Children

(Ages 6-12)


Park’s Tae Kwon Do Academy is more than just another after school activity. Exciting yet disciplined classes hold a child’s attention, thus improving his or her ability to learn. Learning builds a sense of accomplishment, self-confidence will grow – the first part of a strong foundation.

Along with building self-confidence, we weave traditional values into the fabric of each class. Courage, justice, generosity, politeness, honor, honesty, and loyalty, these seven traditional values – the second part of a strong foundation – date back to the Hwa Rang.

In addition your child will develop a non-quitting spirit to overcome life’s obstacles. A non-quitting spirit – the third part of a strong foundation – makes any goal reachable.

The complete foundation helps children excel in school, sports and the arts. It ensures that they will make the right decisions when confronted with negative peer pressure. They will feel secure and confident.
