Are you ready to learn some new ninja moves? This one day class for ages 6-10 is designed to teach you some of the basics of TaeKwonDo. In this class we will learn kicks, blocks, punches, and more. Classes all start and end with meditation. We will go over why this is important and the different things we can focus on while meditating. Following that, we will participate in a dynamic stretching routine designed to stretch and prepare the different muscles we will need to use in class. Once our bodies and minds are prepared we will start learning all the different techniques including, three different kicks, three blocks, proper punching position, and three different stances, At the end of class we put all the things we have learned into a defense drill designed to help us get moving and practicing in a practical way.
Learning Goals
This martial arts system is structured around our six principles: Be polite, be patient, be alert, be brave, do your best, and respect yourself and others. Throughout class and while learning the different techniques we choose many of these principals and use them to help us learn new skills. At the end of class students will be asked ways that they can use one of those principals at home as well as how they used it in class.

Parental Guidance

Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Mrs. Telly and I love training in martial arts. I am a second degree black belt and instructor for Taekwondo and a level 3 instructor for Krav Maga (self defense hand to hand combat). I have been teaching martial arts and self defense for over 5 years. My husband and I run our own martial arts school in the evenings with our two daughters. I love learning new skills and finding fun ways to teach them to my students. Learning should be fun and Taekwondo makes learning fun for me. I earned my Bachelors degree in therapeutic recreation and youth leadership. This degree has helped me find new ways of teaching and understanding and has led me to become the senior adaptive instructor at our martial arts school. I work with students of all abilities starting from the age of 4. The last year we have been working on creating online curriculum and resources for students to learn from and use at home. With these resources and classes, I can't wait to see you in class!
