TAEKWONDO FOR CHILDREN / KIDS
Martial Arts training is good for kids with a lot of energy and talent and also who are very shy. Taekwondo builds leadership skills, self-confidence and it particularly has positive benefits for kids. We view Taekwondo as a way to improve one’s body, mind and character, and not just a form of physical competition. Our Taekwondo lessons go far beyond teaching children how to punch and kick. We teach them about the importance of setting goals, help them to become strong and confident. We focus on providing a fun and safe learning environment for Children. The most important aspect in Martial arts is discipline which we strictly enforce in our classes. Children will build self- confidence, as they take on new challenges to further develop their character. As children learn the foundations of Taekwondo and the essentials of self-defense techniques, they will improve their strength, coordination and flexibility.
Parents greatly appreciate our Children’s program because they notice the changes in their child’s behavior and confidence within very short period. We accept students from 5 – 11 years old for this program. Our instructors will treat your child with respect as they share their knowledge and motivate your child with all their passion. At “JAMS”, we understand every child has a different learning curve and the ability to perform. Therefore, we try to teach them at their own pace. In this popular program, we introduce the basics of Taekwondo as a Martial art and as an Olympic sport. The duration of our classes are one hour long and it consists of warm up, stretching, physical conditioning, speed drills, Patterns, Target kicking, board breaking, basic sparring and self-defense techniques. This program is a perfect mix of fun, martial arts, confidence building and skill development, which children simply love! All students are treated as individuals. Each student is constantly encouraged to achieve their personal best. Not long after your child begins training at “JAMS”, you will notice important skills being developed in the child, including: Confidence, Activeness, Discipline, Fitness and Personal Growth. Classes are specific to children, encouraging interaction between one another and teamwork.
You’ll feel safe knowing your child is receiving finest instruction possible!
