Children There Are No Tough Guys

This is the obvious reason kids should do Taekwondo in this day and age - to get active and moving. In case you haven’t noticed, we have an epidemic when it comes to our nation’s obesity problem. We’re also increasingly unfit in addition to being overweight. The problem is particularly alarming as it relates to our kids. Youth sports and physical education programs are great, but not every kid is an athlete and many schools no longer offer PE. Taekwondo offer many benefits, but when it comes to fitness, becoming a true martial artist means becoming a supremely fit person.

The right martial arts school will teach your child that there are no tough guys. Every martial artist ultimately learns this sense of respect and true confidence. Your child will learn that confidence and respect for others comes from a deep sense of self-knowledge.

A martial artist is taught to see, feel, and listen - both internally and externally. Tapping into intuition, fear, and courage are examples of being able to put the physical together with the mental. How often have we heard the phrase “being paralyzed with fear”? Being able to combat such a thing is what you learn in the martial arts.

We are OPEN! Come in today to sign up the kids for after-school programs.

The Way Of The Foot & Fist

Taekwondo originated in Korea more than 2,300 years ago. Translated, it means "the way of the foot and fist," and as that name suggests, it was originally developed by warriors. But this ancient practice is about more than just physical defense. Children learn symmetrical body exercises for unarmed combat, including kicks, punches, jumping and dodging.

More importantly, though, taekwondo practice develops persistence, self-discipline and kindness. Many participants find an increased feeling of peace and balance. Master Fransisco Fiallos, of TKD Club America in Deltona, Florida says the right coach will teach taekwondo as an empowering way of life, encouraging students to apply the social and character skills learned in the classroom to their home and school lives.

A high-quality taekwondo program teaches children to focus and persist at a task. Highly energetic children and children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, known as ADHD, especially benefit from the structure and expectations of taekwondo, but the benefits extend to all children.

The world can be an overwhelming place for kids, and anger is a common response. Kids don't always know how to express anger and frustration, but participating in taekwondo can help. While it's not OK for a child to punch or hit a younger sibling, it is OK to kick and punch during a taekwondo lesson. Children learn to harness angry feelings and use them productively.

We are OPEN! Come in today to sign up the kids for after-school programs.

Taekwondo keeps seniors moving

It's important to remember, when taking Taekwondo as a senior, that you need to listen to your body during the session. If you become short of breath or a muscle starts to strain, simply rest. No one is going to tell you to keep going to the point of pain. Any class that gets a senior moving and up & about is the right class for them.

Taekwondo for seniors can allow time for socialization and interactions with other like-minded seniors.  Who better to discuss the day with than with other seniors in the same Taekwondo class? New bonds and friendships can be made very easily in a Taekwondo class. And even better is that there is a common goal whether it be better coordination, improved brain function, or just peer contact. There is something for any senior when taking Taekwondo.

Seniors taking Taekwondo may not be jumping off walls or doing backflips, but that should not keep them from participating in a Taekwondo class. It has been show that seniors who participate in martial arts, especially Taekwondo, have better cognitive functioning. That can be a fear of many seniors: forgetting facts and decreased brain activity. Sometimes a crossword can only do so much. Seniors need movement and phsyical exercise. Why not Taekwondo for seniors?
