Hollender's Taekwondo is proud to be an accredited member of the ATA family. Founded over 25 years ago, and having trained more than 130,000 men, women, and children, the ATA is the parent company to more than 800 schools in the United States alone. One of the many advantages of the ATA is that all of it's member schools teach the Songahm style of Taekwondo and all forms and techniques are uniform throughout the organization. That way, if you are taking classes in one state and then move to another, you can retain your rank and continue your training from where you left off. The ATA has practicing students from five years old into their seventies and also has the largest number of active women black belts of any martial arts organization in the world.
Taekwondo offers something that no other sport can.
Much of this interest can be attributed to the nature of Taekwondo technique. In self defense, striking, and kicking is instinctive and these of techniques can be readily adapted to a woman's physical structure. As we age our flexibility and agility often tends to decrease. This decreased level of flexibility can have a negative effect on the activities we do or the style of life we lead. When people first see Taekwondo techniques, they are fascinated by the strong, high kicks, often over their heads.
