Instructor Michelle Evans Cho Dan Bo (Black Belt in training)
Welcome to the World Karate Kids Program. Our Tiny Tigers
and Little Dragons programs introduce children ages 3 through 7 to
the positive influences of the martial arts by stressing self
discipline and positive values.
One of the best gifts you can provide for your children is the opportunity to possess the power of a successful life. What are the powers? Patience, Concentration, Humility, Self-discipline, Self-Control, and a Strong Healthy Body with good Mental and Physical Coordination. Our Karate Kids Program is unique in the physical education area as it is not merely a form of "self - defense." It is a Total Learning and Improvement activity. Children learning Tang Soo Do begin by practicing the basic skills, which are the foundation of this art. These skills improve and build coordination and balance.
We
are dedicated to your child's development, growth and achievement.
After a few months of training, each child should show dramatic
changes, such as lower anxiety levels, an increased sense of
responsibility, and heightened self-esteem. Most will also begin to
show improvement in their school studies. Their training by one of
our qualified instructors could be the priceless gift of starting your
child off properly on their road to a happy, successful life.
I look forward to working with each child and their families as they begin their magical journey on the road of Our Tang Soo Do Program. We believe in, and value, the education and character of your child.
The program has a rotating curriculum. which runs for ten weeks, then takes a
two week break and then resumes with the next level.
