Wexford ATA is definitely my favorite place to go to every week! The environment is amazing and has helped my confidence and not caring what anybody thinks! The instructors there are amazing! They push you to be better in a VERY positive way! I have been going to Wexford ATA for a little over 2 years and I could definitely say that Taekwando is my favorite sport and Wexford ATA is the place to be!!!
Awesome place with great owners and instructors!
Kudos to Ms. Danley and Mr. Langer for running this enriching taekwondo school, building life skills and self-confidence in the kids -and adults- that attend. And they do it in such a heartwarming and welcoming environment. My son has been attending for almost 10 years there and he looks forward to every class and tournament.
Owners Mr. Langer and Ms. Danley are awesome, they work with the students (in groups and individually) to make sure the students become more independent and confident in their abilities. The other instructors have been awesome too. Thank you for helping our daughter overcome her struggles and helping her to move ahead.
My son started here from more last September and his interest to learn and going to center was increased over time due to the teaching method what he was getting. Good faculty and good place.
Our son has been coming here for about 1.5 years in the Tiger program. He’s learned so much and has come so far! I specially love that he learns self defense skills as well as TKD.
My oldest son has been a member for about a year now and my other son just started a month ago. They both love the school and the instructors. Everyone is very supportive and positive. The boys leave every class feeling confident and accomplished. The owners and the instructors are genuinely dedicated to the school and the students, and I am very happy that my boys get to be part of such an uplifting atmosphere.
Highly recommend Wexford ATA! When we started here I never imagined my kids learning so many skills physically, skills for life and friendships. When they convinced me to join I had no idea what I could accomplish thankfully the instructors give just as much to us adults as they do their tigers! Earning my Black belt has been an honor, every adult should have a chance to experience the pride in this challenging accomplishment in such a supportive environment.
my son is seven years old and has with Colton and his great staff. They take to time to make sure each kid is comfortable, and they present the lessons in way that the kids understand. My son has going for five months now, and I have seen an improvement in his confidence, his respect for friends and family as well as his schoolwork and grades. I would highly recommend this dojo.
We are having the best experience at Wexford ATA! Our 5 year old loves going to class. All of the instructors are great with the kids. Ms. Alyssa is amazing and continually keeps a positive encouraging atmosphere. Her energy is unmatched and genuine. The classes efficiently offer so much in each session teaching coordination and focus as well as a real workout. My son has so much fun and loves earning rewards and new belts. The flexible schedule and class times are wonderful too. Highly recommend!!
ATA Martial Arts Wexford Dojo: A Parent's Perspective Joining the ATA Martial Arts Wexford dojo in April 2022 was a leap of faith for our family, especially since we had no prior experience in Taekwondo or any martial arts classes. Our main aim was to get our children involved in a physical activity, but more importantly, to help build their confidence. This was especially crucial for my older son, who has always been on the shy side. From the start, the instructors at ATA Wexford impressed us with their caring approach and deep knowledge of martial arts. They're not just teaching kicks and punches; they're imparting life lessons that are shaping our children into better individuals every single day. It's been heartwarming to see both my kids earn the "Life Skills Champion" award, a testament to how the dojo's emphasis on character development is paying off. The values taught at ATA aren't confined to the dojo; they're carried into every aspect of our children's lives, including home and school. It was a proud moment for us when my older son received the "Gentleman Award" and my younger one was honored with the "Self-Discipline Award" at their school. These accolades reflect the positive impact of their Taekwondo training on their behavior and attitudes. A memorable incident that truly highlighted the values ATA instills happened one morning when we were running late for school. After hurriedly dropping off Vincent and Ethan, I lingered for a moment and witnessed something that deeply moved me. Vincent, in his rush, paused to hold the door open for a little girl trailing behind them, unaware that I was watching. This simple act of kindness was a powerful reminder of the lessons of respect and courtesy being instilled in him. Our experience with ATA Martial Arts Wexford dojo has been incredibly positive. It's not just about martial arts; it's about building a strong foundation of character and values in our children. We're grateful for the life skills they're learning, and we can't thank ATA enough for the positive influence it has had on our family.
My daughter has been with Wexford ATA over 2.5 years. She absolutely loves it! I’ve witnessed her growth along with many other kids and adults as well, both physically and mentally. All the instructors are wonderful, super patient yet strict to students with a high standard: never give up, confidence, respect, discipline etc. Highly recommended!
Great place for taekwondo. Inviting atmosphere and judge free zone. So glad I found it and decided to stick with it.
My kids have been going to ATA Wexford for 4 years and have learned so much! Not only Tae Kwon Do, but confidence, respect, honesty, perseverance and determination. I am so thankful for the staff at ATA.
Owners Mr. Langer and Ms. Danley are truly professional and caring instructors to their students. My son looks forward to attending every class and I have been truly pleased with our experience at ATA Martial Arts in Wexford. Such a great experience!
