ATA Martial Arts' teachers took years to earn their black belts in tae kwon do. Since 1995, they've spent their time attaining a similar level of mastery over teaching. Now, as the leaders of their combined Black Belt Academy and Karate for Kids school, they help students on their own martial-arts journey at every stage of life.

They hone the ability to punch, kick, or throw opponents on their 1,500 square foot safety floor. And, they use the rest of the gym for less combative workouts, or even character-building lessons designed to help children learn integrity, honesty, perseverance, and confidence.
