Specific Taekwondo Benefits for Kids in Surrey
For children, taekwondo is highly effective in building foundational skills and channeling energy in a structured, playful environment.
Motor Skills and Coordination:
Younger children develop basic motor skills like jumping, balancing, and hopping. Training helps them develop better body awareness and coordination, which is crucial during their physical development stage.
Fundamental Discipline:
Discipline for kids starts with simple, consistent rules, such as bowing when entering the dojo, standing still, and taking turns. This structured environment helps them learn to follow instructions and respect authority, which translates to better behavior at home and in school.
Focus and Attention Span:
Taekwondo Classes for children are often shorter and use games and varied activities to keep their developing attention spans engaged. The mental demands of remembering simple sequences (forms) help to gradually strengthen concentration skills.
Social Skills Development:
Kids learn to interact with peers in a supportive environment, practicing teamwork through partner drills and group activities, and developing empathy and communication skills.
Healthy Outlet for Energy:
Taekwondo provide a safe, positive, and structured way for children with high energy levels (or conditions like ADHD) to burn off excess energy, reducing restlessness and improving self-regulation.

Absolutely phenomenal place. My son went there for over 10+ years. I personally went there for over 4+ years. Master Eddie Kim is an awesome person!! My son went through a tough time in school getting bullied through elementary and most of high school. Master Kim taught my son how to respect and love himself and helped groom him into the confident, strong willed man he is now. I can never thank him enough for helping to shape him and teaching him the art of self discipline, self worth and the strength to succeed in his life. Not to mention he is a tough individual. I recommend anyone who want their children to learn all of the above, go and see him. Thank you again Master Eddie Kim for being a part of our life. You will always be considered part of our family as I know we will always be a part of the Kim family!! Greatest taekwondo school in Surrey!