I can see my kids feeling more confident and disciplined after joining ATA wexford location. The lessons are comprehensive and the staff are very experienced and very professional! They are ready to help us and are very patient to answer all our questions.
Great team of trainers focused on helping kids and adults be their best selves ... Pretty fantastic
After a 8 year hiatus of not taking Martial Arts and missing doing so I decided to look for a dojo and destiny allowed me to find this dojo. This is honestly the best dojo I have been to because it's great, affordable, the staff is friendly, it's a great workout, and I have really come far in my training. Don't even think about finding another dojo this one is clearly the best.
Outstanding focus on character and discipline while loving and encouraging. The family that owns it is wonderful. We’re so happy to have found them for our boys! Highly recommend.
My daughter started at Wexford ATA when she was 5 years old and achieved black belt status last year! This is the best Tae Kwon Do instruction in the area - the family who runs the studio is thoughtful and caring and the whole program is outstanding. A lot of thought goes into helping the children gain strength, confidence, self-control, persistence, and more. Highly recommend!!
If you're looking to get your child involved in some sort of physical activity or sport I'd love to recommend my dear friends... Great friends and awesome instructors. They’re caring and compassionate and truly go above and beyond to help every student reach their individual goals. Taekwondo has definitely been the best choice for our son over the years. His developmental delays, and sensory and attention issues kept him from thriving in organized sports. We later discovered that martial arts is one of the highest recommended activities for children with sensory needs. It checks off so many of the boxes that these kiddos need (resistive muscle activity, coordinated movement, body position, balance, etc...) Not only has he achieved 2nd Degree Black Belt Rank under their training and instruction, but he is gaining so much more. He is learning the disciplines of hard work and perseverance, and also the value of honor, courtesy, and respect for those around him and also for himself. I would recommend Martial Arts for anyone, but especially for any child with sensory or motor deficits, this is a great way to fill some of those gaps and also to help build confidence and give them a sense of accomplishment and achievement.
There should be more stars available. Just the right amount of knowledge, discipline, competition and fun for children of all ages. The dojo has a Zen like atmosphere. I feel better just by watching the classes.
Age is not a factor here! I joined at 48 and I love it! Not only is this the best work out I have ever had, I am learning awesome skills both physically and mentally! The instructor's energy is contagious and you become excited to push yourself just a little further than before. I am not a coordinated person, but I am improving all the time. I have been with the ATA Wexford Family for 1.5 years. With continued focus and hard work, I will reach my black belt goal in 2018! If I can do it, ANYONE can!
My son has been attending Wexford ATA for years. Owners Matt and Kim Opsitos are two amazing people that work extremely hard to teach both children and adults. These two have more patience and skill than Mr. Miyagi. Thank you for all that you do. Keep up the good work ATA.
Highly recommend this school. Instruction is tailored to challenge individuasl and develop confidence. My son has always been fairly disciplined, but he was never outgoing, and was slow to warm up with new people or new situations. Our first month of ATA classes was spent starting out in the back corner of the room and gradually joining the main class (Tiny Tigers, 4-6 year olds). Now, he is fully engaged in the classes, he is among the smaller ones, and I don't ever see him being loud and boisterous, but approaching the class and his classmates engaged and confident is a wonderful thing. We've also observed that the kids are individually evaluated, each of them challenged to their limits and strengths. In addition to the martial arts what he has learned is discipline, concentration, and the curtesies. We've (the parents) quickly picked up on some of the teacher's classroom management techniques in disciplining our children, in particular keeping them engaged and bringing their focus back on task (we of course only have to handle one at a time!). While physical confidence is one of the selling points of martial arts for children, we find that the taekwondo provides a lot of social confidence as well. When my son gets introduced to a new social situation, he has been learning to use the courtesies of the TKD dojang as a way of guiding him through his interactions with others. It has helped in getting adjusted to a new school (which was much smoother than we expected, and we credit ATA for teaching him to enter a new environment!), and we clearly noticed it when he went to a tournament, and he was able to navigate a good portion of it with me only watching on. We have enjoyed watching our son grow in competence and confidence while in the ATA at Wexford, and expect to continue for the indefinite future.
Our family loves Wexford ATA! The instructors are incredible: patient, knowledgeable, passionate, and energetic. The facilities and equipment are top-notch. Wexford ATA Martial Arts is a great place for kids and adults--beginner to advanced--to train!!
The staff is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The facility is top of the line and the schedule if very flexible for those that also work during the day. Our son has enjoyed the experience tremendously and I would highly recommend this ATA site for anyone that is looking to have their children introduced to martial arts.
My Daughter has been attending for more than 2 years. It's been very good experience for her . Only thing I would ask the management to consider the timing. for a 4 PM class its very difficult to get the kid to the class as the school ends by 3.30.
