Fantastic experience: Amazing program. I added my child at age 5 in hopes that it would help with weight, social skills, and leadership. The staff members are professional and very caring. They demand effort, hard work and respect from all students. Classes are very affordable. Teachers communicate very well with parents. I wholeheartedly endorse this program.

Fantastic experience: We have been training with Vision for 7 years now, my children love coming to Cary Maynard to work with Sr. Master Wegmann and Mister Robustelli. They love doing Team Sparring and special sparring seminars here. If you need focus, discipline and good physical workout for your children this is the place to go.

Fantastic experience: Nearly all of the instructors at this location are top notch, but Senior Master Julia Wegmann is the crowning jewel. She is very knowledgeable, professional, friendly and also extremely competent in teaching younger students. If you have younger kids (5yo-12) that want to take TKD go here. You will not be disappointed.

Negative experience: Well, first of all, this is a scammer, my child went there for a trial lesson and he didn't like it! and for 6 months they have been constantly withdrawing money from my account

Fantastic experience: Our daughter enjoys the classes. She appreciates the leaders and likes the interactions with other students. The focus required has been beneficial for her.

Fantastic experience: Our family has been practicing for over 8 months, we have been very happy. Master Wegman is very good and patient with the kids. They learn tae kwon do skill, respect, discipline, self defense etc. Ms. Sundar is very helpful when we have questions and concerns. Basically everyone at VMA-Cary is very kind. We enjoy practice at VMA. Hope to continue with many more good years! Thank you - The Narewski

Fantastic experience: Love vision academy, very caring for students and my daughter loves it

Fantastic experience: Awesome place to take your kiddos to learn about discipline and get trained and the same time. The staff is always encouraging the kids to do good things and help us as a parent rewarding good behavior. Thank you so much

Fantastic experience: Senior Master Julia Wegmann is a fantastic martial arts instructor. She is great at breaking complicated moves down into easily comprehensible steps, and she helped me figure out modifications to accommodate a physical limitation. Most importantly, she is super friendly and supportive! Highly recommend for kids & adults alike!

Fantastic experience: The instructors here are kind and patient teachers who create a safe, supportive and fun TKD community where my kids are growing in skill and character. Both of my kids feel seen and known and I couldn’t ask for more than that. I love that they want to come as many classes as possible!

Fantastic experience: Our family has loved watching our two boys learn Taekwondo with the wonderful group of instructors at Vision.

Fantastic experience: We have been going to VMA for 4 years and absolutely love it. Master Wegman is great with the kids and it has taught our son so much about perseverance. We look forward to many more years and many more black belts.

Fantastic experience: Great experience. My son loves to go there.

Fantastic experience: My niece and nephew absolutely love being apart of this martial school. Amazing leadership program that helps build self esteem and confidence.

Fantastic experience: My 6 year old son has been attending once a week. Teaches him discipline and how to defend himself. I love it and he loves it too! Great teachers!

Positive experience: Overall I enjoy the classes and feel their program is competitively priced. I have been enrolled with my daughter for 1.5 years. My 8yo recently decided to drop out once our contract was up, but I have continued. I do not like having to sign a 1 year or 3 year contract though, and not a huge fan of the requirements to break the contract. I'm also a bit irritated that some of the classes and gear are only available to students of their "leadership" program, which of course costs more than just the standard.

Fantastic experience: My 9 year old has been coming here for a couple years and loves it. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing! They are so patient with the students. They are able to get the kids engaged and focused while also having fun. Would certainly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Great place for your children. It teaches them great leadership, respect, confidence, and other important skills.

Fantastic experience: We’ve enjoyed the entire staff. The instructors are amazing and my son has been making such awesome progress.

Fantastic experience: My 6 year old brother is currently enrolled in their beginners program, and it had improved his confidence and respect greatly. He was a shy kid that was hesitant to engage in anything if he doesn't see someone familiar. Now, he's being a leader in his classroom while excelling in his classes. Every time he comes home from his lessons, he always eager to show me and my parents what he learned. I cannot express how much Vision Martial Arts have been a positive for my brother and family. I also joined the 6 weeks program during the summer and it was so much fun. It was affordable and allowed me to work on my physical health since I then had an obligation. It was amazing and I highly encourage any one who is busy to try the 6 weeks program just to dedicate some time in the day for yourself.

