I love martial arts at Bloomington ATA. We were amazed and shocked… in the best way possible!! The instructors are the best in any kids activity anywhere! My son has mild autism - started at 3 years old - and hes now 15. He has blossomed into a strong, confident leader. Hes a starter on his football team and track... just got all As in high school his freshman year... and has lots of friends.Without it I dont know where he would be! Thanks!

Great facility the staff are very polite and understanding. If you have questions and concerns you are always greeted with a smile and they will answer any questions you have pretty quickly. They were able to adapt to Covid-19 very quickly and now offer classes online and in person. Friendly place to train and everyone is treated like family. For me it is a second home. I have been training at ATA for a little over 4 years now and I love it. I’ve made great friends and learned so much, none of it would have been possible if it wasn’t for the Bossticks and the team and leadership that comes with it. Thank you!!!

Family environment that supports students of all ages. Their response to covid has made it possible for my daughter to keep up with lessons, and they were very understanding and supportive as my daughter was having issues with motivation. Ive been impressed with them and their commitment to teaching their art.

This facility is phenomenal and the staff are extremely friendly. My family attends as a group and we have always enjoyed the experience. It is entirely a situation of, “you get out of it, what you put into it”. I am a military member, and have seen an increase in my confidence in my ability to lead, and physical fitness since joining. They spend a good amount of time ensuring that the students understand the basics and have a solid foundation before entering the higher ranks, while also working to instill strong moral values and ideals. They also offer classes besides taekwondo, and extra events for children and families. I highly recommend them for any family interested in a fun and fulfilling activity that they can do to grow together.

I have been studying Martial Arts at Bloomington ATA for 5 years with my daughters. It has been a wonderful place to train. The instructors are excellent and very proficient in dealing with students of all ages. I would recommend them to anyone interested in not only Martial Arts but making new friends.

At first all I knew was I wanted to do something for myself, so I ventured to ATA with just a passion for martial arts. After watching a few classes with another student I knew it was for me. Upon meeting the staff personally I knew I had found a second home. Now I am on the road to self discovery with an awesome family. Thank you, ATA!

Very positive atmosphere with lots of encouragement. The family helps set individual goals with each student and stresses core values at every class. Since my son has been attending, his confidence level has increased along with his focus in school. I would highly recommend Bloomington ATA and the B family is just wonderful. You can definitely tell they care about every student/family and they go above and beyond always.

Bloomington ATA is great place to work out and grow as a martial artist. Dedicated and passionate instructors lead a wide variety of high energy classes that challenge students at all levels. The friendly, respectful, and diverse atmosphere is perfect for kids and families as well as the experienced practitioner ready to discover new possibilities.

This isnt just a business. This is a family. A very nice facility ran by some my amazing people. My children love spending their free time here and are learning so many positive life skills in doing so. Very structured and family oriented facility.

They talk a good game but I feel totally taken advantage of. They lied online about their ‘special deal’ and as soon as we missed one class, stopped encouraging my son. They did not follow through with giving him the gear I paid for and did not reschedule a meeting with us that they were two classes late for in the first place. They did the exact same things in 10 classes, no real progress and even I got bored. My son obviously did, too. And now I’m stuck in a contract for a year paying $250 a month... unless we move out of state or my son becomes hospitalized. Soooo, join the scam if you want, but good luck.

I called to get info on registration. The woman was being super shady about giving me information over the phone. Then she talked down to me when I asked her for pricing. Oh, then she blocked me on Facebook. Avoid at all costs. I wouldnt trust my child at a place like this. Want more proof? Read the other 1 star review. SHADY

Since my son has been attending classes at ATA in Bloomington In. He has built up confidence, he has learned that the more he puts into it the more he gets out. He is self disciplined to practice each night for at least 20 min. The instructors are great and I def recommend for people to give your child a life time experience and you will not be disappointed!Jammie and Kenyenne Hooper

Absolutely a wonderful place for young and adults alike. I started off with little confidence in my ability as well as physical issues. The instructors are amazing in helping you understand techniques and will adapt moves if you have any physical limitations. Of course the physical benefits are a plus! I got started by winning three months of free lessons and here I am almost a year later continuing on and getting ready to test for my yellow belt. The instructors and staff are so personable and easy to talk to and I would say they are a second family to me. If you’re looking for a place for your kids to learn self-defense or get some of their energy out I highly recommend Bloomington ATA. And I would say the same for adults as well! Sure you push yourself but you’ll end up becoming a better person as a result.

My family and I started taekwondo here about a year ago and it has been such a fun and enlightening journey thus far. We are a military family that had recently moved in the area and had been looking for a strong and fun family activity to do. We are very thankful we found this studio.The school is very clean, safe, family oriented, organized, fun, and offers a lot of classes to meet any scheduling conflicts. The instructors have always been kind, attentive and welcoming to us. Their knowledge and expertise is so vast and their energy is electric. We always have a good time and definitely get a good work out. There have been so many benefits to learning here it is hard to name just a few.Attending this academy has given our 7 yr old daughter so much more confidence in herself and in trying new things. It continues to reinforce true morals, good values and life lessons that we try to teach at home, in a fun and respectful atmosphere. She has always been a bubbly and sweet girl, but we have seen an improvement in her attitude, the way she carries herself, following directions, etc. It has been such a joy to see her smile in class and how excited she gets to show me her moves. :) The instructors are so happy, helpful, and incredibly supportive. I am a disabled veteran and they always encourage me to do what I can, do my best, and help me meet new physical and life goals. I have seen a gain in my confidence, my strength (physically, mentally and emotionally) and a major change in my attitude since attending here.You learn not only how to defend yourself but also important grounding foundations and building blocks that I believe any parent would want their child(ren) to learn. The ethics that are taught here, and THE WAYS they are taught are perfect for little ones to learn and understand all the way up to and including adults because sometimes we need help or a reminder too. It is fun and insightful for all ages.Our experience here has truly been such a blessing. Our family has grown closer, we have grown together, we are learning self defense (who doesnt want to learn a cool kick or Martial arts move?) and we have made some new and wonderful friends. We have gained and continue to gain new strengths, insights and perspectives about the world, life, and ourselves; not just physically but emotionally and mentally too. We have also grown as individuals and that really makes me happy both as a parent and a human because self care and growth are very important.You can learn so much from learning/studying Martial arts because it opens up so many different doors of knowledge. So much more than learning Martial arts is offered here. The Bosstick family has created a unique, supportive, fun, and uplifiting environment that is welcoming to all. You know that warm feeling you get when you think of your family or being in good company? Thats the feeling I get being a student here. Its truly an incredible community; a family. Everyone supports you, and your instructors truly care about you on and off the mat. I absolutely recommend this school for a family or even just for yourself. We have learned so much and cant thank them enough for the wonderful experiences we have had.

We have been very pleased with our experiences over the last 6 months. The classes have been well structured and maintain our childs interest. They have been helpful in teaching our 6 year old son discipline, structure and confidence. We are looking forward to our first tournament this upcoming weekend.
