I recently became a student here and Grand Master Hill is just the best! He’s so respectful and is very patient! You’re not only getting the tools to defend yourself but also lessons we might need to know for our typical day to day. I recommend anyone who is interested or has little ones to come down and learn from Grand Master Hill. It’s a fun class, a family oriented atmosphere and such a great workout! One thing I love is Grand Master Hill honors those who have taught him and keeps honor and tradition in the Martial Arts world. Also LGBTQ Friendly!

I found Master Hill and Golden Tiger Tae Kwon Do after five years of searching for a martial arts school in Orlando. While there are many schools in the Orlando area, none were what I wanted. I sought a school that was welcoming of all students regardless of age, body type, or physical limitations, as well as an instructor who could give personalized training to that diverse group of students. More than that, though, I wanted an instructor who could take my previous years of traditional and Olympic-style Tae Kwon Do and make them useful, while challenging me to become better. I wanted more than someone being okay with sloppy technique and passing anyone who is willing to pay along to the next belt.Master Hill offers a unique structure by incorporating Tae Kwon Do, Hap Ki Do, and his other martial arts training as well as self-defense. He also has the knowledge and patience to train groups and individuals, usually breaking the class into smaller groups so to better hone specific skills or techniques. He takes a great amount of pride in his students and his school by doing more for his students than just teaching martial arts. He serves as a mentor to many of the students and has a very open door policy for anything that could be bothering a student. He can be our best friend, our biggest champion, and our instructor all at once.Master Hill was able to build upon my martial arts background and, I believe, make me a better technical competitor, a better fighter, and get my physical health back to a place it hadnt been in years. This is not the kind of school where you will become a black belt overnight. You will be expected to work and sweat (and maybe feel some pain, too) to earn the next belt, but I believe those who are looking for the best that Orlando has to offer, owe it to themselves to at least watch a couple classes before going anywhere else.

I was brand new to Tae Kwon Do at 21 years old. Master Hill helps you feel as comfortable as possible, and really wants to see you do well. Ive been here about 8 months and I know Ive improved so much from where I started. Its a small school with a big heart. The style of Tae Kwon Do he teaches is slightly modified to fit real-world needs, because one of his most important goals is to make sure you know how to protect yourself. Hes a Grand Master, trust me--- he knows what hes doing. Building these kind of skills inevitably builds confidence, which is especially cool to witness with some of the other students. Thanks Master Hill (:

There is a very good feel to the school, Master Hill takes special care to ensure that his students all display excellent technique and that everyone enjoys what theyre doing. He makes sure everyone leaves the school with more than they came in with.

Im very pleased and happy to have been taken my son for almost a year to train taekwondo with Master Hill, the atmosphere is very encouraging, Master Hill is very patient and has been teaching my son to level up in his techniques in a way that its its not rushed or stressful but instead gaining confidence and motivation. Ill definitively recommend to anyone interested in taekwondo, to sign up for his class.

IVE ONLY JUST STARTED PRACTICING TAEKWONDO GOING ON MY 4TH WEEK! AND IM GLAD I CHOOSE GOLDEN TIGER AS MY DOJANG. GRANDMASTER HILL IS OF GREAT INSPIRATION AND IM FORTUNATE TO BE ABLE TO TRAIN WITH HIM. THE PROGRESS IM SEEING IN MYSELF IS AMAZING. NORMALLY IF I WERE TRAINING ANYWHERE ELSE I WOULD ONLY BE ABLE TO DO SO A FEW DAYS A MONTH DUE TO MY FULL TIME JOB, BUT GRANDMASTER HILL IS ALL ABOUT MOLDING GREAT QUALITY STUDENTS AND TAKES OUT HIS PERSONAL TIME TO MEET MY SCHEDULE SO I CAN TRAIN! IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A GREAT PLACE TO LEARN MARTIAL ARTS OR JUST GET IN THE BEST SHAPE POSSIBLE GOLDEN TIGER TAEKWONDO IS WHERE YOU NEED TO BE.

Where do I start. About 5 months ago I was looking to pick up martial arts again and having studied TKD as a kid I figured I would start there and then look to other martial arts or even a mixed MA school if I couldnt find what I was looking for. After calling and web searching almost every TKD school in the Orlando area and only finding belt mills and kid-centric places I was about ready to look to another style that caters more towards serious adult students when I found the website for Golden Tiger.Finally a TKD school that not only teaches the great kicks and formal techniques we all associate with TKD, but also blends hapkido and korean kickboxing to make you a more well rounded fighter with a viable mixed martial art arsenal for self defense.So I went for my trial lesson, signed up that night, and havent looked back. Months later Im so pleased with how my life has changed for the better. Im more flexible, stronger, more confident, have more fun, and can defend myself already should the need arise. Bottom line, Grandmaster Hill teaches you a more practical application of TKD than the Olympic style the more traditional schools teach.Also worth noting is that Grandmaster Hill has a flexible schedule with options for people like me who work in the service industry and cannot attend many classes in the evenings. There is also a strong contingent of adult students, which as a 29 year old returning to the dojang for the first time in over a decade, made me feel a lot better than the schools that were clearly focused on being after school kid care facilities with those one or two adult students in the back corner (we all know those schools).Just a word of warning: You will have to work for everything including your rank. Theres no progressing forward until a technique is properly mastered which means youll most likely need to practice incessantly at home if you want to succeed. But you will have Grandmaster Hill and a team of really awesome advanced rank student instructors there with you every step of the way.
