From the reviews
Our family has been attending Murphy ATA for taekwondo, and we couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Master Hornbuckle, Mr. Rogers, and Ms. Vo are exceptional instructors who go above and beyond to ensure every student succeeds.
Great place to train. Really god for young children to learn discipline and body control. Found it useful training for my son, and improved his baseball skills becasue he understood his body movements better. Fun training for adults as well. I was in the best shape I've ever been in when I was competing regularly.
We love Murphy ATA! The classes are very structured and organized, and the staff is friendly and helpful. They give thorough instruction and really help the students progress in their form, technique and confidence as they move up through the different belt levels.
I love this place. My 2 kids go there. We have been going 5 months at the time of me writing this review. We started when they had a special. I think it was 4 weeks for $49. Check their web site. All of the staff are great with children. Great energy great environment.
Your first Karate class at Elevate Martial Arts Murphy
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.
