Martial Arts Instructors
All instructors with the ATA are highly trained and reliable and use a curriculum called Songahm Taekwondo. We train students not only physically but mentally as well. Students learn life skills which include honesty, discipline, respect, courtesy, self-esteem, and communication.
In addition to our primary black belt instructors, we also have junior instructors working their way toward full instructor qualifications. They assist the primary instructors as needed and lead many of the the Tigers classes. This provides a mix of training and guidance from seasoned black belt instructors and the support and encouragement from junior instructors. This is encouraging for younger students to see a junior instructor, generally 5-10 years older than them, in a leadership position. Training goals go far beyond the color of your belt!
