About Us | Taekwondo school in Clive

I KNOW HOW DIFFICULT AND CONFUSING
FINDING A MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL CAN BE.

I remember when I was a teen, feeling uncertainty about beginning martial arts. I wondered if I had what it took to succeed as I wasn’t athletic or confident - quite the opposite. Little did I know that beginning my martial arts journey would be one of the most profound experiences of my life!

When I opened our school in 2003, I made a commitment to serving and empowering the community of Pella and Clive by teaching children and adults the confidence, leadership, and fitness skills that can only be achieved through martial arts.

WHAT IS SONGAHM TAEKWONDO?

Songahm Taekwondo is the style of martial arts practiced in ATA schools. Songahm means “pine tree and rock”. The term itself represents “evergreen strength the year round, long life and a symbol of unchanging human loyalty” as represented by the pine tree and rock. The journey from White Belt to Black Belt is one of incremental learning and skill development for students of any age and fitness level.

FUN, EXCITEMENT & PREPARATION: ATA MARTIAL ARTS TOURNAMENTS!

One of the most fun parts of martial arts training is the ability to test your skills by competing in a tournament. Tournaments are not only fun for competitors, but they also become a great social experience for parents as well! There are currently 130,000 ATA Martial Arts members worldwide. ATA Martial Arts students compete in local tournaments against other ATA schools, advancing from State, to District, and even National competitions in Orlando,FL and Las Vegas, NV. Every summer, competitors gather at the ATA World Expo Tournament in Little Rock, AR, vying against finalists from across the globe in one of largest martial arts competitions in the world!

Since I've joined Triumph Martial Arts I have nothing but positive things to say about it. The instructors Matt and Chris have been excellent teachers to me and everyone who has been a part of Triumph and very welcoming to anyone wanting to learn self defense or wanting to stay fit. Not only do they teach the defense moves but they also teach you how to keep a level head when have to defend yourself. If you're looking for a gym to learn self defense and stay in shape as well as meet a great group of people I recommend Triumph Martial Arts.

My 6 year old son is enrolled. He loves the class, it's always fun and fast paced. I love that he's learning respect and I also appreciate the self-defense lesson and try to learn them myself as well. All of the helpers are great and Mr. White is excellent with kids. We are very happy we found Triumph!

Going to class Wednesday nights is one of the best parts of my week. I was in the ATA years ago and feel like was welcomed back with open arms. Watching my Kaili and Laeah enjoy this as well warms my heart every week.

Mr. White is an excellent instructor with all ages. The facility is wonderful. My daughter has been in TKD for 6 years and it has helped her physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Kerri Schwarze Schwemm

All of the instructors take their time with the kids, making sure they learn the moves. They communicate so well with the kids.

Betty Van Gelder

Our son has been taking taekwondo through the Tiny Tigers program for a year now. The classes are well-paced, varied in their activities, and fun for the kids. The addition of older students has made it even better, as there is little wait time during different activities, very important for children at this age! The instructors are motivating, positive, and encouraging, always challenging the students to do their best. We highly recommend the program for boys and girls!

Tana Olin

I took the women's self-defense class and it was very informative and helpful! Hands on is such a good practice technique and the instructors were great!

Shannon Brown Graham

The Tigers program is a great experience for young kids. Patient, motivational instructors encourage little ones to listen, follow instructions, and get great exercise. It's a boost to their confidence every time they break a board or master a new move. There's lots of fun time built in to keep little minds and bodies entertained. Highly recommend!

Michelle Robinson

Mr. White is an outstanding instructor and takes time to ensure you have the combative and defensive tactics down. It's also a great work out!

Eric Barrett

Mr. White and his family are very knowledgeable and friendly. Just attended a birthday party. It was a lot of fun.

Sarah H-L

Iowa

The self-defense training was fun and energetic I had fun learning how to protect and prepare myself for a situation that I hope will never come. I learned that self-defense is not just about physically defending myself; it is also about being aware of the way I could be perceived by a possible attacker. I need to be alert, confident and aware of my surroundings at all times. I would recommend this class to anyone, and insist on it for those I love.

Meagan

I am so glad my son is enrolled here. His self esteem has improved and it's something he really looks forward to every week. I'm surprised how fast he catches on! Now.....if they would ever offer kickboxing at the Clive location, It would just be a bonus!!