Fantastic experience: Vision Martial arts is an amazing place to learn Taekwondo. Senior Master Wegmann has a gift for connecting with her students and making everyone believe that nothing is impossible to achieve in class with practice. All of the instructors genuinely care for the students. My family and I have been members for almost 2 years.

Fantastic experience: We've been practicing with Master Wegmann for about a year now. What started as twice weekly lessons for our son has turned into a family membership with at least one of us taking class 4 nights a week. There's classes for everyone, the instructors are so friendly and personable and it's clear they care about each students success. The leadership program has been helpful for all three of our kids, developing each of them in areas whey they weren't confident in their skills. This is a great school for any age and any level of experience!

Fantastic experience: Ms. Lebovich and Sr. Master Wegmann and can’t forget Mr. Ti, they are absolutely amazing and I have seen a great difference in my daughters confidence level and strength since being with Vision Martial Arts.

Fantastic experience: Master Wegmans is so great with the kids! Very engaging even to the very small children and gets them excited about the programs. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: The best place to come! All of my kids enjoy every lesson they do.

Fantastic experience: Maddox is 4yo and has absolutely LOVED his experience with Vision Martial Arts! The instructors interactions with the young kids has been simply amazing! His behavior at home has improved tremendously! Thank you for such a great learning environment and experience!

Fantastic experience: My daughter has grown so much with VMA! She thinks it’s fun and a great educational opportunity.

Fantastic experience: The instructors are kind and supportive, ensuring everyone can learn. They continue teaching past black belt, continue learning to be better instructors, and support their fellow instructors.

Fantastic experience: The staff at Vision Martial Arts are helpful, skilled, knowledgeable, and caring. They help parents teach their children to be good citizens and grow in confidence and strength. These are skills that will assist them in life as they set goals and accomplish more than they thought they could do. They are also great with adults. My daughter started and then got the rest of the family to join and together we are becoming black belts.

Fantastic experience: Our son attends this academy and loves it! Nothing but wonderful things!!!

Fantastic experience: I have attended class here with my kids for the last 4 years. The instructors really know how to teach children and keep them engaged.

Fantastic experience: Master Wegman and the rest of the staff here have been exceptional. I’ve really enjoyed watching my 8 year old son’s progression over the past few years.

Fantastic experience: Our son (6 years old) has really enjoyed learning from Master Wegman and the staff at the Cary location. He’s learned a lot, had fun and has come a long way in 2 months!

Fantastic experience: My 6 year old daughter absolutely loves taking karate classes. When asked if she wants to continue or take up dancing she without hesitation said she wants to stay in Karate. I highly recommend, the staff are super friendly, supportive of the students and all around awesome.

Fantastic experience: My six year old daughter has been attending Vision martial arts for over a year and loves it. It has great structure and discipline and is engaging and fun. The instructors are great with kids and make the environment positive and meaningful threading life skills in with training. Teaching helps with attention and respect as well as coordination and confidence. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a new hobby/ sport.

Fantastic experience: Awesome martial arts program. I have been here for 13 years and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Senior Master Wegmann is wonderful with kids and adults. She has the energy and the personality to keep students in her class engaged! A++++

Fantastic experience: My son loves it here it is a great class environment offered 2xs a week. They offer great options for a working family with many different days and classes. The communication between the staff and parents are awesome. I am so glad we chose here.

Fantastic experience: Not only is this karate class the most affordable I have found in the rdu area but it is achieving every personal goal I wanted for my son he has gained confidence and became more disciplined. Thank you

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Vision Martial Arts for 11 years. As a 15 year old, I have learned so much. Vision has not only taught me all about Taekwondo, but has taught me many life lessons, such is courage, respect, and perseverance. All of the instructors at Vision push me to do my best to help pursue my goals. I highly recommend Vision Martial Arts to kids and adults of all ages.

Fantastic experience: Vision Martial Arts taekwondo is a great way to keep the family active. We have been students of Vision for many years now. The Vision instructors have all helped us build confidence in our selves. It has had a positive influence on my son. Taekwondo has helped him to be confident, respectful and to always have a positive attitude. Vision is like an extended family who learns and grows together. We have many friends at Vision and enjoy training with Vision Martial Arts.

