Why Kids Who Train in Taekwondo Do Better in High School – A Look at Surrey-Based Programs Near Newton Elementary school

🥋 
Parents near Newton Elementary School, Payal Business Centre, and Sikh Academy School in Surrey are discovering a powerful taekwondo secret: kids who train in taekwondo often perform better academically and socially in high school.
​

At Jong Kim Martial Arts Surrey, located conveniently near these key landmarks, we’ve witnessed firsthand how structured martial arts training builds skills that transfer beyond the dojang (training hall) and into the classroom.


Convenient Location Near Newton Elementary, Payal Business Centre & Sikh Academy

📍 
Our taekwondo school is easily accessible for families living or working near:
  • 📚 Newton Elementary School
  • 🏢 Payal Business Centre (off 72 Ave and 128 St)
  • 🕌 Sikh Academy School
  • 🛒 Nearby shopping hubs like Newton Town Centre and King's Cross Shopping Centre
  • 🚌 Transit routes along 72 Ave, 128 St, and Newton Exchange
This makes Jong Kim Martial Arts a convenient choice for busy families balancing school, work, and extracurricular activities.


How Taekwondo Helps Kids Succeed Academically and Socially

🧠 
Taekwondo is not just a sport — it’s a disciplined martial art that teaches values and skills that directly impact school success, including:
​
1. Improved Focus and Discipline
Taekwondo requires concentration, memorization of forms (patterns), and mastery of techniques. These practices help kids develop sharper focus and discipline, improving their ability to stay on task during schoolwork and exams.

2. Better Time Management
Balancing training schedules with schoolwork teaches kids how to manage their time effectively, a skill that becomes essential in high school and beyond.


3. Boosted Confidence and Self-Esteem
Progressing through belt ranks provides clear goals and rewards, helping kids build confidence. This self-assurance encourages participation in class, presentations, and social activities at school.


4. Stress Relief and Emotional Control
The physical activity and mental focus in taekwondo help students manage stress and anxiety, leading to better emotional regulation during challenging high school years.


5. Respect and Teamwork
Taekwondo’s emphasis on respect for instructors and peers translates into positive behavior at school and improved relationships with teachers and classmates.
