is a great martial art that concentrates on the fundamentals of many martial art forms, as well as many more modern adaptations that have been created in the martial art industry throughout the years.The most important factor when choosing a martial school is the credibility and knowledge of the instructor, & there is no question Nestor Cerda, of Traditional Taekwon-Do Center of Davie has the qualifications to deliver the graceful message and knowledge the art form has to offer.

Having a special needs daughter, i was searching for a program that would accept her and train her for her health and self discipline. I found Traditional Taekwon-do of Davie and she was signed up two years ago this past February....Unbeknownst to me, five months after her enrollment, having uncontrolled diabetes and weight gain I also started training at age 52.This has been the best two years of my life in a long time, and we have enjoyed our training immensely at the school. I look forward to many more years as we both journey to earning our Black Belts and beyond.I encourage you to start your own journey at my school, Traditional Taekwon-do of Davie.A personal thank you to Grandmaster Nestor Cerda, 5th Dan for pushing us on when we dont think we can....

Grand Master Cerda is an extra-ordinary, no-nonsense instructor. Ive seen him get a student to do things he never thought he could do. GM Cerda studied directly under GM Jae-Hwa KWON for decades and knows his system inside and out. He likes working with kids, even works with handicapped kids, and knows how to get the most out of his students. In Spanish or English, GM Cerda is a great instructor. I highly recommend him.

Great Tae Kwon Do school thats styled after the traditional teachings that isnt like all the others. The instructor Nestor Cerda, has trained most of his life, influences all this students to learn TKD as a lifestyle. Personally, Ive trained for many years and consider it to be one of the best decisions in my adult life.

Review №68

I have been visiting both schools since 2008 and had received myself classes, seminars and private lessons with Sahbum-Nim Cerda. My experience was over the expectation. Master Cerda is a great teacher with a world level skill and a very friendly and patience while working with persons with physical or age limitations. The schools are top of the line, great facilities with parking lot, showers, etc. I highly recommend the Traditional Taekwondo Centers of Davie and Tamarac for any person interested in Martial Arts training, with no age limitation, it is excellent for the little ones, if you trying to improve their gross motor skill, it is great for the teens, helping them to be controlled, disciplined and respectful. But it is awesome for some of us crossing the boundary of the 40ths (or may be a couple of more). Finding excellent improvement of balance, coordination and body rejuvenation!

The best Taekwon-do school in the world ! The owner and teacher of the school, Nestor Cerda, is a true 5th degree Black belt that leaned his techniques from the greatest Korean, Master Kwon. My son loves this school very much !Since he started attending this school, his techniques improved a lot. I am happy with the path that my son his going on.I would recommend Traditional Taekwon-do of Davie to anybody that wants to have their child learn proper traditional Taekwon-do...not like some other schools out there, that just want to take your money !
