Master Shankar for all your support .

This has been a great experience for our boys (6 and 9 years). Their teacher, Mr. Jay, is so good at keeping class exciting and students engaged. They have been in martial arts classes before, but this is the first time they have been this motivated to attend. Every time I ask them how class went, they always respond “awesome!”

Queen city ATA is a family friendly Martial arts Academy. Mr.Shankar is a dedicated, indefatigable,  excellent Instructor who always leads us from the front.  He always pays attention towards his students progress and encourages them to do their best. I highly recommend Queen City ATA for everyone.

I am a student at Queen City ATA Martial Arts for 1.5 years now and enjoy the classes very much. We learn how to defend ourselves and about interesting weapons. And our instructor always finds a way to make class entertaining and informative. My concentration and discipline has also improved after attending his classes.

Wonderful ATA academy and Excellent trainer, I have ever got in my life! Mr.Shankar is a cool, friendly and fun filled trainer, who never gets tired. He has so much passion to teach Taekwondo (and even cross training) to each individual. He motivates each one of us to participate in competition for greater exposure and to gain confidence. Even if we are not ready/fit for the rank testing/competition, he put extra effort to bring us to the speed, with no additional cost for private coaching. He is always available whenever we need his guidance on Martial Arts. A fun filled classes which keeps you fit and focused.

I highly recommend training at Queen City ATA! Mr. Jay is an Internationally Certified Chief Instructor with the world renowned American Taekwondo Association. His personable yet professional teaching style is what attracts students of all ages. He, his wife, and his daughter are all Black Belts within the ATA so he knows exactly what it takes to help families benefit from the martial arts. Mr. Jay - you rock! Your passion for the martial arts is inspiring!

If you're looking for a martial arts school that truly cares about its students' success, look no further. Queencity ATA Martial Arts provide all the latest technology and resources to help you reach your full potential and excel

Wonderful ATA academy and Excellent trainer, i have ever got in my life! Mr.Shankaran Jayakumar is cool, friendly and fun filled trainer, who never gets tired and spreads the positive vibes all around. He has so much passion to teach Taekwondo (and even other cross training) to each individual. He motivates us to participate in competition for better exposure and to gain confidence. Even if we are not ready/fit for the competition, he put extra focus and efforts to give you a lift and with that focused training we won lots of medals! He provide extra private classes or group classes to train us before testing/competition, with no additional cost for private coaching. And I ping him every now and then, asking some queries in Taekwondo and he replies me immediately when he sees the message. I am lucky to get such a wonderful trainer!! And I strongly recommend with 5 out of 5 rating.

Most passionate teacher we've ever met. Thanks a ton Shankar for being teacher to my daughters. I believe this training will help my daughters stay fit.
