I am 56 years old and love this school! Do not believe that martial arts is a sport for children - it is a sport for everyone. I am currently a 2nd degree black belt and am so happy I found this school, it is a competition school and has produced more national winners than any other school! It is a school not only for taekwondo, but teaches hapkido and jujitsu moves as well as weapons!
Since the popularity of mixed Martial Arts hit mainstream media, more and more people in the Simi Valley community are looking to Martial Arts classes for their fitness and workout routine. Our programs in martial arts will help you or your child improve their physical strength, flexibility, confidence, and self-discipline.
Taekwondo is a very systematic martial art from Korea that involves head-height kicks, spinning, jumping, and fast kicking techniques. Taekwondo is recognized as one of the oldest forms of martial arts and one of the more popular forms to learn. Many people enjoy Taekwondo at American Martial Arts Academy because it involves more than just movement of the body, but also positive training of our spirit and mind.

My kids have been attending American Martial Arts Academy since 2010. Both of my kids have earned their black belts and are also competing in the competition team . Both kids have received best possible martial arts training as well as benefited from their other enrichment programs, including art, piano, language, tutoring ,etc. All of their programs demonstrate the spirit of excellence. We feel very blessed to be the benefactors of their excellent program! We would highly recommend this program for anyone interested in martial arts, after school program, and other enrichment programs.

Totally agreed with Vishnu Maddileti. All the Taekwondo values advertised could not be taught to the kids by lecturing but by FOLLOWING them. There are no such thing at this place, unfortunately, only money driven.
