"My kids had great time. Master Acevedo and whole team is very supportive."

"Master Acevedo is an amazing instructor. He creates a welcoming environment where all students are encouraged to succeed. I highly recommend checking out this school for you or your child."

"As a Instructor In Training (ITP). Taekwondo for me has impacted me with more friends I get to know. It also helps refresh my mind and discipline. The people with determination, is always likely and able to push the limits, as I have done it myself before many times. -MarkusDee"

"Great place with the best instructors, both for kids and adults!"

"My kids know 100% TKD Because of them!"

"My child loves it here. The owner and staff pay personal attention to every child and adult that walks through the door. My child started classes at 5 and has been there for over 1 year. The instruction focuses on TKD techniques and skills but also on developing character, self esteem and attention span. My child enjoys going so much. He has NEVER said he doesn’t want to go to class and runs in every week excited to see everyone. They have extra events at the studio and my son gets excited and always asks to attend. I have seen many benefits of these classes in my son. He has increased confidence, coordination, strength, attention span, motivation for working towards goals, and respect for elders. Thank you Cho’s Legacy!"

"You will not find a better place for your child’s taekwondo instruction than Cho’s and a better instructor than Master Acevedo. He is unbelievably good with the kids and a class act all around. He really gets to know the kids and is such a positive influence on them, even with school and in their personal lives. We could not be happier with what our daughter got out of his program (she’s off to college in the fall and has been with him for 4 years)."

"Great school for kids to build character, discipline and confidence. The instructors are amazing and patient with all the kids. We’ve only started and I can already see a positive impact in my little guy’s overall improvement."

"Absolutely the best decision we ever made! I signed my son Noah up at Cho’s Legacy when he was just 4 years old—he’s now almost 9, and he still absolutely loves it. From day one, the experience has been nothing short of amazing. Master Acevedo is incredible at what he does—he has a true gift for teaching and a natural connection with the kids. You can see how much they look up to him and how much he genuinely cares about their growth, both on and off the mat. His assistant instructor, Tawiah, is equally fantastic—encouraging, patient, and always there to help. Together, they create an environment where kids feel motivated, respected, and excited to learn. One of the things I appreciate most as a parent is how communicative the Cho’s Legacy team is. They check in with updates on your child’s progress, which shows just how invested they are. And don’t even get me started on Parents Night Out—such a thoughtful bonus that gives us a well-deserved break while the kids have a blast! If you’re looking for a place that builds confidence, discipline, and more, look no further. Cho’s Legacy is truly one of a kind! :)"

"I took a class here 20 years ago with instructor Charlie. I doubt very much he's still there but he was a great and patient instructor."

"Cho's Legacy is a wonderful martial arts center where my special needs son had the opportunity to grow in skill and character for the past two years. Master Acevedo is an amazing teacher. He has been supportive and shown care to son throughout his martial arts journey, whether by sending a handwritten note to celebrate belt rank milestone or birthday to accommodating my son's constant need to know what happens next by providing a schedule for me to go over with him in advance (this was for a summer camp week). We are thankful to Master Acevedo and his staff for making TKD such a great experience for my son, though he has now moved on to other interests."

"Master Acevedo & Instructor Tawiah are fantastic. They are thoughtful, caring, inspiring and funny. Cho’s Legacy is an amazing martial arts school. I’m very satisfied with the school, staff and my kid’s progress. Thank you, Master Acevedo!"

"Highly recommend Cho's Legacy in Morris Plains! Master Acevedo and his staff run a highly efficient business and very welcoming classes for new students of all ages and skill levels. They lead from the front and teach fundamentals of confidence, discipline, and respect. The best part is they make it fun and engaging for beginners and all belt levels. Great programs, lot's of communication, and additional optional activities for all ages. Our young daughter was interested in tae kwon do as a beginner, loved the classes, and started to advance at a great pace. She takes pride in what she learns at Cho's Legacy, and it has positively impacted her daily habits and responsibilities."

"Master Acevedo is a Saint! Our 5-year-old son, on the spectrum, attends private lessons with Master Acevedo. Master Acevedo has the patience (of a saint) and discipline when teaching. He looks and finds different strategies in teaching to accommodate our son and his needs. He is always positive and encouraging. We have seen amazing progress in our son and are greatly appreciative of Cho's Legacy and their outstanding program. Highly Recommend!"

"I truly cannot say enough about how AMAZING Cho's is. We were looking for an extra curricular activity my daughter would be interested in longer than a month. This was it!!! Immediately after the 1:1 she asked when we could go back. She is more confident, prideful, disciplined, and respectful, all the while learning the skills of Tae Kwon Do. You are not just another child here. Instructor and Master know every kid and parents name. They take the time to follow up, call you to check in and see how we are liking class, if we have any suggestions, and we have even received a text video about how proud they were of the progress that day in class!! These kids feel how important they are being part of something. That to me is priceless <3"

"Cho’s Legacy has become a second home for our son. Master Acevedo is an incredible leader. He works everyone very hard but with compassion, understanding and an eye toward keeping it fun. He tailors his teaching approach to each student individually so that they can learn optimally. Thank you, Master Acevedo, for such an incredible dojo!"

"I’m so excited for my 10 year old to start his TKD journey under Master Acevedo’s guidance! Signed him up today because after his private lesson he wants to take his 1st class as soon as tomorrow! Let’s go!"

"Edit 4/24… It’s now been about 5 years, we have a black belt and a red belt enrolled at Cho’s. Both of our older kids love it and our third is excited to join when she’s old enough. The all new dojang is now in Morris Plains and is a great space for the kids to continue to learn and grow. They have added an additional instructor who is just as wonderful as Master Acevedo. My wife and I definitely recommend Cho’s for your kiddos. —————————————— We love Cho’s Legacy TKD. Our son has been a student at Cho’s for a year and a half. He has made such great progress in the areas of respect, focus, and has learned that he needs to practice to improve. This martial art school is very clean and safe. There are virtual, in Dojang socially distant and outdoor options. It has been a great distraction during these trying times. Master Acevedo is absolutely amazing with the kids and gives each one the attention they deserve. I could not give this place a higher recommendation. It is definitely worth the time and investment. I would like to directly respond to one of the older comments below. We are in no way required to make a review as part of a belt promotion. My son has been in the school for a year and a half and we are happily posting this review on our own accord."
