Taekinda Program
4 Year Olds
The Taekinda Program is specifically designed to meet the learning and development needs of 4 year olds. It provides a basic introduction to taekwondo, supporting the development of whole-body co-ordination through 10 key complex motor skills.
A child’s capacity to listen and follow instruction grows as they learn to self-regulate, understanding expectations of when it’s time to play and time to listen or be still. We compliment what they’re learning at home and in kindergarten, ready for a smooth and confident transition to school life.

Taekwondo Ninjas
5-6 Year Olds
The Ninja Program is one of the most powerful programs that we offer at Team Carlo. Parents witness positive changes in their child’s development, attributing it to the influence of taekwondo.
The first 7 years of a child’s life are the most impressionable as they download all of their subconscious programs. Our aim is to help them upload key foundation life skills that will support their learning and development for the rest of their life e.g focus, discipline, control.
We introduce challenging motor martial arts skills plus scenario based, age-appropriate self-defence techniques. The Ninja Program curriculum provides the base training for a strong transition to the Warrior Program at age 7.

Adolescence can be a challenging time in a young person’s life. Our aim is to provide a positive and safe learning environment for your child to learn taekwondo whilst being surrounded and guided by positive role models.
Our curriculum content and life skills, like all of our programs, are age-appropriate. We focus on the challenges teens face during high school e.g. social media and we adapt the pitch so it’s relevant and relatable. The technical knowledge and execution expectation is higher as they progress through the ranks.
We provide positive influence and messaging regarding lifestyle choices e.g. hydration, fuel and rest. As they mature into young adults, they will have the knowledge, experience and maturity to care for their health and well-being.
