The energy potential of children is much higher than the ones of adults. They are not burdened by fear and sorrow, yet. In the age of computer games and related lack of exercise it get more and more important for kids to do sports and exercise. Taekwon-Do is a sport that challenges kids both, physically as well as mentally. Courtesy and respect towards others will be part not of the training only, it will manifest itself outside the Dojang, too.

Fun to move the body, to challenge it, to use excessive energies in a well targeted way is needed especially in the age between child and adult. A start of Taekwon-Do in this age promotes the usage of the full capability of the body and teaches to capture and train it as whole.

Traditional Taekwon-Do is a martial art for everyone, regardless of age. During acquisition of the techniques, coordination and agility are promoted, health is positively influenced, leading to general fitness and wellness. The correct learning of the basic techniques during beginners training is the foundation for further steps in Taekwon-Do.

Especially high kicks are a trademark of classic Taekwon-Do. The power for these high techniques originates in the center of the body, the underbelly (hapuk po). Whenever possible, kicks should be trained above head height. When someone is capable to enfold the energy up there, his techniques will have devastating impact when practiced with body height. Event longer distances or higher targets can be achieved by jumping techniques. One should also be aware that a foot-technique enfolds three times more power than hand-techniques. To learn the right technique takes time, quickly learnt is quickly lost. The slowly, continuous and correct learning will lead to the right technique and success in the long run.
