Benefits for Children

By practicing TaeKwonDo, your child will benefit in the following ways:

1. Physically – Develop good coordination, gain strength, increase flexibility, and improve cardiovascular conditioning.

2. Mentally – Improve self-confidence, gain better judgment, and develop self-control.

3. Philosophically – Honesty, always standing for justice, respect for self and others, loyalty and courtesy.

Incorporating these three aspects into your child’s life will build the ability to be strong, humble, gentle and to maintain self-respect. We guarantee that you WILL see a difference in your child within the first few weeks of classes.

TaeKwonDo philosophy emphasizes good health, happiness, generosity, and a sense of value of freedom, justice, and peace. All of these inspire both independence and coexistence.

TaeKwonDo is an art of humanity, a guide for the formation of outstanding character.

Children’s Class Format

Each class will begin with bowing, the Student’s Motto, and each student reciting their belt virtue. The head instructor then engages students in a short discussion about character values, TaeKwonDo tenets, or safety issues.

Next, students “warm-up” with traditional martial art techniques and kicking drills to loosen them up for class, warm their muscles and give them the opportunity to practice martial arts skills.

During the class, the students will practice requirements for upcoming belt testing. These include forms, one-step sparring, combinations, required techniques, self-defense, free sparring and/or board breaking.

Class is concluded with bowing, the School Motto, Student’s Oath and class dismissal.
