Children's Taekwondo Classes

Children's Taekwondo (Ages 7+)

Sign your children up for a class with various physical, mental, and spiritual benefits at Cho's Taekwondo Academy. We provide Taekwondo classes with a holistic curriculum for children that focus on philosophy and well-being instead of just offense and defense. Grandmaster Hee Il Cho has over 60 years of experience working with kids of all ages and dispositions, giving him the experience necessary to offer worthwhile classes and great lessons.

At Cho's Taekwondo Academy, we are committed to providing children students with the tools and abilities to defend themselves, thrive, and succeed through childhood development and grow into confident, strong, happy, and well-mannered young men and women.

Our Youth Taekwondo Program offers a healthy balance of character development, physical education, and skills training. The bar is set high as we believe in cultivating confidence and maximizing individual potential. Self-defense is a core component, but we believe in and always encourage a non-violent resolution to conflict when possible. 

Classes are conducted in a traditional setting where discipline, respect, integrity, responsibility, and self-control are all nurtured. Children have fun, but at the same time are challenged to work hard, persevere, and ultimately achieve goals. Self-respect and self-confidence come from the truth of consistent earnest efforts and the skills that are acquired as a result of those efforts.

Our classes offer a structured, positive, and healthy environment that helps kids get a strong start on life. Children begin to develop habits every day, so let us help yours develop the right ones. Call us today to schedule your child's trial lesson!
