From the reviews
My daughter has been coming here for almost 3 years. In that time, I have seen her confidence, discipline, and mental toughness improve. I think the best thing about this school is how much the teachers care. They don't miss opportunities to help, instruct, train, and mentor.
Great program for kids, and great instructors and staff. My son has been in the program for a while now and he loves it. As someone who had the pleasure of experiencing martial arts in my youth, I think ATA (specifically the instructors at this location) provide the perfect balance of teaching discipline, respect and…
Great instructors who are able to teach to kids of all ages and skill levels. Extremely patient towards kids with high energy. Focused on teaching self-respect, self-discipline and high-character.

New to taekwondo? Start at Sunrise Taekwondo USA
Sunrise Taekwondo USA 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 Sunrise Taekwondo USA
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.
