"Elevation Martial Arts is renowned for its meticulous attention to detail, catering to the unique needs and techniques of each student in Songahm Taekwondo. Mr. Dufrene, along with his Legacy Black Belts, plays a pivotal role in guiding students toward their goals. They meticulously plan and maintain consistency in their classes and lessons, ensuring a high-quality learning experience. Mr. Dufrene’s unwavering dedication and commitment to his students are evident in his meticulous attention to detail and the care he puts into each individual. He prioritizes building students’ confidence, discipline, and overall well-being, taking into account the needs of both students and their parents. Elevation continues to set new goals for themselves and students. I highly recommend enrolling in their martial arts program today."

"Great experience! Open space with clean mats and gear. Instructors are super knowledgeable, and helpful for adults and kids. I went with my family with the oldest being 40+ and youngest under 10. We all had a great time and would recommend going if you want to start a martial art but aren't sure where."

"We LOVE this school! My kids (9 & 6) have learned so much about not only taekwondo but discipline, self confidence, and community. Mr. Dufresne and Mrs. Dubois are incredible instructors and they make everyone feel welcome while instilling the skill of the art."

"Mr. Dufrane and Mrs. Dubois have proven to be exceptional instructors for my children. Mrs. Dubois's encouragement, energy, and patience in the Tiny Tigers class have significantly enhanced my child's development and engagement. Mr. Dufrane, as the owner of Elevation Martial Arts, has provided invaluable support to my older children. His dedication and compassion for all students consistently exceed my expectations, demonstrating a strong commitment to their well-being and serving as an excellent mentor for my boys. I would definitely recommend Elevation Martial Arts to other parents."

"I’ve wanted to do tae kwon do all my life so when I retired I decided to give it a try. After 8 months in the school I was pretty disappointed and I was ready to give up. Then something amazing happened, Mr Billy Dufrene bought the school and transformed Elevation Martial Arts. Now I know there are many more people out there with much more experience than I have but thanks to Mr Dufrene I am all in. The other students that help instruct are very knowledgeable and are willing to do whatever it takes to help you achieve your goals. Mr Dufrene is one of the most honest men I have ever met. He has told me he plans on helping me get a state title and I plan on doing my part to make that goal a reality. Thank you Mr Dufrene because of you my dreams of someday becoming a BLACK BELT are still alive."
