Little Ninjas Pre-School Tae Kwon Do
Ages 3-5
Little Ninjas is a class arranged in an easy-to-understand fashion that will help younger students to begin enjoying Tae Kwon Do at an early age. The perfect blend of gross motor skill building and fun! Our preschool martial arts program gives your little one the tools to surpass their development expectations. Students who begin this young in Tae Kwon Do (and just about anything else for that matter) tend to learn longer term. In class there will be an emphasis placed on the physical techniques so that the student’s body can begin growing with the movements. This includes lots of running, jumping, climbing and crawling in order to help use up some of the little ones’ almost-endless supply of energy. The very basics of Tae Kwon Do will be covered in this course, with additions of important outside-aspects for children of this age, such as learning stranger self defense, fire safety and (lost in the store) mall safety. This is one of the most popular courses due to its ability to keep young children interested, active and engaged! Students will be "sampling" the general classes to get an idea of what training in a regular class is like, so there may be other higher belts in the same class.
Family Tae Kwon Do Class
Ages 6 years to Adult
Tae Kwon Do is a wonderful activity to practice as a family! Parents will have a great time working out with their children in the same class. Tae Kwon Do has SO many benefits for both children AND adults that it makes it the perfect way to stay fit and have fun TOGETHER. For adults, TKD helps to increase flexibility, relieve stress, strengthen balance and learn life-saving self defense. In children, TKD helps to improve confidence, increase focus, build stronger physical skills like balance, coordination and agility, in addition to building great goal setting skills. No matter the reason for practicing Tae Kwon Do initially, students of the art benefit physically, mentally and spiritually. Practice Tae Kwon Do together but feel the benefits as an individual! Students will be "sampling" the general classes to get an idea of what training in a regular class is like, so there may be other higher belts in the same class.
Tae Kwon Do for Children
Ages 6-12 years
Tae Kwon Do is the Korean art of self-defense. This art is taught to children to instill self-discipline and promote physical fitness. They will learn new skills every time they train and enjoy a sense of accomplishment, more focus and concentration, respect for authority, and self defense. Confidence will build after each successful class is completed. This class also includes “mat chats” to help with various life skills such as bully prevention, responsibility, discipline, good manners and habits of a healthy lifestyle among others. Students will be "sampling" the general classes to get an idea of what training in a regular class is like, so there may be other higher belts in the same class.

Character Development Afterschool Programs
Character is a key component to what makes a person truly successful. In this program, children will learn to identify key character traits and how to make them a part of their daily life (i.e., courtesy, focus, respect, integrity, a positive attitude). In martial arts, the physical aspects have to go hand-in-hand with character development if one is to truly grow strong on the inside AND outside. In each class, students will learn some of the basic self-defense skills of Tae Kwon Do, a Korean martial art, which will be a great outlet for exercise as well as bringing the body and mind together to work in harmony, building each student’s confidence and self-esteem in order to be ready to assert themselves if necessary.
GRADUATION: March 20 at Chosun BBA for both Tuesday and Thursday Character Development sessions
