We have geared this program specifically to the "unique" attention span of 3-5 year old children. The confidence and discipline your child develops now will stick with them for life, and they will become unstoppable in everything they do!
Goals of this Unique Program:

1. Develop social skills. One of the main focuses of our Tiny Tigers is to promote student’s social skills with other children and adults. Students learn to show respect for others with bowing, and to say encouraging comments to others. They lean to work and talk with adult teachers and helpers, and to introduce themselves to others. Students also work on being partners with others. Social skills are also developed through playing group games, and learning to follow instructions.

2. Develop motor skills. Every activity we do in classes has a definite purpose. While the students are having fun with games and relays, they are also developing motor skills appropriate for their age. This includes coordination skills, right and left side development, flexibility, muscle strength, timing, speed drills, mobility skills, etc. Tae Kwon Do is one of the best sports for overall development, and the coordination, strength, balance, and other skills transfer easily to other sports as well!

3. Promote self discipline. While we do make classes fun and exciting, there are also times when Tae Kwon Do requires work and focus to learn. This is where self discipline is gradually developed in our students: through practice, repetition, and memorization. In addition to physical self control, our students also learn how to control their emotions and behavior in class and at home.

4. Develop learning skills. The learning process is multifaceted. Learning involves the combination of mental, physical, and emotional aspects. Listening skills, following directions, becoming aware of one's body and how it moves in space...these are all skills that our students learn through our supportive and encouraging instruction techniques.

5. Teach child safety. During classes, we also cover rules to follow when around strangers, the correct way to talk on the phone or answer the door, our basic self defense techniques, and much more. Our goal is to teach these concepts in a nonthreatening environment through games, discussion and practice, with the comfort of parental involvement and trustful teachers.

6. Develop self confidence. You might consider the development of self confidence and self esteem as the culmination of all of the above points. Every Tae Kwon Do student has their own specific goals and desires. Our classes are structured to allow students to achieve mini goals, and build confidence. Students learn to apply this learning strategy not just in Tae Kwon Do training, but in all aspects of life.
