I've been here for a few years and they have always been great. They've accommodated my disabilities as much as physically possible, and helped me to get further then I could go alone. The lessons are useful and explained clearly, and I have truly learned a lot at the pace I need to learn it. It's worth it for me, I hope others enjoy it too.

Our daughter Vy'nae has been attending Tactical Martial Arts for 4 years now and it has been one of the best experience she has had. She has grown not only in confidence and skills but in her mannerism in becoming a teenager lady. I recommend for any parent to have their child attend the staff are all awesome.

We recently moved here from South Florida where my daughter was a black belt at a small, family operated gym. My wife found GTMA and they helped make my daughter feel comfortable while also keeping her training up. Everyone is so nice and the facilities are huge! Couldn’t be happier with the find!

For millennial parents raisin gen z and alpha, sign your kids up!!! We are constantly talking to our kids about engaging, talking with others, supporting each others and stand up for themselves and others. This group of instructions supports that. From Mz Fulton to Mr smothers, Tod to Ms Smothers, thee team is relatable. They teach respect and connections. They involve the real world and individualization. It is a team effort and a group that cares if you succeed, when you put the effort in to reach the goals. GTMA!

First came to TMA when my son was 4. He did a couple of the trial classes and he just wasn’t quite into it. Maturity level, attention span, not knowing his left from right, etc.. He is now 5 1/2 and has now asked to go back and has shown a lot of interest in martial arts and the first day of class was very impressive! We will be converting to a full membership. As a parent, the customer service is what really sold me. All while my son was NOT enrolled, staff members called me every couple of months just to check in and see if we were ready to come back yet. THAT is great marketing tactics and customer retention done right. I wish so many other businesses would implement tactics like this. We weren’t quite ready at the time, but I promised as soon as he had shown interest again that we would be back. Well as promised, we’re back! I love that they offer trial classes at a reasonable price because a lot of time we as parents have to try so many things just to find our kids interests and it can be expensive.

On the recommendation of a neighbor I brought my slightly troubled young person to look learn and listen. There are truly too many great things to list about the friendly and professional learning center that is TMA. What is most impressive is the 180 my child has done in school and at home in regards to behavior, self discipline and respect. This change can be directly linked back to our start with their Taekwondo classes. We are honored to be a part of the Tactical Martial Arts family.

I can’t say enough about how amazing this team is. As former military I am extremely picky as to who would instruct my son on numerous styles of self defense and competition. Upon arrival I was greeted countless time and offered to observe a class going on. The patience and positive re-enforcement shown to the students and par none. Not to mention extensive parent involvement. After watching I was happy but after talking to a manager named patience “ she knows her stuff as far a martial arts awards all over her uniform” I was beyond happy and she broke down the prices and my son and her had a great connection. Ever since that day I would not trust my son to any other martial arts academy. A plus+++ hands down!

My sister and I have both been going to this school for about 3 years, and have both earned our black belts and continue to work on our next level. Let me say that me and my sister are both ADHD and taking classes here have helpes us both with this condition. With having attention issues it can be hard for us to focus at times, but we are able to stay focused most nights and work through are forms, which currently has 82 moves. Last year, my sister and I did so well being at this school, that we both finished in the top 10 in districts, which is out of 8 states I think.

My son has come to understand that there are consequences for his actions. When he was not following instructions at school and at home he soon learned that he will pay a price at karate. His belt was taken away twice and he had to earn it back by doing extra work at practice. Because of this, he has had to watch his classmates advance to higher belts at the normal rate. Whereas, his advancement has been slowed (learning and growing from experience). Overall I can see him maturing and becoming cognizant of his decisions. He still has some ways to go. But with continued participation and guided instructions, he should develop into a respected and respectful youngster on the verge of adolescence. I would like to see the instructors be firmer with the younger students, including my son. Overall, discipline is the key to success.

