I love this place. They really instill morals ethics and self discipline all while teaching the students self defense and the techniques of tae kwon do. This is a great place for young boys and girls to be around positive influences that help shape great citizens of society.

I re-enrolled my children after Master Brandon took over and they enjoy coming to Taekwondo and are pushed in an encouraging manner to reach their potential.

It is the perfect place to learn for all ages and ranks. In general, I would say that the Dojang is family-friendly, insightful on multiple arts, philosophy-oriented, and diverse. I would also say when visiting this dojang, you will be well-versed in the fundamentals ( For both TKD and Judo). P.S.

It is the perfect place to learn for all ages and ranks. In general, I would say that the Dojang is family-friendly, insightful on multiple arts, philosophy-oriented, and diverse. I would also say when visiting this dojang, you will be well-versed in the fundamentals ( For both TKD and Judo). P.S. If taken seriously and you ask the right questions, you will learn how to use these techniques in both competitions and real-life applications. In other words, it will free your mind. Other than that, oss and be water, my friends👏🏽 Less

Perfect for all ages! The instructors are patient.

My son did a trial and fell in love! He just started and you would never know. All the kids know each other’s names and welcomed him so graciously.

Prior to joining American Martial Arts Academy, my daughter was rather shy and lacked the confidence I knew she had deep down inside her.... After just a month of training under Master Brandens wing... she is more confident in herself and is more willing to try knew things! Master Brandens love for taekwondo and teaching the youth really shines through his classes!

My son has been attending here for about 6 months and he enjoys it a lot. Master Brandon and the other instructors are great and patient with the children.

Absolutely love the martial arts training program offered at the American Martial Arts Academy. I have two children enrolled. I have seen so much growth in my son - self-confidence, patience, focus, and learning many valuable lessons along the way. Such a supportive environment both from the instructors and parents - truly a martial arts family. Highly recommend!

My son loves this class. Master Branden and his staff are very professional. They all communicate very well with the class.

My twins have been coming here for six months and love it.

This place is amazing. Master Brandon is an excellent teacher and a great role model for children. Both my boys have been going there for five years and they learned so much!

Both My Sons(Ages 12 yrs & 5 yes) have been attending American Martial Arts Academy For about a Year now. Not only are all the Masters/Maam caring and interactive but they have built a program that allows not only my boys but other students to grow in many directions to become a truly well rounded martial artists. This program not only encompasses the physical aspects of self defense in all ages but also the mental, and spiritual aspects as well. They provide great Energy and A great Sense of Humor. They make sure they apply the rules and regulations not only in the Dojang but also Apply them for home. Since taking the classes my boys have become more focused and Disciplined at Home and at School on a daily. Less

I have two children enrolled here, they LOVE IT. The owner is very knowledgeable and always teaches the students the history or reason of each method of their training.

Can’t say enough good things about American Martial Arts Academy ! They truly care about each individual student and their progress day by day. My son has been going since he was 3 1/2, now he is almost 5 & the growth I have seen in him not only as a beginning martial artist but also as a person is phenomenal.

Great environment. Great teachers. Learned much more than just martial arts here.

Master Branden is the most amazing instructor ever! So knowledgeable, patient, and skilled. He does a great job training his students.

My son loves American Martial Arts Academy! The instructors are great with a good mix of fun and discipline!

Great group to be associated with. The instructors are informative and patient with the students. My child looks forward to each class and is always excited to learn something new.

My son been coming here about 3 years already and we absolutely love it, it keeps my son busy!

Uncle studied with you in mount greenwood. Became a navy egineer. Recommended i study with you

My daughter is black belt and she was with Master Yoon for 2-3years this is the bast place.I highley recommend we miss u guys.

American Martial Arts is the best martial art school in the Alsip area. The opportunity to learn from a Grandmaster is priceless. The classes are family oriented and are structured for children all the way to adult. This school is truly a 5 STAR school!

I started with Master Yoon in the late eighties. I was in my 40s and I weighed 232 lbs. I will be 69 on the 20th of this month and I now weigh 140 lbs. and I'm a 4th degree black belt. I thought I was too old to take Martial arts but Master Yoon talked me into it and I have never regretted it. My husband and my son are black belts also .

I started with Master Yoon in the late eighties. I was in my 40s and I weighed 232 lbs. I will be 69 on the 20th of this month and I now weigh 140 lbs. and I'm a 4th degree black belt. I thought I was too old to take Martial arts but Master Yoon talked me into it and I have never regretted it. My husband and my son are black belts also . Master Yoon is an awesome person and instructor. Whether you want to lose weight or get into physical shape the self defense you will learn will be a plus. He also has 2 kids class (different ages) and the kids love it they think they are playing a game sometimes and they are really learning not just self defense but also discipline, respect for others and get physically in shape. I highly recommend taking a class, make it a family affair you won't regret it. Less

I have been a student of GrandMaster Yoon starting in the late 80's when he opened his first school in Mount Greenwood. We are so honored in Alsip to have him as our teacher at this humble school and location. I highly recommend you come to study with us. Many wonderful students will help the willing person to achieve great things under the direction of our teacher.

I'm a judo student at AMA and I enjoy the good working relationship that exists between fellow students. Egos are left at the door and Master Yoon puts us through a exhausting and productive workout on the mat.
