Impact Martial Arts (formerly known as Poway ATA Martial Arts) is a proud member of the American Taekwondo Association (ATA).  We are the premier martial arts academy in Poway, California, dedicated to the Korean martial art discipline of Taekwondo.  In addition to Taekwondo, we offer a wide range of other martial arts program such as Kickboxing, Krav Maga (Israeli martial art system), and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to help students become well-rounded martial artists.
Since the inception, the focus of our program has remained the same: To provide students the highest martial arts instruction available in a safe and positive learning environment that people of all ages can enjoy.
At Impact Martial Arts, we’re serious about martial arts.

WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT US!

“My son has been training here for 2 years – I love the instructors and the way they interact with the students. My son not only gets physical training but more importantly Character training – we are very happy with his growth at Impact Martial Arts in Poway!!!!” – Terese Tye

“I have my granddaughter in this school it great for her and all the instructors are knowledgeable and what most important they have patients.” – Abrahim Abdul Rahim

“Although self-defense is generally what I think about when I hear “martial arts,” this studio has gone way beyond that in the development of our children. I believe confidence is the #1 benefit that both of our children have gained from this program. Providing a chance for children to gain experience leading the class (with many students older than they are), teaching other students at a lower rank, and presenting their skills in front of the class or judges at graduation, provides a rare opportunity for any activity geared toward children. We have a 9 year-old boy who just became a 2nd degree black belt. He is a spirited, yet sensitive kid, and Mr. Nguyen has taken him under his wing and turned him into a champion, both in karate and in his life outside the studio. He’ll compete in the world championships this month. Our 7 year-old daughter can be very shy, but she has gained self-confidence, strength and flexibility through this program. We’ve realized that Black Belt is a title that our kids will have for a lifetime. Long after they have forgotten a winning season in baseball or soccer, they will always remember the significance of becoming a black belt, and the confidence they gained will last a lifetime. We are so lucky to be involved with these great instructors. p.s. I don’t work for the studio and this is an authentic review. I am happy to recommend Impact 100%!” – Tim P.
