Kids Class (5-12 yrs)
Our Kids program at Ong’s Taekwondo Academy cover the following points:
- Physical Fitness and Conditioning
- Agility and Coordination
- Sportsmanship, Attitude and Discipline
- Self Defence and Taekwondo Techniques (including Olympic Sport Rules)
We recognize that a child’s ability to defend himself or herself is essential, but the tools a kid will need to develop into a well-rounded adult are far more important. Kids develop confidence and self-esteem as they progress through the program. Children learn respect, courtesy, and self-control as a result while participating in a well-rounded exercise program. Each of these traits enhances one’s attitude and academic performance
Our instructors use Taekwondo classes to assist your child set goals, work in a disciplined manner, and strive for success in their endeavors. As part of our program, we have included visible rewards such as different colored belts that symbolize growing levels of martial arts expertise and patches for specific project accomplishments such as honor roll. Even more vital than this, though, is the encouragement to keep going when things get tough, as well as the verbal acknowledgement of accomplishments and rewards obtained. Each of these components contributes to the child’s self-worth and enhances his or her character.
Taekwondo training instills both confidence and humility. It teaches kids to respect others while also standing up for themselves and what they believe in. It is one of the most effective ways to develop your child’s physical and mental strength.
