For Parents

Everyone gets to play; no one sits on the bench!

Tae Kwon Do provides a unique experience for children of all ages. Unlike many team sports, it cultivates each child’s individual strengths and allows everyone to develop at their own pace.  It also fosters a sense of community, forming life-long bonds between both training partners and teachers.  Afternoon classes for children ages 5-12 combine hard work with fun activities.

Tae Kwon Do…

• Improves etiquette and encourages cooperation with others.
• Is an excellent cross-training activity and off-season exercise for children involved in other sports.
• Increases confidence and assertiveness in shy children.
• Enhances gross and fine motor skills.
• Encourages physical activity and promotes weight loss.
• Provides an enjoyable and disciplined setting for LD and ADHD children, improving their attention span and listening skills.
• Offers short and long term goals through regular belt tests, which foster a sense of accomplishment and motivate students to continue training.

Parents are invited to bring their child in for a free introductory class.  All students are encouraged to attend classes at least twice a week – check the posted schedule for convenient class times.  Please feel free to contact us for further information

Two or three times a year children are invited to a TKD sleepover at the Dojhang.
