“Minnesota Star is amazing! Our son started less then a year ago and we see such a difference. He is more Active, impoved attitude and is a better student at school. Master Franklin along with his Instructors do such an awesome job!”

“Almost 15 years ago, a pudgy kid walked through the doors of the Coon Rapids World Taekwondo Academy and his life was changed forever. That instructor changed my life and brought me down a path of success and accomplishment all the while being selfless and caring the whole way. He was the best instructor a kid can ask for and still one of the best instructors I've had the pleasure to work under. Without Master James Franklin I know that my life wouldn't be the same and I wouldn't be nearly the person I am today without him, Taekwondo, and Everyone at the World Taekwondo Academy in Coon Rapids”

“We couldn't have asked for a better place for my kids to be. My kids on a daily basis say that Taekwondo was their favorite part of the day. I appreciate the second family vibe and appreciate all MSMA does to make us feel welcomed.”

“BEST thing my child has ever been involved with and we plan to make this experience long term. He's receiving a form of education he doesn't get in the classroom and loves every minute of it. Can't possibly say enough good things about this program. Thanks to Master Franklin, Miss Sheila, Miss Trish and the rest of the staff”

“After 11 years of growth and development, our 14 year old daughter still finds ways to increase her self-discipline, courtesy, and respect for others and self. Thank you Master Franklin for all that you and your leaders bring into the lives of your martial artists, their families, and our community!!”
