"ATA N Canton has got to be one of the best martial arts programs in northeastern Ohio. My son has multiple disabilities and the time and patience Derrick and the rest of the staff have with him to help him succeed in the sport he loves is unmatched. They have taught him so much about hard work and confidence and because of them, he even competed and placed first in multiple divisions in a state tournament. We are grateful for ATA and would highly recommend!"
What Our Families Are Saying
Families throughout Stark County have trusted North Canton ATA since 2005. Here are a few of their experiences.
"My son has been going here for about a year, and he loves it! Mr. Howryla, Mr. Huntsman, and Mr. Butine are so great with the kids. They are so friendly, they make classes interesting and fun while still teaching the kids a lot, are encouraging when the kids need more help, and are so patient."
"The best part for me, is that my son recently wanted to take his medals he got at tournaments to show and tell at school - he put them on, looked at himself in the mirror and said, 'I'm proud of me!' As a mom, that makes my heart so full and happy that he can feel confident and good about himself and the hard work he's doing. Highly recommend North Canton ATA!"

"An absolutely professional, skilled and kid friendly atmosphere. The instructors, Mr. Howryla and Mr. Huntsman are outstanding in their methods of instruction, discipline and training. Our son started this year and is 5. It was so hard finding a place that would start teaching at this age. He has ADHD and really has benefited from this and will continue here through his Taekwondo journey. Thank you!"
