Karate for Kids & Tiny Tigers
There are many reasons for kids to become involved in the martial
arts. We have developed a program based on traditional Taekwondo for kids
called Karate
for Kids. The Karate for Kids system is based on a lifetime
learning concept in addition to technical skills.
In addition to our internationally recognized "Karate for
Kids" program, we offer the Taekwondo for Tiny
Tigers program. The Tiny
Tigers program was developed specifically for preschool age children ages 3
through 6. This program offers children a strong foundation in essential character
qualities such as courtesy, respect, and discipline. In addition, the program
is designed to improve children's motor skills and enhance their ability to
pay attention and follow directions.
Martial Arts for Teens & Adults We train our students to the best of their ability. Some students
come to us in shape, while other have come to us 100 pounds over weight.
Most come to us with limited flexibility. Adults start
at any age,
as we have had some adults who started as late as age 65, and have
still earned their black belts. As a student, you are looked upon as
an individual, never compared to anyone else. Our instructors will
be there every step of the way. All that is expected of you is a willingness
to try. Here are some benefits you can expect from training in Taekwondo
are
fitness, self defense and self confidence.
