STUDENT REVIEWS

"We absolutely love Master Black’s ATA! I’ve been bringing my kids for years and liked it so much, I started training, too! Master Black and the instructors teach effective skills and techniques, with decades of experience behind them. They meet students where they are at to teach the skills required for each belt rank. They are also a competitive gym with group demo teams and frequent tournaments, allowing kids tons of opportunities to earn medals and titles. I absolutely recommend this gym for anyone, kids and adults, who want to become a taekwondo martial artist"

"This is a great school! Chief Master Black, the owner of the school, is a great lady, super knowledgeable! All the instructors are very professional and explain all the forms very well! From little kids to older adults, the students are like a family! Very supportive to each other!!! I love my school 🤗"

"I am an intern at ATA Martial Arts and I am very proud of the training I am receiving here. The instructors, professors, and masters are absolutely fantastic. Thank you to everyone at ATA Martial arts who made me who I am today. "

"Taekwondo here has been life-changing for our daughter. She’s grown in confidence, learned respect and honor, and gained the ability to defend herself after a tough incident at school. I never imagined she’d love it this much or excel the way she has—we couldn’t be prouder! Master Black’s dedication and passion for her students is unmatched, and we’re so grateful for the impact she’s had on her life."

"Absolutely love this school! Master Black is an amazing instructor and leader. She has a great team of instructors. This school teaches valuable life skills like, discipline, honesty, self esteem, integrity, etc. My son gained so much confidence since joining. We will be life long ATA family!"

"We started looking for a school when my son was four and wanted to be a ninja. In all honesty we decided to try here because of the reviews. To say it was a good decision is an understatement…4 years later we are still here and loving it. Master Black brings amazing energy and passion for her students to succeed, her instructors are amazing and bring the same energy too. We love it here and would not go anywhere else."

"Absolutely amazing place! Wonderful with kids. Master Black and the other instructors are always kind and welcoming. It feels like you're with family as soon as you walk in the door. I enrolled my 5yr old son in their Tigers class and I could feel the difference in him after the very first class. He's typically shy and reluctant to join in groups with other kids but not here! Great emphasis on manners, respect, and discipline. I now plan on joining myself. They have classes for all ages and abilities at various times throughout the day. I highly recommend to anyone."

"Such an amazing school! I have been a student of Master Blacks ATA school since the end of 2021. I could not think of a better martial arts environment."

"Can't say enough good things about this school, Master Black and her instructors. My son is so confident and motivated to be a better person and athlete. So worth the drive to be part of this school. It takes a village and I'm glad their part of ours. If you want your family to thrive come down and check it out."

"My son and I just joined a month ago and it has really been awesome. The instructors are great and also very patient . I am thankful for Master Black for her time and dedication to her students. I strongly recommend this ATA Martial Arts of Lakewood."
