Children's Program

Our children's program is designed to promote the ideals of focus, respect, discipline, loyalty, and self-confidence, the most important aspects of a child's training. They must learn and understand the tenets of Taekwondo - "Taekwondo aims to achieve modesty, perseverance, self control and indomitable spirit" - and practice them inside and outside the dojang.

We aim to channel the interest children have in the martial arts into activities that enforce these ideals and are designed to increase physical conditioning and peer interaction, and sharpen coordination and motor skills. Most importantly, we believe that students will learn the many valuable lessons of the martial arts while actually having fun.

We teach children all levels of Taekwondo techniques, from traditional basics and forms to Olympic-style sparring and self-defense. Students are expected to give 100% in each class. Promotion tests are offered approximately every three months. Prior to testing, students are required to show that they are in good academic standing by presenting their report card, have attended an appropriate number of Taekwondo classes, and must receive Master Fall's permission to test.
