My name is Gerry Daly and myself and my daughter Sophia Daly have been members of impact taekwondo for 2 and 3 years now ( me - 2 years and Sophia 3 years). We absolutely love Impact Taekwondo and are so thankful to Master Brown and all the coaching staff for everything they do for all us students and families of the students. My daughter is a very shy 11 year old girl and I cannot thank Master Brown enough for the work he has done in helping her and succeeding in getting her to the sociable little girl that she has become. Impact taekwondo has a place for every level of kid weather your kid is shy, doesn't fit into other sports, just wants a fun class, wants to learn competition taekwondo forms, board braking and sparring. Master Brown and taekwondo in general will install a level of respect into your kids that you have never seen before towards there piers and people in general. The classes are very fun and the kids gain so much confidence in themselves as they strive for the next belt. I personally myself am 49 years old and was a soccer guy all my life and thought that my athletic stuff was behind me until I met Master Brown and he convinced me to give it a go and within 2 years he had me competing at 2 national championships in sparring. Master Brown pushed me and made me confident to train hard and compete with all these young athletes and older ones. Master Brown is a top level coach that represented Jamaica and United Kingdom all over the world winning many national opens and competing in the Athens Olympics. I also want to give a special shout out to Master Jayson Grant who doesn't get as much recognition for impact taekwondo as he should because he specializes in competitive sparring and only x amount of people gets to see his dedication and expertise. He also is an elite successful athlete and represented his country winning opens etc.., this guys knowledge of taekwondo is second to none and Impact Taekwondo is lucky to have him on our team. I am also very grateful to coach Cal and coach Master Wilson for everything they had done for...

Dear Master Craig Brown,
It’s been a few years since we first stepped into Impact Taekwondo, and I want to take a moment to reflect on just how far we’ve come.
When my son first joined your program, he was a shy kid, curious but cautious. Right away, you and your team welcomed him with warmth, structure, and belief. I remember writing then how excited we were to see him eager to attend, how he was being challenged in meaningful ways, and how quickly the Impact Taekwondo spirit had taken root in the Milton community.
Fast forward to today: that same boy is now a Black Belt, a national champion, and most importantly, a confident, humble, grounded young leader. Watching him grow under your guidance has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life as a parent.
You have not only built a program that teaches kicks and forms, you’ve built a movement rooted in discipline, confidence, character, and Ubuntu. The values you instill ripple through our homes, our schools, and our neighborhoods. You’ve helped turn potential into performance, doubt into drive, and timid steps into bold, world-class movement.
To you, and your entire family, thank you. Your presence is a gift to this community. Your mentorship is life-shaping. And your belief in our kids makes all the difference.
We continue to stand with you and cheer for every child stepping onto the mat — and maybe even onto the Olympic stage in the next cycle or two.
With deep gratitude and...
Read moreOur son has been attending Impact Taekwondo for about a year and a half now—he started on his 4th birthday—and it has been a truly incredible experience. He looks forward to every class and has gained so much more than just athletic skills.
From the start, we were impressed by how engaging and well-organized the classes are. The instructors do a fantastic job teaching not only the technical aspects of taekwondo, but also essential life lessons around respect, discipline, and emotional control. These values are woven into every class in a way that children of all ages can understand and apply.
As parents, we’ve loved watching our son grow in both confidence and character. He’s learned how to listen, stay focused, and handle challenges with a calm mindset—all while having a great time.
We’re so grateful to the team at Impact Taekwondo for creating such a positive, supportive environment. The care and intention they put into their instruction truly shows. We can’t recommend them...
