Ascend Martial Arts - South

My daughter has been attending Ascend for a year and has enjoyed the experience immensely. She consistently looks forward to her classes and has developed significantly as an individual over the past year. Beyond improving her physical strength and self-defense skills, she is taught discipline and respect. This has led to notable improvements in her behavior both at home and at school. The instructors, including Mrs. Cha-Ca, Ms. Cancino, and Mr. McGuffey, demonstrate great dedication to ensuring each student masters the necessary forms. They are always willing to provide additional assistance to my daughter after class when she wants to work on a specific skill. It is incredibly rewarding to see the pride she feels upon achieving rank advancements or being selected to demonstrate a skill in front of the class. I can’t wait to see what she’ll learn next and to see her become a black belt in the future. I would highly recommend Ascend to anyone interested in learning martial arts.

Our daughter has been part of the Ascend family for almost two years and they have made such an impact on her. The coaches have always been encouraging on and off the mat, love the life lessons they teach and helpful during class and tournaments for our daughter. Our daughter had been a victim of bullying and we originally were just going to put her in to help protect herself, never realizing the huge impact it would have. Our daughter now is regaining her self esteem, her grades are much better in school, and went from being a difficult kid at school to being helpful and a go to for things at her school. I cant ever thank the Ascend coaches enough for everything they have done and look forward to many more years with this school.

The best decision of my life and for my family! Amazing staff, great community, exciting events all year round and the best place to train and grow as a martial artist. It’s been 3 years and I have never been so close to my kids because we are all training on the mat! Family time is taekwondo time for us. Ascend martial arts give us the opportunity to grow and progress ourselves. Truly a place to strengthen yourself and your family bond. Get on the mat guys I promise you won’t regret it!

Just visited the new Ascend facility in Reno South. Wow! What a magnificent space undoubtedly, the Cancino family will continue to offer the finest Taekwondo training in Nevada. Such a great family, and they have extended that to the Taekwondo training which is a family experience. Don't miss it.

My Daughter Priscilla has been going to Ascend Martial Arts for 2 year’s now and it’s been a truly amazing experience. Master Cancino and his staff are exceptional, and highly qualified. They truly care about your kids growth. Ever since my daughter started going to Ascend her school grades! Improved, her attitude Improved, and her self confidence. Ascend teaches so many great things not just martial arts. They also focus on building strong character. They teach about life lessons, confidence, discipline, respect, morals, humility, accountability, teamwork and so many more great things it’s such a positive atmosphere. I highly recommend Ascend martial Arts to anyone in the Reno/Sparks area.
