I heard a bad comment about your clubs
We have been open 30 years – some will love us, some will hate us. Every club / school will have good and bad comments written about them, even reviews that are unfair and not needed.
Look at it like this – some love Sainsbury’s and shop there weekly, some don’t like it so much. At St Albans Tae Kwon-Do, we don’t bad mouth other clubs or styles. We simply deliver clubs that suit the majority and enjoy what we do best.
Negativity is not needed and we want no part of it – positivity is how we live always.