Fantastic experience: Vision Taekwondo has been an instrumental part of helping build my daughters self confidence. The instructors are very professional and encourage each child to work hard to reach their full potential. They make each class enjoyable and beneficial. Once you are a part of this you feel like family.

Fantastic experience: I trained at the Cary location for over ten years as a young adult and now have a daughter in the Tiny Tigers program. The caliber of taekwondo instruction I received allowed me to compete at a high level and the life skills I learned were invaluable. I look forward to watching my young daughter grow as both a person and an athlete with instructors that I know and trust.

Fantastic experience: Great place to learn Taekwondo! Super nice and professional. Communicates well and is great with their students of all ages.

Fantastic experience: This program is exceptional. The staff are highly trained, professional and genuinely enjoy what they do. My son progressed through the program to attain his first degree black belt by 9yrs old and is now working to towards his second degree belt. In addition to martial art skills he has developed focus, discipline and leadership skills. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: My family has been attending this academy for 3 years. We have loved the positive changes seen in our children 1. Added confidence to tackle the craziness of this year 2. Improved focus in being able to handle the virtual school days 3. Exercise to get that energy out 4. Motivation to improve themselves and do better. I could go on and on about the positives in my kids. The adults have even picked up priceless skills to help get through this pandemic and the challenges brought on with these new obstacles. As a parent I think the biggest thing is the village we now have in our martial arts family. Anytime we have a concern, someone from the academy is right there to help us figure out a solution and reach that end goal. I can’t say enough about how wonderful this place is.

Fantastic experience: We started Vision Martial Arts when our son was 4 years old. He is now 15! My wife and I also started classes shortly after him. Over all this has been a positive and exciting adventure for the entire family. Taekwondo is great physical exercise as well as a great emotional bond. We have attended several tournaments over the years traveling the country, seeing new places and making many new friends from around the world who also enjoy Taekwondo. It has been something that the whole family can relate to and enjoy together. All the instructors at Vision are all professional, courteous and can relate to children as young as 4 to adult students. I highly recommend Vision Martial Arts for the entire family.

Fantastic experience: Great place! Highly recommend to anyone!!!!

Fantastic experience: A great martial arts academy. The instructors are wonderful with kids and help build their self confidence while teaching valuable life skills. I would highly recommend Vision Martial Arts.

Fantastic experience: My 8-year-old has just finished his 2nd year at Vision Martial Arts. He loves it, and I appreciate how easy it is to schedule the classes around our other activities. The instructors do a great job at motivating the kids to focus and do their best.

Fantastic experience: Great online classes to help our kids stay active and learn something new over the past months. We are so glad we found Vision during all the time at home this year!

Fantastic experience: We love this school! My daughter has been taking classes for a little over 6 months now and we have seen a fantastic improvement in her focus and confidence! She is five years old and is determined to earn her 9th degree black belt.

Fantastic experience: My family has been practicing Taekwondo with Vision for over 5 years. It has been a wonderful experience and we now have 2 black belts and one "almost" black belt in our house. Senior Master Wegman is a fantastic instructor and is amazing with children. I have also been impressed how they were able to pivot quickly during this crazy year of 2020 and offer Zoom and outdoor classes until it was safe to go back into the studio. Their Covid practices are top notch and we all feel very safe practicing at Vision. Also, the camps that they offer (Star Wars, Harry Potter, Zombie, etc) are always so much fun for my kids in the summer.

Fantastic experience: People come to martial arts for all kinds of reasons: exercise, fear, self-esteem, body calming and so forth. This is not the only martial arts school I have seen, but it is the only one I have seen that reaches such a diverse group of kids with different needs and challenges. The regular classes help kids stay in a calm focused state, so they are not making decisions out of fear or anxiety. The leadership classes teach them how to make good decisions in that space, and of course, to lead. This school makes a good community.

Fantastic experience: Awesome instructors with kids best interest at heart. Excellent role models!!! Would definitely recommend this school without reservations!

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been attending for three years. When she first started, the classes were focused equally on form and fun. As they advance through the belt levels, instructors ask for more out of the students. It’s done so naturally and the instructors still keep class fun that it feels like a magic trick. The instructors are excellent and my daughter has enjoyed her time here!

