TAEKWONDO
Taekwondo is a martial art that originates from Korea. It combines combat techniques, self-defense, sport, exercise, and in some cases meditation and philosophy. Taekwondo is the world's most popular martial art with an an estimated 30 million practitioners in 150 countries.
Taekwondo is popular with people of both genders and of many ages. Physically, taekwondo develops strength, speed, balance, flexibility, and stamina.
Since 2000, Taekwondo has been one of only two Asian martial arts (the other being judo) that are included in the Olympic Games.
For children, Taekwondo is a total learning activity. Lessons are tailored to your child's age and skill level. All children are taught at their own pace and are never pressured to perform beyond their capabilities.
Your child begins by practicing basic patterns and forms, board breaking, kicking, blocking, striking, and punching. These fundamental skills increase your child's physical coordination, flexibility, balance, and mental acumen.
Taekwondo emphasizes moral development as well. Children learn respect for themselves and others, heightened concentration, and increased self-discipline and self-restraint. The self-discipline that develops as a result of learning and practicing the techniques usually carries over into other areas of the child's life.
School grades often improve as your child learns to focus on objectives and to work toward achievement. The socialization skills, self-discipline and self-respect which Taekwondo develops can provide your child with the skills and mindset necessary to resist destructive peer pressure.
