All Star Academy & American Institute of Taekwondo

All Star Academy & American Institute of Taekwondo The premier martial arts center, after-school program, and summer camp for children in Grand Prairie and surrounding cities! Since 1986.

The Karate Kidz program of the American Institute of Taekwondo is a program that helps children become better versions of themselves! What sets our center apart from the average karate school is (1) our specialized expertise in working with Children; and (2) the age-specific training that each student receives. Dr. Judy Flury, the owner of our school, is a personality psychologist, and has worked with children for over 30 years. Aside from teaching at our school, Dr. Flury has worked various Grand Prairie elementary schools by providing bully-prevention presentations, is on the faculty board of the Martial Art Teacher’s Association, and authored the book “How to Raise a Real Winner: Simple Strategies to Give Your Child the Qualities of Success.”

Our age-specific Karate SKILLZ children's program is internationally acclaimed, and is currently being taught in over 100 professional martial arts schools in 7 countries. The Karate SKILLZ are amazing age-specific curricula (4-6 years, 7-9 years, and 10-14 years old) that teach more than just kicking and punching; they are designed to develop the student as a whole. With their own age-specific SKILLZ program, each student trains to become a better version of themselves -- more so than any other sport or activity available today! Our classes are customized to use traditional, disciplined Taekwondo training, combined with fun and exciting drills. This format gives children the best of both worlds -- the focus, confidence, discipline, and respect that is provided by traditional training, and also a whole lot of fun! Contact us to get your child started – we’d love to partner with you to set your child up for success in life!

Summer's over. This is the easiest time all year to start something that actually builds toward something.

Every class moves you toward a skill, a belt, a sharper version of you.

More than anything else, we hear about a child finally standing up for themselves at school — using something they practice here without even realizing it.

We can't take full credit, but we're proud to be part of it.

Thank you for trusting us with your son or daughter. ❤️

It's easy to say no to someone you don't like. It's a lot harder to say no to a friend.

That's the skill we build here — one class at a time.

An hour after school that isn't a screen. 🥋

Just a mat, a belt, and a child who leaves class a little more sure of themselves than when they walked in.

Save this for open house or parent-teacher week.

Sitting quietly isn't the same as paying attention — three signs your child is actually taking it in, not just sitting through it.

1. They can repeat the instruction back in their own words, not just nod.
2. They try it themselves before asking you to do it for them.
3. They catch and correct their own mistake, without being told.

We watch for the same three on the mat.

A new school year means a new teacher asking for focus, patience, and listening — for hours at a time.

Here, your child builds exactly that: the ability to listen, follow instructions, and stay engaged, one class at a time.

Save this one.

Staying calm under pressure isn't just a mat skill — it's a life one. Three basics every child should know before they need them.

1. How to call for help and give their address.
2. How to apply pressure to a cut and stay put until help arrives.
3. How to take one slow breath before reacting to a scary moment.
