CHOOSING A TAEKWONDO SCHOOL
As you choose a Taekwondo Academy, one of the most important factors is the academy’s accreditation. By following the Kukkiwon/MooDukKwan standards and their teaching system, it allows us to certify that as the student moves through the ranks, that the belt levels they achieve are recognized. There are many martial arts "mills" that turn out students and hand them black belts, but the belts would not be recognized outside of that specific studio. Kukkiwon rank is the most sought after Taekwondo rank in the world, and is considered the gold star standard amongst the Taekwondo community. Students with Kukkiwon rank are recognized world-wide and are looked on with great respect by the Taekwondo community.
DID YOU KNOW...?
There are many reasons to enroll your child(ren) and keep them training at Cameron Park Family Taekwondo Academy. Taekwondo builds self confidence and teaches discipline which will provide a solid foundation from which your children will develop strong character. While studying Taekwondo is fun, children will be learning important lessons in values and respect that will shape how they view the world around them. Although we teach to avoid confrontations, if the need arises your child(ren) can be secure in their knowledge of how to defend themselves from physical harm. This is the power derived from Taekwondo.
Taekwondo builds self-confidence. It is a physical and demanding “sport”. Children who participate and progress in taekwondo will develop a positive attitude that they can take with them to help accomplish other important tasks and face challenges. Our academy is dedicated to making your children feel accepted as well as motivated. Our Academy instructors focus on providing children with a positive atmosphere where they can build their confidence, even after a bad day at school or playing a sport. It’s a place where they’ll find support when they feel down or discouraged. We are ready and able to give your children the additional support to face life’s challenges and stay on the right path.
In addition to the structure you provide at home, Taekwondo also provides your child with discipline. This involves coming to class on time and following the rules and policy of our academy. It also concerns learning to respect themselves and others, which is an important goal that we strive to instill in our students. Our Academy instructors teach children not to feel that they can’t complete a task because it’s too hard or because they’ve failed the first time. Instead we teach them to relax, regroup and give 100% effort again. The discipline that they learn helps them to stay focused and work hard to accomplish their goals.
DID YOU KNOW...?
Taekwondo is a tool that can help your children in other sports, as well as keeping them in shape and healthy. Many drills that we practice enhance skills they will need in other extra-curricular activities. For example, proper balance and hand-eye coordination are skills that are essential in sports such as baseball, football, gymnastics and soccer. Martial arts training can give your child(ren) the competitive edge.
Through Taekwondo your children will learn many valuable lessons that will help them throughout their lives. The best thing about it is that it’s fun. They may not even realize that they are learning all these “values”. It’s not only enjoyable for the kids, it’s also enjoyable for the parents. To watch your children learn new skills and watch them improve will fill you with pride. But why stay on the sidelines? Taekwondo is an activity that you can do as a family. It’s a way of spending more quality time with your children and that is invaluable in today’s hectic world.
Taekwondo is an art form that has existed for many centuries and is taught around the world today. It’s teachings are inspiring and unique. The values and lessons of taekwondo can assist your children in becoming better citizens and becoming better equipped to handle the many situations that they will face in their academic and personal lives.
