My child is relating to general daily instruction in a whole new way at home, his confidence with other children on the playground has improved at school, and he has an increased body awareness and confidence. We just experienced our first belt testing ceremony, and it was so sweetly presented that it made Grandpa cry with happy pride in the audience. Great experience here so far, and we look forward to many more years of learning with Coach Scott.

She struggles with ADHD and Anxiety, but ATA has helped by improving her focus, self control and self confidence. The instructors are all patient and are always willing to take the time to correct students to ensure their movements are being completed safely and properly. For the owner and instructors, it's not about just getting kids in the door like some places strive for, it's about ensuring they're learning proper technique and life skills!

We absolutely love Chardon ATA and look forward to seeing our daughter (and eventually our son,) continue to grow through this program.
