"The atmosphere and energy at Fort ATA are ideal for my son and me. Everyone is incredibly supportive of each other, and there's no competitive attitudes adding a bunch of stress. I really appreciate how Mr. Fortenberry has supported me in continuing to train, even when I have so many restrictions on what I can do. He has always been careful not to ask me to do anything that might hurt me and has given me lots of space to do what I can without feeling inferior because I'm limited. he is great at gauging each class's unique makeup and ensuring what we do fits the abilities and levels of those attending. Even though we drive almost an hour and a half round trip to attend an hour or an hour-and-a-half class, it's always worth it."

"Three ideas come to mind when thinking of Fort ATA Martial Arts: God Fearing, Leadership, and Family. These qualities are sown into the very fabric of Mr. Daniel Fortenberry’s instruction at Fort ATA Martial Arts. My son and I entered this program as a way for us to spend more quality time together, but what we gained was an entire extended family and a new lifestyle. Being a part of this program has brought us much closer together as father and son. It has given us a common ground to build upon. As parents, sometimes we can get lost in life itself and forget that our children are their own individuals. They have their own challenges of the modern day that are completely different than what we may have had to endure. It is my firm belief that God placed Mr. Fortenberry and his school is our lives for a reason. We love the fact that he is solid in his faith and exemplifies what it means to be a God-Fearing man and leader. At times, it feels our society is void character and truth, it is a pleasure to bring my son into a dojang that these very principles are on full display. It is a pleasure to call Mr. Fortenberry my instructor, mentor, and friend."
