TESTIMONIALS

My son Ayden met Mr Martinez as a red stripe...he has been teaching my son Ayden for the past 2 years and now my son is a black belt. Mr. Martinez is great with everyone, even the kids! He can teach at all levels of learning and does it with patience. He is fantastic at what he does and I am so happy to have him as my sons trainer. Mr. Martinez takes pride in what he lives and breaths...Tae Kwon Do!

Thank you sincerely,

Hey there,

Mr. Segundo was a huge

part of my life, he changed my life completely. When I came to Mr. Segundo I was a very over weight guy and thanks to Mr. Segundo I was able to lose a lot of that weight, he's amazing and he really pushes you to your best abilities. I definitely recommend him as a teacher and a friend.

Martinez Taekwondo & Fitness has been my best experience in terms of physical fitness and of course martial arts. The instructor, Mr. Martinez is extrememly easy to learn from and at the same time highly patient. While the atmosphere of the gym is that of people who just want to get better and a perfect place for people who want to have fun, get fit or work on their skills. I have been with Mr. Martinez for the past 5 years and haven't looked back since!

José Martinez has motivated me every step of the way.

It was no easy task, I was in my late fifties when I first walked into his gym. Many times I wanted to quit. I never thought I was good enough.

He never gave up on me, many times he would drive up from Toronto just to help me train.

At age sixty two I tested and passed my Black Belt!!!!! I could have never done it without a great trainer!!

Thanks José

I got the pleasure of being a student of Mr. Segundo. He is a very experienced instructor that has many years under his belt. One of my favorite things I liked about him is that he is very passionate about Taekwondo and you can see this in every class. He pushes students to their potential, but at the same time he has plenty of patience for slower learners or new joiners. Mr. Segundo is highly recommended as a great Taekwondo instructon in Barrie in my books!

I have tried several martial arts and instructors over the past several years and none compare to Mr. Martinez. His dedication and enthusiasm for Taekwon-do as a sport and as a means of self defense is unequalled. He treats both his youth and adult students with respect and brings out the best in everyone. He engages each student individually and works alongside us every class, working as hard as any student.

I've stayed with his school for many years and thanks to him, I'll be testing for my black belt this fall (2015).

I have been training under Mr. Martinez for over six years now, and would reccomend him to anyone looking to learn a martial art. He is an extremely knowledgeable instructor who shows amazing dedication to his students, regardless of age, experience, and physical ability. It is easy to tell just by watching him teach that he loves what he does and is very good at it. When I first joined his gym I never thought I would go very far in Taekwon-Do, but Mr. Martinez always kept me motivated and wanting to learn more - thanks to him I now hold a Second Degree Black Belt!

Mr. Martinez has been my son's instructor for over 5 years. Jake came to Mr. Martinez with a passion to learn Taedwondo affter attending a birthday party. Jake was only turning 4 when he started but with José's amazing ability to teach any age and level, thrived under his leadershihp. My daughter also took up Taekwondo for many years and learned a lot about self assurance and dedication.

When we are at tournaments, other people can pick out studens of Mr. Martinez as he holds such a high regard for learning "the right way' and to work hard.

I could not imagine anyone else as Jake's instructor. Mr. Martinez has dedicated his life tohis passion of TKD and is truly a role model and inspiration to the sport!

We look forward to what the future holds with Martinez Taekwondo!

Jake wanted me to add that he has loved learning how to break boards. :)
