"Dear John, Doug and I cannot thank you enough for your Tai Chi lesson. We feel much better for doing the exercise and look forward to the class each week."

Review by Very Best Wishes Rita and Doug (Thursdays 1pm Age UK RBH)

“Hi Sensei John. We just like to say how we really enjoyed your tai chi sessions either in the park when we first started (August 2020) or even via zoom sessions. We feel that the sessions keep us fit physically and well balanced mentally too, especially during this trying time. We always look forward on Friday mornings to attend your classes."

Review by Linda Ting and Adrian Ling (Tai Chi Students)

"My daughter attends Poon Dojo and it’s the after school activity she enjoys the most. She’s learning how to focus while learning a new skill and becoming more flexible.

The set up is extremely professional. They are well organised and manage everything brilliantly. The best part is that they continue classes during the school holidays so the children can continue learning. I would recommend Poon Dojo to all parents!" Angela Shaw.

Review by Angela Shaw (Parent at Poon Dojo)

Dear Poon Dojo,

 

Thank you for your commitment and dedication to the students in your Karate Dojo and across the school in general.

The discipline, resilience and focus that this service brings to our children truly underpins and supports everything that we teach in the classroom and most importantly your practice consolidates the living of our school ethos.    

 

You are also such a great model of  professionalism, organisation, effectiveness and efficiency! We are inspired by your practice!

 

The awards which you have not yet handed out will be handed out on your behalf by Mr Hodges at the various ceremonies.

 

We are eternally grateful for all you do for the school.

Review by Angela Moore (Head Teacher at St. Anthony's Catholic School, Forest Gate)

This is a very special Dojo, led by experienced, skilled, wise, and compassionate founders, Ko and John Poon. My daughter is fortunate to be learning martial arts here using a holistic approach, that positively impacts her well-being, encourages resilience and connection with herself and others, in a meaningful and integrative way. My daughter has social anxiety and was Poon Dojo was recommended by her educational psychologist. I have seen such a boost in her emotional health and she is thriving physically and mentally. I would highly recommend Poon Dojo. (Jasmine - Parent at Poon Dojo)
