Reasons To Enroll and Keep Your
child at Mid-California Tae Kwon Do
1.
Spiritual Growth: The
most critical reason for enrolling in martial arts is for spiritual growth.
Spiritual growth and spiritual maturity strengthen character development,
enhance behavior, and develop proper attitudes of physical fitness and self
defense. All critical areas of growth are derived from the spiritual
strength of our lives. We teach young men that balance between personal
power and meekness are the key to becoming the men we ought to become.
Further, developing power for ladies should be coupled with meekness and
humility. We believe that it is possible to be powerful and still exhibit
meekness and humility. It is a life changing combination.
2. Character
Development:
Personal discipline, self-control, patience, confidence, courage,
fortitude, etc., are the inner qualities needed to understand how to live our
lives properly, in public view or in private. The Instructors at Mid-California Tae Kwon Do wish to reinforce
what is already being taught at home, and seek to establish a pattern of godly
character development in the students.
3.
Behavior:
A good martial arts program can facilitate the growth of the child in critical
areas of life, such as: improving attention span, respect for others, obedience
to parents and other authority structures. The instructors at Mid-California Tae Kwon Do work at building a
proper and positive relationship with the students to better facilitate
communication, a friendly but consistent environment to learn, and mutual
respect. The relationship built between student and the instructor can last a
lifetime and have a huge positive impact on a child's life.
4.
Physical Fitness:
When we are physically fit, we do feel better about ourselves. Along with
other important areas of growth we must work at being healthy and physically
fit.
5. Self Defense:
Self-defense is an obvious reason to begin, and continue training
in martial arts. Self-defense classes should include self-defense applications,
conflict resolution, personal accountability and avoiding conflict.
