Instructors

ACTA Minnesota Instructors

At ACTA Minnesota we are dedicated to providing excellent, consistent education to all our students. All of our head and assistant instructors are certified and attend quarterly instructor seminars to ensure the highest quality instruction.

For students who are interested in becoming an instructor, we offer a dedicated training program. Junior black belts (13 yrs+) may join our Junior Leader program to gain experience working with lower ranking students, running drills, and being a leader in class. Students who are over 18 years or older may apply to be an Assistant Trainee Instructor (ATI) where they will learn how to teach forms, run class, and generally prepare to become a fully certified instructor. For more information on the requirements, benefits, and application process please see our Instructor Program page.

Below is more information on each of our certified instructors. Feel free to reach out with any questions about our instructor program on our contact page,
