"Our
son, Eli, recently switched from another Martial Arts school
to Mr. Howard's Black Belt Acadey School. For various reasons
he was discouraged at the other school and it broke my heart
to see him lose confidence in himself. Mr. and Mrs. Howard
were extremely sensitive to Eli as he made the transition
and we are so thankful to Mr. and Mrs. Howard for their kindness
and generosity of themselves. Eli now expresses that he feels
like he is learning, getting a good workout, making friends,
and looks forward to each class. I enjoy being part of the
friendly atmosphere at the school when I go to watch. The
change was definitely positive."

My
son, Cole, struggled with self-image and coordination problems
from an early age. He has been helped so much through this
sport. I now can see it transfer to his pose and polish as
he competes in speech and debate.

Since
Ryan has begun attending Taekwondo we have seen a definite
improvement in his self esteem and his ability to focus. Ryan
has always been hesitant to become involved in activities
due to anxiety. Howard's ATA is the first place that Ryan
has not only felt comfortable, but looks forward to going
to. For the first time, Ryan is truly proud of himself and
his accomplishments.

"As
my daughters and I have progressed in our Taekwondo classes
at Howard's ATA, I have noticed an improvement in our confidence
in our ability to learn the material as well as perform in
front of a group of people. Plus...we have fun practicing
together as a family!"
