Juniors (7- 14yrs)

Tang Soo Do is great for kids, and will help them develop much more than just their fitness. Whilst having fun and making friends, the benefits include gaining confidence, developing balance and co-ordination and learning self-defence, discipline and respect; all skills which will help them develop in what ever they chose to do in the future.

Being aware of the differences in how we learn, depending on our age and personal qualities, our instructors aim to make every class enjoyable and suitable for each child. Similarly to our little PUMA program, our Junior syllabus includes gradings & awards; mixing the teachings of traditional martial arts with fun and games in an active learning enviornment. Suitable for children from 7 years, our Juniors will not only develop their skills in the traditional martial art but will gain confidence and awareness of surrounding issues such as bullying and stranger awareness.

There are currently 3 adult sessions running per week, and you are welcome to train as a family or as an individual (family discounts available). Please see TSD Classes for more information.
