Our Teaching Concept
The Karate for Kids system is based on a lifetime learning concept in addition to technical skills.
Our basic building blocks for the Karate for Kids system are:
Courtesy
Respect
Confidence
Honestly
Perseverance
Self Discipline
Self Awareness
Self Esteem
Self ConfidenceIt doesn't come naturally for many children, but rather is developed over a period of time. As a child accomplishes new goals, his or her confidence level increases. Children become more self confident in Karate because they progress individually at their own pace and are not judged against others.
Self DefenseChildren's self defense takes many forms. Karate teaches children to think instead of panic in potentially dangerous situations, as well as how to react to threats.
Better Grades!
Being a Karate Kid also means being a better student. All kids in the Karate for Kids program learn skills such as following directions, paying attention in class, and participate in class activities that help them to become better students.
Every Child Wins
In Karate, every kid can be a winner instead of a bench sitter because Karate allows children to reach for their own potential rather than directly competing against other kids.
CoordinationKarate challenges the entire body, developing coordination, balance, agility and poise, often neglected in many team sports available to children in this age group.
W.J. Choi Tae Kwon Do, USA is one of serveral of Senior Master W.J. Choi's Taekwondo, USA schools, and a member of the world's largest martial arts organization, the The American Taekwondo Association®. 
The organization has thrived since 1969 as a result of Eternal Grand Master Lee's lifetime vision of sharing the Spirit of Songahm and positive impact of martial arts training with as many people as possible.
We offer what we believe is the best martial arts in the world. Taekwondo is an exciting and powerful martial art known for its dynamic kicking and hand techniques. The style of Taekwondo supported by the ATA is known as Songahm Taekwondo, a style specifically developed over 20 years time by Eternal Grand Master H.U. Lee to make taekwondo accessible to anyone willing to learn, and to truly reflect Taekwondo and the strength and beauty of its kicking techniques.
We realize that each student possesses different physical abilities. Size and strength varies with each individual. Once you have acquired a strong foundation in the basics, our program will enhance your physical capabilities, and maximize your self-defense skills.
At W.J. Choi Tae Kwon Do, USA, we are not interested in just teaching self defense, we are interested in the complete personal development of each student. Individual attention is a feature of each class allowing students to progress quickly and confidently towards their personal goals. Our instructors take their responsibility seriously as role models for younger students, teaching them the importance of strong character, leadership and good values.
Our curriculum is based on two major concepts: "Positive Mental Attitude" and "High Goal Setting". We believe so strongly in our program that we promise to give you and your family the most professional, well supervised quality classes!
