Martial arts are cool and exciting! But what do they teach your children other than cool kicks and punches? What makes them stand out and be worth your time and effort?
Taekwondo is all about teaching your kids life skills to not only survive, but to thrive! Our taekwondo programs teach valuable foundational skills that build character and strength.
Confidence
Our taekwondo programs for children from 3 to 10 are perfect confidence boosters. As your kids learn and master new martial arts techniques, they will improve their balance, physical skills, and overall body strength. Training steadily and seeing their efforts rewarded means a higher level of self-confidence!
Discipline
Discipline is a valuable skill that is becoming harder to learn for children in this day and age. Martial arts have an atmosphere of rituals and structure that help students hone their focus and ability to take in new information. This emphasis on discipline can provide great benefits. The discipline that is taught through martial arts will help your kids show up big elsewhere in life, whether that’s at home or at school.
Connecting with others
Martial arts can teach your kids how to connect with others on top of becoming more in tune with themselves. The martial arts programs are usually group-based, and can involve friendly competition and team bonding exercises. Children will also learn to respect others, whether that’s their peers or their elders.
Your kids can make long lasting friendships through martial arts. Team Carlo is also experienced in helping kids develop their conflict resolution skills when learning in a group, which can go a long way in life!
Concrete goal-setting
Taekwondo has a ranking system of coloured belts that corresponds to varying difficulty levels. Team Carlo helps children set goals in the journey of mastering martial arts. The ability to set and work towards concrete goals with satisfying, visible results can help create a sense of drive. This means your kids can learn to implement goal-setting and self-improvement life skills in their household tasks, schoolwork, and other places.
