Services
Welcome to our school of physical fitness that teaches the ancient and scientific art of Taekwondo. In this age of turmoil, it is important that one maintain strength within one's self (both mental and physical strength) so that one can cope with obstacles and difficulties in life more successfully.
At KTA, we offer a unique and proven training program that is proven to increase focus, discipline, and coordination. Our staff continually educates and improves themselves, bringing the highest quality instruction to KTA students. KTA has produced the highest level athletes in the sport of Taekwondo in Indiana and in the U.S.
KTA offers special children classes daily that are tailored for their shorter attention span. At KTA, our highly trained Black Belt team of instructors specializes in teaching children more than Taekwondo and self-defense skills; we also focus on improving their confidence, attention span, and respect for others.
While many martial arts schools focus primarily on children, KTA offers a curriculum geared solely for adults. Whether you choose to train during your lunch break or prefer evening classes, you are assured there are a variety of options available to you. We pride ourselves on being one of the few schools that offer adult classes both day and evening!
At KTA, we firmly believe that Taekwondo training develops a closer family bond when your entire family participates. Regardless of which phase of life you are in, the benefits of Taekwondo training are profound and positive. Why not train together as a family? You will be spending quality time together while everyone benefits and grows while encouraging one another - which creates a stronger relationship within your family!

I really don't know where to start with this review as either way it's going to be very long. Anyways, here we go with this review of this lovely TaeKwonDo school/community.
I have been training at this TaeKwonDo school for a while; maybe around 3 years now. I have had prior TaeKwonDo experience before coming here; however because my family moved a lot and each style was a bit different I always had to start over no matter how far along or close I was to black belt. Every time we made a move I always got discouraged as I kept having to restart.
When we made the move to Indiana I was starting

Warm family atmosphere yet focused on traditional discipline. Head instructor Grand Master Cooley regularly represents the US at world level forms competitions. When younger he did the same in sparring competitions. Highly medaled in both areas he teaches traditional Tae Kwon Do.

We have been with this location for a little over a year and overall have enjoyed our experience.

Even though it Taekwondo is mainly an individual sport (self discipline, self focus, individual response to protection and fighting)...at this dojo, it is very much a team effort and support to help individuals achieve their best potential. This teamwork also stretches outside of the classroom, with Master Cooley asking if there is anything that he can help address while the student is in class time.

Testing
The testings are done as a group by belt rank. When it has come time to break the boards

Amazing experience with our son!! He has developed commitment, respect for adults, and self-discipline and more dedication to completing tasks through KTA. Great adult involvement. Tremendous value for price. He is now well on his way to second-level balckbelt.

We just signed our son up last week for Taekwondo, and he loves it already. I sent a message online and was contacted the same day with information. Everyone was so friendly and inviting from the second we walked in the door. We were expected and they all knew my sons name from the first day and at each lesson. Master Cooley is wonderful and very personable. Would defiantly recommend this place and did so with my coworkers! The expect great things from the kids not only in the do jang but at home and school. This is a great program to help your children grow.

KTA is one of the most beneficial experiences a person could have. It does not only teach you how and when to defend yourself but how to apply almost everything you learn to everyday life situations. The character i have today would not have been if i had never began TeaKwonDo. Recomend black belt.

I am a black belt at this school, and soon hope to branch off into other martial arts. Training here is a lot more than just exercise. The focus on positive mentality, respect and hard work is impressive. People are friendly and helpful. However, since it is such a large school, in order to get individual attention you really have to seek it out.

Master Cooley does more than teach you or your child about Tae Kwon Do, he helps prepare them for life both at and away from home. He teaches and allows real application through sparring in class. A great place at an overall excellent value! You might come to try it but you'll stay because you love it! Hope this helps.

If you're going to put your hours on google as 10am-9pm, and I show up at 3pm.... you should be open.

In my experience with the people I have met at KTA one thing rings loud and true, not only as martial artists, as people come, KTA produces some of the greatest people I have met!
