From the reviews

My family's ATA experience has been so great! The instructors are amazing and so helpful. My two kids 4 and 7 really look up to them and feel wanted and comfortable. I've been taking for a while now and am more confident each day due to the self defense and workout twice weekly.

★★★★★ — Kyle, Jul 2016

My daughter and I have been doing Taekwondo with GTMA since 2020, and we love it. The instructors and staff do an awesome job with training, discipline, motivation, and of course martial arts. I highly recommend joining here! Very family oriented and a great monthly price.

★★★★★ — Shawn, Apr 2025

My daughter has been a part of this All Star family since she was 3 years old. The instructors are patient and manage even the shortest attention spans well. My daughter is now 8 and recently earned her black belt! She loves the sport and her All Star family.

Your first Karate class at All Star Martial Arts - North Little Rock

Nervous about walking into a Karate dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and a good sensei expects beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, punches, and kicks — not hard sparring. Step to the side whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot. What to bring: water, and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi and the belt your dojo awards you. Kumite (sparring) eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Karate is a contact sport. Ease in, train within your limits, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
