LONG ISLAND COMBAT HAPKIDO & TAEKWONDO CENTER

I am a black belt in Taekwondo. I have been a dedicated member of another school for many years. After coming across this school and trying it I immediately joined and am incredibly grateful for it's teaching and what this has to offer that many schools won't teach _ REAL SELF DEFENSE!

I am extremely new to martial arts. I have a high level athletic background and can truly appreciate good teaching. I know what it's like to be on the teacher end of the spectrum as well as the student end of the spectrum and at high levels. What Master Bivens does in ...his teaching is fantastic! He works with students individually and as a group - customizing the skills to the student's learning ability and background (i.e. law enforcement, various sport backgrounds, etc). Master Bivens is a rare gem with regard to his people skills, teaching skills and his knowledge of the material he is/has/does present. Miss Terri is incredible. She does "it" all - managing the studio along with occasional teaching and/or participation as a student. The fellow students in both classes are awesome - truly a family of caring people who also help other students in whatever's needed. A great group of students - of all ages with an instructor who is dynamic and has extensive experience and knowledge! Read More

I've been a member of LI Combat Hapkido for almost a year when relocation due to employment circumstances forced me to suspend my membership. While touring other Martial Arts schools in my new locale, I realized that I had been enrolled in of the best Martial Arts schoo...ls in the tri state area. In short, you would be hard pressed to find a more comprehensive Martial Arts education, in a clean spacious environment, and quality one on one teaching with a fair price than LI Combat Hapkido.
