The Ttam exercise class is a great way to get regular exercise that’s laid-back yet still challenging. In each class, Master C gives a new workout so it never gets boring and I’ve adapted some routines to develop home workouts that focus on areas that are more important to me. She gives high-intensity and low-intensity options so you can adapt the routine based on your own fitness level and goals. The class length is perfect so it never feels like a huge commitment but still provides cardiac exercise. The classes have a fun atmosphere and Master C offers tips throughout the class on how to improve your form to get the most out of each exercise. The introductory class is free so I definitely recommend giving it a try!

Both of my children took classes with Master C through Legacy and they loved every class. She is patient and energetic making every class so fun and engaging. It was the perfect introduction to TKD for my kids. We are sad we are moving and have to stop her classes. We whole heartedly recommend this positive TaeKwonDo program!

Master Curiel was born to be a TKD instructor. Our elementary aged son has been with her since he was in kindergarten. She is fun, warm, and engaging, while still holding the kids to high standards. Because her class sizes are small, she understands each childs unique needs, and is a true partner in helping them build character while they advance in TKD. I highly recommend her.

Master Curiel was AMAZING! Her energy and enthusiasm was infectious- my kiddo has never enjoyed a class so much. The parents were often in hysterics watching her interact with the students. My daughter has a physical disability and Master C was so gracious and accommodating when I first notified her about it. She made sure my daughter could participate fully but never made a fuss about the disability- just rolled with it. If I could give Master C more stars I would!

Excellent instructor, great with the kids. Patient instructor and fun class.

Online TKD & workout classes during this past year have been so important to retaining a sense of normalcy. Master Curiel engages the class with varied workouts, making each class a fun challenge. She is very well aware of her students workout needs & limitations.

Master Curiel is amazing. She taught my 3 children for 8 years (2 of whom made it to black belt with her help and support), and is my sons favorite all-time instructor. Ive been taking Master Curiels adult martial arts fitness class (TTAM) for 5 years and she makes working out fun, fresh and of course challenging. The best part is the class is for all levels - each activity has a set of versions you can do ranging from easy to insane, so you set your own pace. She keeps an eye on everyone to make sure youre doing the exercises in a way that wont hurt your body. And shell give you a gentle nudge if youre not doing your personal best, just like she does with the kids! These classes are gold.

Two things Master Curiel was born to do, Taekwondo & teaching. Such a positive, family environment, she treats everyone equally, interjecting laughter, positivity throughout her classes. There’s no better Taekwondo teacher but the kids don’t realize at the same time she’s teaching character, responsibility and life skills beyond the classroom.

It’s pretty cool to see my son as he progresses through the class. I enjoy helping him practice, but it was awesome to see him take the initiative and practice the forms at home on his own. At first he was pretty shy and unsure of himself. Over time, I believe that the class has really helped him with his confidence and speaking respectfully in front of others. The group my son is in works well together and the different classes get along with each other. All the kids in the class respond well to the instructor.

Master Curiel has a fantastic rapport with children of all ages. Her sense of humor and play combined with high expectations ensure children learn both basics and more advanced skills in a fun and challenging manner. Our children have shown improvement with athletic skills, flexibility, and behavior at home thanks to Master Curiel. We are so grateful to have found her!

Legacy Tae Kwon Do in the Saratoga Shopping Center in Springfield is one of a kind! Master Curiel’s passion for teaching is so evident in every lesson. She truly wants her students to learn both the physical and mental aspects of martial arts. Her classes are highly engaging, challenging, and most importantly fun for kids of all ages! She teaches technique along with the essential character traits of self-discipline, respect, and honor. I have two children and both have benefited from her classes. My 7 year old has been taking her classes for over 3 years and my 5 year old over a year now. They both love TKD and Master C!
