How Taekwondo For Kids Teaches Discipline – Go2TaeKwondo

As a martial arts instructor, I have been teaching Taekwondo for kids for many years. During that time, I have found parents bring their children to our unique Taekwondo program for a variety of reasons. Some kids are overweight and Taekwondo for Kids helps them to slim down, improve their body image and increase self-esteem. Others are bullied at school or lack confidence and find that martial arts bolsters their self-worth and helps them develop the confidence to be leaders. However, a majority of parents seem to appreciate that our Taekwondo for Kids program is a great means of teaching their children better discipline.

Studying martial arts is hard work for anyone. To improve at it requires pushing yourself to surpass previous boundaries, whether they are physical, mental or otherwise. Our Taekwondo for Kids program is an excellent means of instilling a sense of the value of this hard work in young people. Many kids come into the Taekwondo for Kids program lacking focus or direction. Many others have had disciplinary problems at home or at school. Taekwondo for Kids teaches even the most rambunctious among them to be good citizens, show respect and get along well with others.

Martial Arts is a physical discipline and to progress to the next level you must apply yourself. For students to do well in our Taekwondo for Kids program, they must apply themselves, often with a focus and determination they have not known before. Many parents observe that after some time in the Taekwondo for Kids program, their once rambunctious kids begin to carry that focus and determination over into other areas of their life like their school work.

As a black belt certified instructor with decades of teaching experience, part of my work has been to develop Martial Arts’ unique Taekwondo for Kids Life Skills system. This system was developed in order to help children with various essential life skills such as, respect, courtesy, self-discipline, self-esteem, self-confidence, and listening skills. Some common results observed by parents whose children participate in the Karate for Kids program include improved grades at school and displaying better social skills when interacting with their peers.

Our Taekwondo for Kids program is intended to assist students in three fundamental areas off the martial arts mat. These are at school at home and socially. We also invite parents to create their own “wish list” to better allow our instructors to target specific problem behaviors and help minimize or eliminate them. And while our Taekwondo for Kids program is ideal for teaching kids discipline, most kids stay in the program because it is fun.

You’re Never Too Old for Martial Arts – Go2TaeKwondo

Taught and practiced wisely, martial arts training can yield great benefits for students of all ages, even senior citizens with health problems.

Martial arts can be very good for body, mind, and spirit – even for students of middle age and beyond. In fact, it’s not uncommon to find students in their 60’s and much older training, competing, and growing as martial artists. Goals and intensity might be slightly different from karate for kids, but many of the same benefits can be achieved safely and enjoyably.

Some karate schools offer styles or special programs just for seniors, but almost any can be adapted for older students. Many can be practiced without too much time or exertion. Low speed, low impact martial arts can be done by seniors with conditions like obesity, muscle atrophy, joint problems, or low stamina. Here are some things seniors often learn while training the martial arts:

    Practical self-defense moves – unarmed Practical self-defense moves – walking cane, staff, or stick Safety awareness New friendships Exercise for all fitness levels

    Leadership skills like public speaking

When searching for a martial arts program that’s just right for seniors, the first thing to do is get information. Call around. Read about local schools and programs on the Internet. Visit karate studios in person to look for other seniors training – and talk with them! Many teachers understand the physical limits that some seniors have, and offer different exercises and pay special attention to their needs.

The next thing to do is consult your doctor. He or she can tell you how to get the most from martial arts training, which activities to avoid (like full contact sparring), and which are ideally suited for your fitness level and health conditions (like doing forms only). Some karate styles are better suited for seniors than others. But benefits can be obtained from nearly all. Some schools will recommend a doctor’s permission prior to enrollment or competition; others may require it.

Here are some of the benefits that seniors can get from martial arts training:

    Age appropriate self defense Sense of community Boost in self-confidence Sharper mental focus Better blood flow and breathing Improved immune system Better balance, posture, and body control Increased flexibility

    Stronger muscles and better body tone

Even with a doctor’s advice and a karate teacher’s special attention, martial arts seniors must know to “listen” to their own bodies. This doesn’t mean that sweat and muscle soreness should be avoided. Pain is a reality of life that we all must learn to cope with, regardless of age or condition. But knowing our individual limits is up to us as individuals. A positive mental attitude goes a long way, whether improving our selves through martial arts or doing anything else in life worth while!
