Modern Taekwondo Academy

Master Evon is definitely one of the top martial arts instructors. I am also in the industry and have tremendous respect for this humble yet highly skilled martial artist & athlete. You will not be disappointed with his care and instruction for you and your child.

We are thrilled to have found Modern Taekwondo Academy for our daughters! Our six year old is loving it and we plan to enroll our 3.5 year old into the pre-​k program. Master Evon is patient and treats everyone who walks through the doors with respect. He also has a great teaching style that incorporates the fundamentals of Tae Kwon Do along with practical self-​defense techniques. If time permitted, I would sign up myself!

Master Evon is awesome with kids. My niece and nephew thoroughly enjoy the classes and they can’t wait to go to class to learn and have fun. The facility is a big open space but they’ve got super comfy couches to sit on, and free wi-​fi so I can surf while watching the niece and nephew. Definitely recommended

Master Evon is an excellent teacher and he is also exceptionally good with toddlers and kids. He is gentle and fun, yet teaches discipline to them. This is hard to find. He teaches the TKD forms correctly (you will be surprised how many instructors fail to do this, especially with kids) and participates in WTF tournaments, if you are interested in regional, national, Olympic TKD.

This is an awesome place to start learning Tae Kwon Do. You will have a great time working out. I highly recommend!

Mr. Evon is an excellent instructor in all aspects of Taekwondo. He’s especially gifted in working with youth. My two oldest children (daughter — 8, son — 7) have been learning TKD from him for the past 4 years. He’s really drawn out a ton of confidence in them at the studio, at school, and at home. They were quite timid when they first started and now they’re competing in regional tournaments. When my youngest hits 3 years old, we’re signing her up too. His a real gem and I highly recommend him.

Searching for a martial arts school should not be taken lightly! For my daughter who has now been doing Taekwondo for over 2 years now, I checked out a dozen schools before selecting a great school (Taekwon Kids in Mountain View).
The decision should not be made at whim because bad schools are horrible and once you start at a lame school the foundation and fundamentals of Taekwondo will not be attained which means you have spent a ton of $$ and time getting to meaningless black belt! So moms and dads, take your time and find the right place for your kids or if you are looking for yourself, do your due diligence!!! You do not want to go to a school that is there to just make money and churn you through to black belt and unfortunately, more schools are bad than good!
I am lucky; this new school is affiliated with the amazing school that is now far away since moving. And my daughter is allowed to cross train here. The owner/​head instructor/​master at MTA (Modern Taekwondo Academy) in short ROCKS! He is dedicated to Taekwondo and just as importantly to his students!!!
After you look around, you will see how amazing this school is and you will make the right choice and enroll yourself or your kids here! I encourage you to do the trials and experience for yourself what MTA has to offer. William Evon embodies the essence of Taekwondo and you will be so lucky to have him as a teacher.

Modern Taekwondo is an awesome studio! My daughter takes the Pre-​K class and loves it! Mr. Evon is really great with the kids, she is having a blast!

I attended the Grand Opening and am pleased to see such a great service in the community. Excellent purpose, friendly Instructors/​owners, and clean facility for kids & adults. Anxious to get my daughter started!

It is my 4 year old son’s first time with MTA, and he’s loving it. He’s used to be tough on his little brother and friends; but since taking Taekwando class with Master Evon, he’s now more gentle and protective. Class is about 3 – 4 kids, at a very affordable price.
I’m thinking about enrolling myself with MTA soon. And my youngest son will be next year.
Highly recommend Master Evon.
