Children who acquire self-confidence at an early age are far more likely to succeed in their adult ambitions. Martial Arts training is arguably the best method of instilling confidence into children and at the same time emphasises the importance of respect and discipline. As a result of the fast and exciting nature of Martial Arts there are thousands of children participating throughout the UK. And worldwide there are millions. Our system of training is based on inner development and self-expression; concentration, focus, goal setting, self-achievement are the topics of discussion. Motor skill development, co-ordination, flexibility and self-awareness are the basics to the physical training. Children learn to reach their full potential through our confidence building martial arts programme. Caring Instructors provide expert training in a fun and safe environment to produce positive results. WomenTaeKwon-Do gives women confidence and fitness. It is an ideal form of exercise with a purpose and gives women the opportunity to perform against men on an equal footing. Mature studentsThere are many people who take up TaeKwon-Do in their late thirties or forties, and some progress to attain their black belt. As well as being a healthy form of exercise, TaeKwon-Do is also a great stress buster! People with disabilitiesTaeKwon-Do is a suitable form of exercise and self defence for people with a wide range of disabilities. This is because it is taught in a safe and well ordered environment by experienced instructors. Ethnic MinoritiesTaeKwon-Do was founded by General Choi to bring together people of all cultures. This has certainly been achieved with participants in over 100 countries and over 70 countries sending entrants to the world championships. ChampionshipsThere are many people who think that championships and tournaments are not strictly martial arts, and to a certain extent they are right. Championships do emphasise the sporting aspect of TaeKwon-Do. Competitive sport has benefits in its own right, and regular tournaments give students the opportunity to meet people from other parts of the country and from other nations and cultures. They allow long term frIendships to be developed and promote camaraderie between the schools or counties competing. They are also part of the process in developing self confidence and provide a shop window for everyone to see the skills of TaeKwon-Do competitors.
