About Us
Wexford ATA works tirelessly for our students to learn the necessary skills for personal development through Taekwondo. We ensure students are pushed to reach for their goals with full determination. Along with self-development, students gain self-defense skills, leadership skills, and self-esteem while engaging with specific classes they need to work on or are interested in. We are able to help our students grow by having a young, energetic, relatable staff that provides exciting classes and are great role models for all of our students. This includes many of our social events, with summer camps, Buddy Days, and Parent Nights Out. Our young but experienced staff is here for all your Taekwondo needs at Wexford ATA!
History
Wexford ATA has been running strong since our doors opened in 2013. Co-owners Alyssa Danley and Colton Langer were some of the first students to enter our doors. As we continued to grow in size and in community involvement, Alyssa and Colton continued on in their martial arts journeys as well. They began together as white belts at Wexford, rising up through the ranks to earn black belts while also helping as instructors. Then in 2023, they took over and became business partners and head instructors at Wexford. By taking charge, they hope to further their contributions to their students, challenging them to reach their fullest potential while training together at Wexford ATA.
