<\/a><\/p>\nNot sure your child is ready for martial arts classes?\u00a0BTC offers a chance for your child to try Taekwondo before making any time or financial commitments. We also understand that if children are excited about a new and challenging activity, they are an open book for growth and want to come back for more.<\/p>\n

Growing Children in Mind and Body<\/h2>\n
BTC offers a fun, energetic and safe atmosphere while staying committed to teaching children about being strong in mind and body. The benefits of Taekwondo for children go way beyond self-defence.<\/p>\n
Studies show that children grow academically, as well as physically and mentally when practicing martial arts. It’s probably the best after school activity around. Physically your child will learn to be fit, agile and coordinated. Taekwondo is a tremendous standalone fitness program as well as excellent cross training for other sports.<\/p>\n
Taekwondo teaches the principles of courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and indomitable spirit. Our young students learn life skills that help them navigate through school and beyond.<\/p>\n

Kids\u2019 Class Instructors<\/h3>\n
BTC Taekwondo Instructors have taught in Korea (the home of Taekwondo), hold black belts in a number of martial arts, serve on Taekwondo the State & National governing bodies and love what they do. Even with all their formal training and practice, they are nurturing and fun mentors.<\/p>\n
Our instructors\u2019 enthusiasm for teaching Taekwondo is contagious: just ask our kids. They never get tired of watching Instructor Will\u2019s aerial kicks. Their nurturing and easygoing approach will keep your child interested so they can reach their full potential.<\/p>\n
BTC requires their children\u2019s martial arts class instructors to undertake special training to ensure they bring out the best in each student. Our number one priority is to see your child succeed.<\/p>\n
