AMA Taekwondo in Allen has been an amazing experience for our family. Our 9-year-old has been attending and absolutely loves it. The classes are well structured, engaging, and build both confidence and discipline in a positive way. Instructor Christine is truly outstanding—patient, encouraging, and fantastic with kids.
We are so glad that AMA Taekwondo opened a center in Allen! Our two older kids used to attend the center in Richardson / North Dallas and LOVED it. Unfortunately we had to switch to a different academy when we moved to North Plano, but missed Master ASL and his team a lot.
Love Ama. Our kids used to go here when they had the Richardson location only. Over time, when a business expands, quality usually goes down but AMA has expanded and maintained a top tier quality of business and customer service. Pricing is appropriate for the area and Cristine is an amazing instructor.
New to taekwondo? Start at AMA TAEKWONDO
AMA TAEKWONDO comes up as a beginner-friendly school, going by their listing and students’ reviews. If you've never trained or set foot in a dojang, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and instructors scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable schools build fundamentals (stances, blocks, kicks, and basic forms) for weeks, sparring eases in gradually and with gear on, and instructors keep it controlled and safe. Third, all ages and all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most schools are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first taekwondo class at AMA TAEKWONDO
Nervous about walking into a taekwondo school for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, and kicks with a partner or on pads — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: loose athletic wear you can move in (or a dobok if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the floor. What to bring: water and a positive attitude — many schools lend a loaner dobok for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll get your own dobok and belt, and sparring gear (mouthguard, headgear, and guards) once you begin sparring. Sparring eases in gradually, once your fundamentals and forms are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the instructor. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
