Testimonials

"As I write this testimonial, I can't believe how many years have passed since I first entered your ATA academy with my two nervous but eager children. I enrolled my children in 2008 and have seen such a tremendous growth in them during all these years at ATA. Mr. Onorato has had such a positive influence on Eryn and Rey. They are stronger, more confident and less shy then when they entered. I also love that you have a special needs class for my daughter Eryn so she can grow at her own pace and with patience and understanding.

I truly believe that my daughter is more coordinated and displays more self-control. I believe she feels more confident and had more self-discipline for herself and others. My daughter has changed her work habits at school and at home. Her overall attitude towards school, and following directions have improved drastically. I believe ATA has had a role in her accomplishing all of these things.

I believe my son has gained more confidence in himself and his abilities. I think he has gained a sense of respect and responsibility in himself and others since attending ATA. Taekwondo has kept him in better shape both mentally and physically. He has made many friends and enjoys his time at ATA. He started when he was 10 an is now a 13 year old first degree black belt, is in a leadership and XMA team. Taekwondo has truly changed his life for the better by having Mr. Onorato as an instructor. Rey has changed for good because of ATA. Thank you!" –Mrs. Delgado

"When my son began his journey with the ATA I was a bit hesitant. I wasn't sure if this was the right thing for him. I am so glad I made the right decision, things couldn't have turned out any better. He went from being a shy kid lacking confidence to being a straight 'A' student, 1st degree black belt and future instructor.

ATA martial arts helped my son gain confidence, self-esteem, respect and self discipline. The ATA black belt academy of Woodbridge does an outstanding job in terms of being highly attentive to all the children. Getting to know everyone on a first name basis and positively motivating the kids to be respectful of others.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Onorato head instructor, the academy, and all the other wonderful instructors for doing such a wonderful job." –Mrs. Mandes

"My son loves learning Taekwondo at ATA. He looks forward to coming to class ever week!" –Beth Ford

"My daughter Medha has been getting training of Taekwondo from ATA-Fords, NJ for the last three years or so. It has helped my daughter in getting more focused and becoming a better person, in all aspects. I have noticed a drastic improvement in her and in other activities besides Taekwondo since she joined here.

The instructors are very cooperative and helpful. I would recommend ATA Fords to all parents who want their kids to become a better citizen. –Manish Dabral

"My son is currently enrolled in the special abilities class at ATA Woodbridge/Fords. It has really improved his attitude, confidence, muscle tone and focus."

I would highly recommend this school. –Mrs. Ryan

"I was never interested in martial arts other than watching movies. In August 2008 my daughters decided to try out a class at Woodbridge ATA. Well, they loved it and in September 2008, we signed them up for the 6-month program along with my husband (who loves martial arts). They would try to get me to join but I never wanted to."

As it got closer to May 2009, my husband signed me up for the "Mother's Day" month. Reluctantly (and with much pleading), I tried the classes for the month of May. Surprisingly to me, I loved it and so I also signed up.

My girls and my husband all tested in November 2010 for their 1st degree black belts and passed. I tested in May 2011 for my 1st degree black belt and also passed. We are now truly a black belt family. Thank you Mr. Onorato and ATA!" –The Arvizu Family

"I can't say enough good things about Mr. O and the family community at ATA Woodbridge. My son Connor has learned so much here in such a short period of time and continues to progress on a weekly basis. The technical and personal support from Mr. O and his staff is amazing, both on and off the mat! Joining ATA Woodbridge has been a great decision." –Barbara Burns Freeman

"I would like to share my own experience as a student of Mr. Tony Onorato of Woodbridge ATA. I joined the Taekwondo class at the age of 45 and I can tell you that age is not a problem for learning. Mr. O knows how to teach his students without any hiccups and we enjoyed his classes and together it is like a family event." –Jaya Sunil
