EVERY DAY IS AN OPPORTUNITY

Welcome to Coppell ATA Martial Arts

We offer what we believe is the best martial art in the world. Taekwondo is an exciting and powerful martial art known for its dynamic kicking and hand techniques. Although these martial art techniques are centuries old, our programs are always evolving to keep pace with the rapidly changing world.  We offer classes for ages 3-6 (ATA Tigers), 7-12 (Juniors and Preteens) 13-up Teens/Adults. We provide Traditional Songham Taekwondo Forms, weapons and sparring.  We also offer both extreme/creative martial arts training, which demonstrates both open hand and weapon training.  Extreme and Creative utilize traditional taekwondo, power tumbling and tricking into routines. 

Through the use of Taekwondo we instill such life skills as Self Esteem, Respect, Communication, Belief, Discipline, and Honesty in all our students YOUNG and OLD.   Contact our Coppell, Texas school today at 972-462-7807 to learn more.
