We have been taking my 4 year old here for about 6 months(he started when he was 3.5) and he loves it. The instructors are kind and patient, but command the respect that a Black Belt deserves. My son calls them«sir» and listens to everything they tell him to do. I can’t get him to listen to anything I say at home! He is learning discipline, self defense, stranger-danger, and several other valuable lessons in life. I can’t wait for my 1.5 year old to be old enough so we can enroll him too! I happily drive by several other closer options to get to ATA since this place is worth it for my son. Highly recommended!
