Our Programs
:: ATA Express ::
This class is a definite "must watch". Four to six year olds standing
still, listening, and following directions while having fun? YES! It is
possible. With this age group it is our goal to teach them the
basics in Taekwondo while they are learning to "watch the teacher,
be still, and follow directions". Come by and see how much fun
they are having in this structured environment
These boys and girls can go! The one value that is stressed with
these karate kids is effort. They are taught if they put effort in
whatever they do, they can achieve their goals. Without goals, kids
will often float from one sport or activity to another often feeling like
they have failed. From the first day in our program they are taught to
see a goal and to achieve it. Some are short team while others are
long term and like anything worthwhile, like a Black Belt or a college
degree it takes effort and perseverance. If self control, courtesy and
respect are values you would like to see reinforced, come by and
check out our program.
