The best instructors around. Mr and Mrs Von Tonder is an amazing team. Each one of their instructors have a different style of training which is very great for the students. I enjoy watching the versatility of teaching. My grandson has improved a great deal since going to ATA. Thank you for everything you have poured into him....Way to go team!!!!

My daughter has flourished under the leadership of Master Von Tinder and Mrs. Van Tonder. I am deeply grateful for the leadership opportunities, the discipline instilled through the curriculum, and the core values that have shaped her growth. The staff is incredibly supportive, encouraging, and dedicated to every child’s success. She eagerly looks forward to attending each week."

This martial arts is a waste of time and money, it can’t be used in the real world I did ata before they switched to always take action who knows if it’s changed. MMA is the way to go, it’s ok to train to get into shape a lil bit I’ve seen a lot of instructors having belly’s but in mma you get shredded

PLEASE READ!!!!! This program did not meet our expectations. With all the martial art programs available, this program definitely needs some improvement and STAFF! They are always running ads and dont have adequate staff to teach the children. Definitely a money pit!!! There are other places that are much cheaper that we attend and provide way better service! They seem nice to get you in but DO NOT TRUST it! Jj On point is telling the TRUTH!
