I have interactions with all staff members regularly all of which are always very pleasant, helpful, and caring! They have gone above and beyond teaching my child Tae Kwon Do skills. When picking my child up they ask about school, grades, extra curricular activities, etc. In class Master Bun has worked to improve my child's confidence, holds high expectations for my child, and pushes my child to achieve those by giving constant positive encouragement as needed. Master Ron fixed a band instrument for us which was a life saver that night! Both Master Ron & Master Bun have been wonderful to our family and awesome to work with!

Our son has been a student at ATA Steele Creek for nearly 3 years, and we are loving it! We…read moreimmediately knew we found the right martial arts program, and we're so grateful to Mr. Esposito and the amazing team of instructors who are devoted to instilling discipline, confidence, respect, perseverance and some pretty amazing skills in all their students. And I have to give a special shout out to Miss Michelle, who makes everyone feel like a special part of the ATA family. The instructors maintain high standards of discipline, commitment and effort (while also making it fun!), and it definitely shows in the amazing progress our son has made since joining. We highly recommend ATA Steele Creek!

This is not for 3 and 4 year olds…read more Negatives first: My son went through the evaluation with the owner and was permitted to join the ATA at 3.5 year old. We were flattered. But Tiny Tigers is not for a typical 3 or 4 year old. The rules are too strict. For easily distracted students, expect tears and hurt feelings from harsh discipline methods. The student to teacher ratio is not sufficient for that age group. The 6 pm classes are very full, which is where the student to teacher ratio becomes a problem. The students are not allowed to use the restroom without permission from the teacher, but (with so many kids) the teachers are not always able to see/hear them in time. Potty accidents are frequent in that age group. For Tiny Tigers, do not expect them to learn much about actual Tae Kwon Do theory or philosophy. They will go through some martial art like motions and learn to say "Yes, Sir" which is nice. I thought that was acceptable, but since leaving ATA, we've had the chance to look at other studios (Tiger Kim's and Steele Creek Martial Arts for example) and saw how much more students actually learn even at that young age. Smaller class sizes and, therefore, individual attention certainly helps and those places are not much more expensive. However, if you are fine with just a physical work out for your little one, then this place is fine. Signing a 6 months or a year contract at this young age is unreasonable. You should be able to discontinue with a 30 day notice. My son did not want to go there anymore after a couple months and neither did I but we were stuck due to a contract. Leaving on a positive note: I did really like Junior instructors especially Mr. Wallace. Five months after discontinuing from ATA my 4 year old still speaks about him with fondness. I hope he opens his own studio. It's also a great idea that the kids get to bring in their art projects and homework for little stars and recognition. It's a good work out for your little one.

This ia a great place to learn about Tae kwon do…read more Having practiced Tae kwon do myself growing up I know how much you can gain from it - both in terms of discipline and control as well as from a sports perspective. The guys behind Sangrock are worldclass. Master Singh is very involved in the global Tae kwon do business and him and his instructors reflect the true meaning behind this sport. I had my now 9 year old in this school since he was 6 and he achieved some amazing things - next year my now 5 year old will start there (he asks me about it every day). This is one of the better schools in Charlotte - not primarily about "fighting" or "self defense" but about control and body/mind liaison.
