I cannot be more grateful for this program, but even more so for the kindness, patience, and love that Mr. Rhoda and Mr. Devins bestow upon those children. This is admirable! Thank you very much for all of your efforts.

Master Lee and his team at karate ATLANTA Sandy Springs have been instrumental in our sons development! On every level imaginable, we recommend and support the studio! If you’re looking for people who love and care about your children, you have found the right place! Thank you !

Ow, my legs! This place is everything you could hope and more. Every member of the staff is incredibly positive and knowledgeable. My daughter loves going and after only 2 months of classes I can already see a difference in her focus, control, and ability to take direction. In addition to the physical skills they practice there are overarching lessons on constructive but general themes like discipline, perseverance, and respect. It has also been a great experience as an adult with no prior experience with martial arts. Just leave your pride at the door; you WILL be outnumbered and find yourself getting advice from 10-year-olds. The kids are alright and they seem to know what they're talking about. Taking parallel classes here has also been a great bonding experience for father and daughter. The only thing missing at this location is a family class where we can work together. However, even without that the staff were open to facilitate us working together when possible. I cannot recommend KA enough - scoop up a trial deal and give them a shot!
