Childrens TAE KWON-DO

CHILDREN’s Program FOR 5-12 YEAR OLDS

Our children’s program is for kids aged 5-12 years old. Children learn punches, kicks, blocks, patterns and sparring in a controlled environment, through a range of activities, observing the traditions of Tae Kwon-Do. Your child will improve their coordination and concentration, and build discipline and confidence.

Classes also reinforce important skills for the classroom and home such as listening and following instructions. In our strict but fun martial arts environment, your children will gain not only Tae Kwon-Do skills, but skills for life.

After progressing through our children’s program, your child will have the required skills to join our teenager/adult program.

Our son has grown and developed into an amazing young man thanks to the discipline and teachings of Action Taekwondo. He’s never been more excited to participate in a sport and counts down the hours until class time. He has flourished under Connor’s guidance at the Conder classes.

I would like to acknowledge the dedication and professionalism of Action Tae Kwon Do's Instructor Alex. His devotion to his role as instructor and mentor can only be described as exceptional. He has been a positive and dependable influence on both our children, especially for our 7 year old daughter. Alex has trained her for over two years. With his guidance, she has grown to become a confident, caring and motivated young girl. He was also instrumental in helping her deal with bullying. Through Alex's patience and welcoming manner, our son is also determined to learn and will benefit from attending classes and being part of the Action Tae Kwon Do community.

Our 7 yo son loves Action TKD classes every Thursday. His instructor is an amazing young man, patient, kind and incredibly fit! The class not only teaches our son TKD techniques, it also teaches him respect, patience, endurance, accountability and perseverance. All of these are attributes that our son will need throughout life. Thank you, can not be said enough from us to Action TKD ❤️ ❤️

Action Tae Kwon Do is not just about self defence and fitness. These kids are learning respect, endurance, pride and the list goes on. The encouragement that my son has received is fantastic. There is no negative pressure on my son but encouragement to do the best (and that little bit more) he can achieve, he also has a fantastic female instructor that is a great role model to my son and all the other students in her class. I have really enjoyed watching her class grow over the last 12 months. Thank you seems so inadequate.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality We’ve just started and absolutely love it! I’ve never seen my son pay attention and follow instructions like this before. Usually he’s climbing the walls ignoring everyone at activities. The teachers were absolutely fantastic with the kids, fun but firm. We will definitely be back for many classes my son is so excited to work his way up to the next belt! Highly recommend and the pay as you go option is amazing. I wish more places did this

We have three children (11, 14, 16) learning Taekwondo in this centre with Instructor Steve, and couldn't be happier. The training has shown them self defence strategies as expected, but has also taught them discipline, trust in themselves, and given them pride in their hard work. Steve is a great instructor and influence on the kids.

Excellent instruction and training. Chief Instructor Alex does a great job and so too do all of the instructors. You can see the enthusiasm and dedication from them at gradings. Our child really looks up to their instructor and wants to be just like them. Seeing the adult students pop in after my child definitely makes me want to be a part of it too. Would highly recommend.

TAE KWON-DO CAN HELP PUT A STOP TO BULLYING AT SCHOOL

Most of us have been bullied at some stage in our lives and know how difficult it can be, especially for our children.

At Action Tae Kwon-Do our instructors can help your child learn skills to deal with bullies. In our classes your child will build confidence and courage through facing new challenges:

  • Turning up to the class for the first time is the first step.
  • Learning and mastering new techniques.
  • Performing techniques in front of classmates.
  • Building up strength and fitness through exercise.
  • Practicing self-defence techniques.
  • Participating in regular gradings in front of peers and spectators.
  • Obtaining new belts in recognition of achievement.

All of these challenges are opportunities for your child to build confidence and skills needed to stop a bully.

Your instructor will train and support your child through this learning process.
