Martial Arts for Kids
There are many benefits that children get out of consistent martial arts training, both physical and emotional. Kids that train regularly gain:
increased concentration and focus
self-confidence
a love for physical activity (without even realizing it!)
the ability to set goals and see them through
increased speed, stamina, and flexibility
friendships within a supportive community of peers
“Watching the confidence bloom in my child who was previously very shy and anxious has been amazing...The level of discipline and determination to succeed has been inspiring to witness.”
Classes for 4 and 5 year olds
We offer separate classes for kids ages 4 and 5 where they learn the basic foundations of Taekwondo as well as improve their coordination, balance, and agility. At Fakhoury Academy of Taekwondo we believe that children that young are capable of beginning to learn martial arts and we have seen many students who start that young and continue on into their teen years and earn their black belts. During their half an hour class students work on basic drills as well as exercise through games designed to target certain physical areas such as jumping and balance.
