Benefits of the Little Dragon's Program:

Our goal is to help your pre-schooler be the best they can be at everything they put their minds to. The Little Dragons lessons focus on improving pre-school age children’s basic motor, learning and listening skills. Skills that will help them develop with a more confident and enthusiastic outlook and the benefits will include better focus at school, better listening at home and more ambition towards the future. We believe that the most important years of a child’s development are between the ages of 4 and 7 and our lessons will capture the imagination and enhance positive development in a fun and motivating way.

The skills we teach are comprised of physical and mental benefits and include focus, to improve your child’s listening skills and reaction skills.

Teamwork

Control
which builds confidence and leads to good decision making.

Balance

Physical Fitness

Of course, such hard training requires, and will develop, a strong and athletic body. For many people, this byproduct of the art becomes a reason in itself for continuing practice. Physical activity includes aerobic (blocking drills and forms) as well as anaerobic activity (sparring), strength training , and stretching (kicking drills). Regular practice will help you develop your body, maintain your health, and give you more energy.

Mental Clarity

Whether it is doing one more push up than you thought you could do, controlling your body through a complicated form that required both strength and balance, or focusing your energy into a punch that will break a board, Tae Kwon Do demands a firm control of mind over body. As the body becomes a physical manifestation of the mind, inattention, confusion, and lack of resolve will show themselves physically. Likewise, clarity of thought, focus, and confidence will result in clean, quick, crisp techniques. For many people, the strength of will and clarity of thought that is developed at practice becomes goes beyond Tae Kwon Do into day to day life.

In addition to the higher level mental benefits, many people find that they enjoy Tae Kwon Do, just as they will many sports. It can be challenging, exciting, and accessible for many people.
