My experience with Coffrins wasn't bad, but it wasn't worth the money invested either. They are very expensive for the little you get. For 2 kids I paid $2,444.00 for a year and that included the uniforms. For that amount of money the kids could go to lass 2 times a week and they got to wear a standard white uniform. Anything more than that and the price goes up exponentially. This does not include rank graduation - it's called this because the kids aren't really tested. The kids and I started going to a different studio after the Coffrin's wanted the kids to test for their purple belts after only 4 classes. They didn't know their stuff in that short of a time. Google ATA Martial Arts Scams to check yourself. They used high pressure sales tactics with the kids right there - they got all hyped up and excited so I did not say no. The kids liked going there, but they weren't learning what I was paying for and that bothered me. We started as White Belts at Walker's Tae Kwon Do and we love it. Now there is a family oriented place! read more

Both of my boys (4 and 5 years old) love going here two times a week. I appreciate their structure and routine. We love that they know our boys by their name. They do a lot of positive praise and reinforcement. I love that my boys are learning how to follow directions the first time, show respect, self-defense but also confidence. With both of my boys, there is a time during class when they bring a loved one onto the mat to practice/bond together. Sometimes we are instructed to look each other in the eyes and share what is great about the other person! One of the coolest parts is their rank graduation. They recognize their hard work and accomplishments by giving them a new belt. This is really motivating for my boys and gets them excited for the next class. At rank graduation, the place is packed full of families cheering for their student and other students as well. Overall, when you join here, it is like joining a community full of a strong support network. I highly recommend :) read more

I want to personally thank Sr. Master Corey Coffrin and his partner in business and life, Mrs. Coffrin. The two of you and your staff have done a wonderful job creating a safe environment for both kids and adults to learn martial arts and various leadership/life skills. Over the last two years I have had the joy of watching my son develop as a martial artist and leader. Not only has my son been a student in their Tae Kwon Do classes, I have been a student of their Krav Maga class as well. I'm very happy to say all of this began with a student birthday party hosted by Coffrin's ATA. Parents, if you're looking for an activity that helps build confidence, self esteem, fitness and a skillset that may one day protect your child, Coffrin's ATA is an excellent choice! read more

My son loves Coffrin's ATA Martial Arts! Master Coffrin, Mrs. Coffrin, and two sons have truly created something special with their program! They not only teach martial arts and weapons training, but they also have an awesome leadership program which educates children on important foundational character traits such as being respectful, self-discipline, self-esteem, honesty, and communication. As an educator myself I have seen a decline in these very important life skills in children these days. If you want your child to have the added benefit of a high quality martial arts program along with leadership skills training, you will take a moment to consider Coffrin's ATA program! It is an investment that I will NEVER regret! read more

Coffrin's ATA is by far the best martial arts studio in central Illinois! I've trained at the Coffrin's for the past two years and wouldn't have it any other way. The Coffrin's lead by example by teach not only Taekwondo and self defense but respect, courtesy, honor, perseverance, goal setting and anti bullying. All of which we need to learn in order to prosper. They are very affordable and family oriented. Through hard work and dedication, I've learned a lot that will help me in life. For that I recommend anyone and everyone to check out Coffrin's ATA Martial Arts today and see how they can change your life for the better! read more

I have to be honest, I have always thought to myself there has to be a "better deal out there." But once this crap started I knew my family was in the right place. I was happy with the classes and the kids really liked Mrs. Coffrin, but what pushed me over the edge was when this whole fake review crap started. Mr. Coffrin told me about it and I offered to slam the other school but he wouldn't hear of it. That was all I needed to hear. I love being in a place where they practice what they preach. Bravo Mr. and Mrs. Coffrin! Much Success! read more

Rip off! You do NOT get what you pay for. 1300.00 a year for 1 person be limited to 2 classes a week is wrong. To take more classes you have to sign a 3 year contract which is plain crazy then you get to pay about 350.00 a month. And - the Taekwondo taught isn't recognized among oth Taekwondo schools - it's watered down. ATA black belt = a yellow belt elsewhere. Don't believe it? Google ATA Martial Arts Scams. read more

These people are awesome! They take ordinary people, lift them up, and make them leaders. The life skills that they instill into their students and ANYONE around them are invaluable. They are full of integrity inside and outside of the studio and care deeply for all those who come into their lives. All of this can be witnessed by watching their own two boys. You just can't go wrong with Instructors like that! read more