Fantastic experience: Great excersize for entire family while learning discipline, respect and self confidence along the way.

Fantastic experience: I've trained at this academy for 25 years (yes, they've been at this location for that long), and have no intention of leaving any time soon. That alone should tell you what you need to know. Senior Master Wegmann is an excellent technician and an exceptional instructor. When the COVID pandemic began, I had concerns about the future of the school. But the entire Vision organization was quick to implement online classes and strict safety protocols in each of its academies in the Triangle. Your mileage may vary with online classes and events, where personal circumstances might affect your experience (internet service provider, open floor space for training), but it's certainly worth a try!

Fantastic experience: We have thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Vision. We especially appreciate their communication and the precautions they have taken during the pandemic.

Fantastic experience: What an absolute experience with Vision Martial Arts. Sr. Master Wegmann is an inspiration and positive leading female role model for my girls! The programs are phenomenal from forms classes to weapons, sparring, fitness, and leadership. Here they also learn and develop the characteristics of leadership such as respect, honesty, communication, discipline, and belief. Not only that, but I also have been able to join Vision and we have experienced this growth together as a family which is what I cherish the most. Vision Martial Arts is a fantastic academy and I highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: I have been a part of Vision family since 2015. For a parents bringing their child, I would say Vision instills confidence, disciple and self-esteem. For the parents themselves, I would say Vision gives you that renew confidence in your abilities, an opportunity to train as a family and a really cool skill set to show off for your kids. I tell adults all the time, if I can do Taekwondo, anyone can. This program has given me the confidence to try new things, for example I started back running after joining Vision. In addition to Taekwondo, I also run 5K, 10K and half marathons. I have also been able to watch my daughter grow in her training, build her confidence and it has been such a joy now watching her help other students with their training.

Negative experience: Stealing money from parents and refusing to refund stolen, unauthorized charges. STILL reporting false information below and refusing to refund unauthorized charges. Absolutely disgusting.

Fantastic experience: I am a 2nd degree black belt and have traind here for all of my 5 years. I LOVE THIS PLACE. the instructor and assistance was super kind. I have made behaver mistakes but i still love this place.

Fantastic experience: Epic!!!! Trained here so long and is better than any other taekwondo school for miles around.

Fantastic experience: One of the first places I trained in the martial arts was here. I know some people may have a negative view of the school, but this is one of the better places in the area to train martial arts.

Negative experience: RUN AWAY!!! My family attended Allen's in Cary and also Vision Martial Arts in Fuquay, for about 10 years combined. What started as a good experience deteriorated over the years because the owner became less involved with teaching martial arts, and appeared to be focused primarily on increasing his revenues. After a scandal involving the rape of some minor female students at Vision in Fuquay (the instructor was convicted and is now a registered sex offender!), we continued to have faith in the embattled owner. He led us to believe that he was involved with the investigation of the offending instructor, who was also his best friend at the time. We now believe that the owner of this school and the local Vision Martial Arts schools is the "Joe Paterno" of martial arts in North Carolina! We warned him that the instructor was getting too close to the minor students, but he continued to employ him until someone else reported the rapes to the police. We immediately cancelled our contract in disgust last year after 10 years of being duped. We have 3 daughters and would not dare take them to a school whose owner turns a blind eye to (or fails to recognize) inappropriate behavior involving his instructors and his students. He continued to pursue monthly payments from us, and turned our account over to a collection agency, even though we gave him written notice of the cancellation due to moral reasons and concern for the welfare of our daughters. We now attend White Tiger TKD in Cary, and although we pay more per month than we did at Allen's Taekwondo, the training at White Tiger is FAR SUPERIOR to what this place offers. The White Tiger instructors are actual master level instructors from Korea, not like the young unpaid students who often teach classes at Allen's and at the Vision schools. I concur with Posh's "little gym" analogy as well as the comments regarding financial gain. I am not being compensated or encouraged by White Tiger in any manner for this review - they are not even aware that I finally became annoyed enough to write it. I kept getting mail from the collection agency and from the national organization affiliated with this school. Got a membership renewal letter in the mail today, and that was the last straw. Dont waste your time "training" or even visiting here - there are plenty of serious local schools from which to choose.
