The after school program, day camps, parents night out are very good. My grandchildren enjoy using their services, the martial art classes that were included in the school year after care program was great as well, hope they can add in the future again the Benjamin School pick up but if not it is nice to know we still can use the other events.

We love ❤ Coffrin's ATA. They make class fun and enjoyable while teaching respect, self discipline, team work and a ton of other qualities. They have worked well with my son, encouraging him every step of his journey.

We hosted my sons 5th birthday at Coffrin’s and I cannot recommend it enough! The staff went above and beyond to ensure all of the kids enjoyed themselves and made it a very special experience for the birthday boy! They were cheerful, kind, and communicative leading up to the party and handled everything while we were there so parents could sit back and enjoy watching!

We can't say enough positive things about Coffrin's ATA Martial Arts! Our boys (ages 3 and 4) joined about a month ago and look forward to it every week. They can't wait to go yell "hi-ya!" and engage with the teachers and new friends they've made. As a parent, I appreciate the discipline, structure, and routine this after-school activity offers. 5-star, highly recommend! And owners are incredibly kind and friendly. Love supporting local businesses!

The after school program here is great. We didn’t get into the normal parks and rec after school program and chose just 4 kicks as an alternative. Admittedly I was very worried since my kid had only done the parks and rec after school and summer program.We are one month into the school year and he’s already saying he wants to do coffrins summer program over normal P&R summer camp. To me, that says it all… he loved normal’s program yet when given a choice between the two, he wants to go here in stead of the P&R program.I don’t know as we’ll even try to get back into the p and r programs since the kids love it here.

We started our son at this studio years ago. I was amazed by the staff and the way the interacted with the kids. We have since moved away but are still active in TKD. The Coffrins gave us a solid foundation in the techniques andl instilled a love of the program in us. Our son is now working towards his third degree.

We’ve been a part of the Evening Martial Arts classes at Coffrin’s for just over three years when my then three-year-old joined as a Tiny Tiger. It started out as a fun way for him to learn some self-confidence, discipline, get some energy out, and let’s be honest it was adorable.Now 3+ years later he loves going to class to “learn more ninja moves” and see his karate friends. My other son also joined last year as a beginner and loves it as well.The time, thought, care, and energy the Coffrins and their entire staff put into their programs is truly amazing and appreciated. I have been beyond impressed with the instructors and how well they interact with and manage a room full of wild little kids.We have tried other sports through other programs/facilities and nothing had compared to the martial arts class experience at Coffrin’s (probably why we aren’t doing those other ones anymore!).As an added bonus, they offer multiple fun, free events throughout the year that the kids absolutely love. It’s just another example of their caring and love for this community and their desire and willingness to help make it - and our kids - the best it can be.

We adore coming to Coffrin's ATA! Since starting the classes, my son's attitude and discipline has gotten so much better. They provide great role models for the type of person I want my son to become. He has been a part of the camps and remote learning for years, but watching him grow with his evening classes has been awesome. I love watching him practice at home and go into his classes being sure of himself. The Coffrin's themselves are amazing people and run an amazing business. They answer any questions, are encouraging, fun, and are loving. They also hire great employees. My son seems more social and becoming the leader I always knew he could be. The coaches are great with learning how to deal with all the kids and they can create an experience personalized for them. I know when my son just needs someone to talk to Coach Nick will sit down and just let him talk and coach him through his emotions. My son really get the use of the positive male role models that Coffrin's supplies!

I even signed up my 19 year old twin daughters. We have learned so much. And feel so better physically and mentally.Best investment I have done for myself and my daughters. Mr Coffrin and all the staff are patient and will work with you.I highly recommend Coffrins. Thank you Coffrins
