At ATA Black Belt Academies, we understand the importance of teaching children the physical and mental benefits of Tae Kwon Do. Our certified instructors are dedicated to the philosophy that "Every kid is a winner" and "Every kid is special." Our staff is regularly trained in the latest motivation and teaching systems, and parents can expect to see an improvement in their children's self confidence and self esteem. Classes are designed to be fun and engaging, while still teaching respect, courtesy, discipline, and improving attention span. We also strive to introduce students to an ongoing lifetime sport and to teach them to have "Black Belt Excellence" in all areas of their life. With over 1500 branches and 300,000 students, the American Tae Kwon Do Association is a nationally recognized organization that provides a safe, positive learning environment for people of all ages.
