Give Your Child the Lifelong Gifts of Personal Success, Confidence, Discipline and Self-Defense. In Newmarket, our school is so much more than simply kicking and punching. We strive towards strong work ethics and discipline while still making it fun and challenging for our students. Our masters know how important it is to develop positive habits at an early stage and use this to build a solid martial arts and self defense foundation for students young and old.
Paying attention and following direction is imperative. Your child begins learning to focus on what is being performed while developing critical listening skills.
We will help your child develop both mental and physical discipline as they need to show respect to their teachers, fellow students and themselves.
Your child will learn several ways to protect himself, or his loved ones. Your child will be well prepared intimes of danger.
Confidence comes with achievement, so your child’s self-esteem level will get a boost with every new move they masters and every belt earned.
The martial arts were developed thousands of years ago as forms of self-defense. Taekwondo is the martial art developed in Korea. In terms of techniques, Taekwondo emphasizes kicks more than other martial arts, making it ideal for improving balance, flexibility, and endurance.
Our experience has shown that most children ages four and up are able to participate in Tae Kwon Do classes. At this age your child can take our trial lesson program, which allows our instructors to work with them one-on-one and evaluate their readiness for group classes.
Our instructors continually educate that martial arts are a form of exercise and self improvement, not a tool for bullying. Taekwondo students are taught to be humble, courteous, and respectful along with being careful about when and where they practice their self-defense skills.
Taekwondo is safe and fun for students of all ages and physical abilities. Classes are taught by expert instructors as students are shown techniques in a step-by-step manner at their own pace. A thorough stretching routine, matted flooring, and protective safety equipment are all part of our commitment to ensuring student safety.
Beginners are always welcome. Our beginner’s martial arts program makes it easy to get started. New students receive one-on-one instruction designed to provide an introduction to the basics of Taekwondo. Plus, our belt system allows all students to train at their own pace and improve their physical condition gradually.
