What people say about Pruter’s Sport Taekwondo Martial Arts Fitness.

"My family and I began Taekwondo with the Pruter's back in 1999. Their program is by far the best in the nation. We have witnessed personal victory and growth in our family as well as countless other families. Their organization is top notch. I and so many others has been impacted by their faith, their knowledge, their experience in the sport and discipline of Takekwondo, along with their willingness to pour out into each and every person who steps foot into the studio. 

You are not just a membership, you are family! Not only did I achieve a 3rd degree black belt with Pruter's Martial Arts but I have achieved success in every area of my life that carries out into my everyday world and as a minister to successfully impact lives the way they have impacted mine and my family. They continue to set an example of dedication, discipline and a commitment to move those who are desiring to be all they can be in Martial Arts, their family, their careers and their communities.  

I highly recommend Pruter's Sport Taekwondo Martial Arts to anyone."

"Great place to learn for young and old

My daughter has been doing TKD with the Pruter's since she was six. The Future Kid program is a great way for your child to learn the basics and feel successful. Once they move up to the color belt program the students starts to fine tune the skills needed to be the higher belts. My daughter has gotten her second degree black belt and is the youngest member of the elite traveling sparring team. She has competed in many tournaments and competed in Nationals twice. TKD has built her confidence in herself not only in TKD but also in her school and interactions with adults and peers. She is a mentor in the younger classes and provides a roll model for them. As an adult student I'm impressed with the encouragement and positive feedback they provide. I highly recommend Pruter’s Sport Taekwondo.”

"My Daughter started taekwondo...

My Daughter started taekwondo with Pruter's Tkd in 2004 at 5 years old. She started out as a little girl training twice a week and now is 15 and trains with the Pruter's Elite team 5 days a week. This tkd school and the Pruter family have been a big reason for my daughter's success in school as well as tkd. To any parent looking to start their child in tkd , this school teaches discipline and values that will help your child succeed in life.”