I will start by saying this review is only about the Tae Kwon Do program. The school does have an awesome facility. The people are nice. I know they offer other service, and for parents that just want a place for there kids to be involved in something. This can be a good place. My 2 stars is because I trained many years in Tae Kwon do, and now my kids wanted to join. This school significantly lacks from what I saw in experienced instructing. We went for over a month of classes. Every class was same thing for ALL levels of belt rank. Instructors are nice, but all training is watch as I do and do it. Maybe 2x did I ever see someone stop and correct or instruct on proper technique. No training on basics. Kicks, punch, stance. Nothing. Hit the bag is all that was thought. Not even how to do a proper kick. How do you do a round house kick. It is just do a round house kick. After only a few weeks my kids were already asked to test for next belt. At the belt test every belt level did the same things? How do you specify the difference in ranks if white belts do the same thing as a green belt to test? And I may be picky, but I have never seen someone do a single wrap belt tie and cut the belt to fit?? YES there is a art and meaning to the way you tie your belt in martial arts. Also what traditional martial arts school has a camo belt? This was an expensive lesson learned.

Let me start with the positives - the staff is kind to the children. There are workable time slots for most class levels. However, our experience there has been that the primary interest is in raking in dollars vs actually seeing children learn. We enrolled our three children at the steep price tag of $200/month due to small class size and what seemed like attentive teachers. As soon as we had been going a couple of months, the classes grew to unmanageable sizes, with kids running around and the teachers unable to focus the group, engage the students or effectively teach new material. Earning a new belt is simply a matter of forking over $50/each kid every 8 weeks, on top of the already steep monthly cost. Did I mention the 60-day cancellation policy? Still in progress fighting this (I did sign the paperwork, although who could know the switch and bait they would pull!) $400 they want for zero instruction taught the last 7 weeks we took class. Boo! I suggest finding someplace cleaner, more organized and less interested in bilking hard working parents for every penny they can while kids learn what they could have picked up from Kung Fu Panda.

When you try to leave they require a 30 day notice, and if that 30th day lands on the next month they charge you for that too. Additionally, I had to have a block placed by my credit card company because I continued to get charged an additional month despite having confirmation email that the charges would stop. I am not the only person who had this experience.

So there we were, Jun 10th our first visit to this establishment. We walked in the TK1 class had already started. My daughter (13 yrs) and I took a sit close to the front counter and just observed the class. TK1 now complete they soon move into TK2. NOW mind you no one has spoken to us or asked us any questions. Yeah there was only one instructor, but the senior class started, they could've stretched and warmed up on their own while you conversed with some potential students with pasted experience.

My son attended the after school program at this facility for the past 2 years. He has been on medication for Epilepsy and ADHD for some time. Side affects are mood swings which they were aware of and only had to experience this 3-4 times since he's been attending (only 2 this school year). Now let me add he's only 9, and mostly stays to himself. So a situation occurred Monday and for whatever reason he had another meltdown. Now before this occurred the staff (Patience and other instructors) would tell me on a consistent basis how much progress he's made and how well he's been doing since the beginning of this school year. Now back to the meltdown that occurred Monday....so I was told that he was crying, and kicking lockers and was out of control and they were unable to calm him down. So of course I said..."I'm on my way now, but I work an hour away and it will take awhile to get there especially in rush hour traffic." Everyone in Atlanta knows this very well. So of course, I left immediately but traffic was horrible as always....but what can I do but drive as fast as I can (without killing myself and others) to get to my child as quickly as possible. On the way I receive ANOTHER call asking were I was with an attitude as if any of this was within my means, (and like I knew that today would be a day where something like this happened and I have to leave work earlier than normal). I get there and basically I'm told he can't continue in the program because of today, and it seems like he's gotten worse (LIES)!!! I guess Patience didn't relay that to the owner or she just didn't care. Honestly it sounds like they just didn't want to accommodate a child with special needs. Just a few weeks ago I was told how much better he's gotten and just how well he's been doing overall this school year. See the owner is never there, and just so happen to be there on this day. The second time this school year he has a meltdown and he's out??? Would they so easily kick out a white kid? Probably NOT...but Luckily I had started to search for other alternatives and this turned out to be a blessing because all they want is money. They forced me to get this insurance and everything when they new all alone they would kick him out. The first day back from winter break and he can't come back??? No notice or anything...but thank GOD for divine intervention and putting things together for me before this went down. I was borderline done with this place and had already found a new location for him to start in a couple of weeks. They call you and want you to pick up your child for the smallest reasons and still want you to pay full price. Oh yeah....and even though he couldn't come back after Monday, they charged me $55 for one day. So to my parents that have a special needs child, this is NOT the place for your child. It's really about the money for them and NOT about helping your child overcome anything.
