Yeah, a lot of people have issues with the ATA. I’ve trained ATA for a long time I was all about ATA, but the longer I was in it the more problems came to light. There are a lot of horrible people in the ATA and I cannot lie about that. As for the style, I did see some really good martial artists but they probably had really good instructors. That were probably more of the old school. I know this new generation really didn’t do any favors for ATA.
@MrTKD123 glad you saw the light. It's like a cult. Any good martial artists in ATA are from other styles who joined for the money etc. you should train in Kukkiwon affiliated dojangs at least to get the authentic Korean style. But good martial artists are up to the individual.
@ yeah it took me a couple years, but nothing was getting any better. I did take tang so do for a bit got my red belt and really enjoyed that style. But there’s some issues in that style too. But that’s still had some problems too.

well ATA style tkd is sure not practical self defense! try some good old "shotokan" karate-do for awhile!
yes i agree
ATA is the worst offender of the mcodojang styles of fake Taekwondo.
