“Our family came to the ATA with the interest of enrolling our son in taekwondo due to being bullied at school and we wanted him to learn better discipline. In meeting with Master Edwards and Mrs. Edwards, they explained we would get more than that. They would help us teach our son the life skills he needs to not only become a better person but a confident young man that is responsible AND have the skills needed to defend himself. I have watched my son grow as a young man and become proud of his accomplishments in taekwondo. We are all learning things that help us become a better family. I am taking the combat fitness class. I can only say that I love it. Mrs. Edwards and Mr. Edwards (Josh) encourage me to push my limits. I am a recovering from Breast Cancer and I am working on making my body stronger, and after every class, no matter how painful it is, that is exactly how I feel, accomplished and stronger. ATA (the Edwards family) have taken Martial Arts up a notch, making them elite from the rest of the studio’s around here. It’s not just about the hitting and kicking, they teach their students a better way of life and how to become better people. And for that, we thank them.” - Jenny Matthews

“TaeKwonDo has done many things for me in my lifetime. It has helped me learn how to become a successful leader in school and in the community. It has helped me learn to make new friends from all around the world from the ATA. I have learned more about myself during my training and from all of my instructors. My instructors have taught me how ot work as a team with people with different personalities. I have also learned the importance of trusting my instructors and my parents. TaeKwondo has been part of my life for the last 11 years and I see no stop for my martial arts career in the future.” - Nick Louderman
