KIDTKD: Tae Kwon-Do For Children
 At the Harris Tae Kwon-Do School, we teach skills for life. Our age–specific approach to teaching Tae Kwon-Do means that each child will be challenged to maximise his or her potential. Every child and youth that comes to learn Tae Kwon-Do will be put through a systematic and progressive programme to hone their skills in
self-defence, as well as improve confidence, fitness, flexibility and co-ordination.
What are benefits of Tae Kwon-Do for children?
 |
Self Confidence – It does not come naturally for many children, but rather is developed over a period of time. As a child accomplishes new goals, his or her confidence level increases. Children become more self-confidence in Tae Kwon-Do because they progress individually at their own pace and are not judged against others. |
 |
Self-Defence – Children‘s self-defence takes many forms. Tae Kwon-Do teaches children to think instead of panic in potentially serious situations as well as how to react to threats from other kids. |
 |
Better Grades – Being a Tae Kwon-Do kid also means being a better student. All kids in the Tae Kwon-Do programme learn skills, such as following directions, paying attention in class, and participate in class activities that help them to become better students. |
 |
Every Child Wins – Tae Kwon-Do allows children to reach own potential rather than directly competing against other kids. |
 |
Co-ordination – Tae Kwon-Do challenges the entire body, developing co-ordination, balance, agility, and poise …qualities often neglected in many team sports available to children in the age group. |
|
Fun – Tae Kwon-Do lessons are a dynamic and challenging approach to the martial arts for children who are athletic, energetic, awkward, or shy, cold, nice. Or maybe even a little wild once in a while. |
