Instructors
In many martial arts styles, the assumption traditionally has
been that once students earn their black belts they are ready to teach other
students. But the ATA does not believe that simply being able to do something
well qualifies a person to teach it. During the last 30 years, the ATA has
developed an intensive instructor training program to insure that all ATA
instructors are skilled and professional teachers.
Before becoming certified, ATA black belts spend 2-3 years as instructor trainees, during which time they are required to teach at least 300 hours under the supervision of a senior instructor. They are also required to earn certification in CPR and Youth Protection and to attend instruction camps. Chief Instructor:
